Life's What You Make It: 21st birthday!

Some things that made today great:

My roommate told me I wasn't allowed to do anything on my own, including getting into my bed. Yes she did lift me into bed and tuck me in burrito style.

Fast & Testimony meeting was amazing!

Met some new friends (one who just got back from his mission in jersey & knows my friend who's serving there right now) & hung out with old friends.

It was actually hot in Rexburg today, 84* and sunny and we lay out in the sun for a while after church.

My roommates were sneaky-sneaky! Saturday when I was spending time with family then went to the store and bought some treats and invited pretty much the whole apt complex and some people from the ward to a party. Sam had my sister call her and asked her my favorite meal and stuff. Then when I was cleaning they took my phone and stole a number and invited my friend Lawren over for dinner. When we went to deliver things to people in our ward and were visiting with our FHE family my other roommates were home making homemade mac & cheese, kilbassi and potatoes. Then Jaimie made me a homemade ice cream cake and it was AMAZING!!

Then we were laying on blankets on the floor in the living room watching movie trailers, Lise gave me a package of the coconut cookies that are like girl scout cookies. Then i was asking why so many people were outside and Julia just said oh they are just talking. Then all of a sudden all of these people came into the apt, Lise and Jaimie brought two more cakes with candles! even though they're not allowed in the apts. and everyone sang. We all hung out for a while and just talked.

We went stadium singing!

Steph sent me a buzz lightyear lego watch, the coolest turtle card & my favorite candy bar.
