Birthday Dinner

  I had my birthday dinner with my friends from church at the beginning of the month.  Saturday's for me were busy so I had to plan it on a Friday.  I only had four people come which I understood cause of work and we had issues with communication.  I still had a good time with my friends and the best part of the dinner was the cake :)  I decided to get a cake from Costco this year and it was all chocolate and it was so good.  I was so grateful to the people who did come, thanks to Karina, Kimberly, Stephanie and Jillian.  Since my cake was a half sheet there was a lot of left overs and my mom and I didn't mind finishing it up, it just took us over a week :)

Happy Birthday to Me!

  Today is my birthday and to celebrate I went to Disneyland with Kimberly and had so much fun. Our day started off a little late, Kimberly had to work late the night before so we got to the park around 12:30.  We went into California Adventure since it closed earlier and decided to eat lunch and then went on our first ride Soarin' Over California, such a great relaxing ride.  We went over to my favorite ride Toy Story Mania and even tough I did better this time I still didn't win.  I wanted to check out Cars Land since I've never been and one of the rides were shut down.  Kimberly and I went on the tire ride I forget the name and one of the other ride they have there too.  After spending 3 hours in California Adventure we headed over to Disneyland and while on our way out we stopped to get my a Happy Birthday pin.  For the rest of the day I felt really special because everyone was wishing me a Happy Birthday.  I was really bummed that Big Thunder Mountain was closed.  Before we went on any rides we got some ice cream on Main Street, it was yummy :)  I wanted to go on Pirates of Caribbean first and we got fast passes for Indiana Jones along the way and headed over there after Pirates.  After that I can't remember what order we did things but I will try my best. The rest of the rides we went on we really fun.  We went on the Haunted Mansion, the only thing we did in Fantasy Land was the Tea Cups and that was my favorite, we got a really good spin going and when the ride stopped everything around me started spinning.  We did the Matterhorn and I got a few bruises on my arm from it but it still was a fun ride and after went on It's A Small World After All.  We went walked over to Toon Town for the Roger Rabbit ride, but it was closed for the fireworks and walked over to Asteroid Blasters and I won!!!! :) We went over to Space Mountain but the wait time was 60 minutes and they weren't doing fast passes anymore, so we decided not to ride it.  We got something to eat and went on Pirates of the Caribbean again, did some shopping and went home.  Thank you to Brandon and Kimberly for a great birthday.  I had such a good time and I've got some more celebrating to do with family and friends.
