Happy Wednesday y’all!

Having Monday off has work has really gotten my week all confused. Doesn’t feel like it should be Wednesday already!

Here’s what I’m loving this week!

I’m loving baby shower planning! Tracy’s shower is this week, and I’m having so much fun getting everything ready. I just love planning showers! Can’t wait to share all of the fun details!

I’m loving that I got my summer vacation dates approved yesterday! I’m so ridiculously excited to be spending time this summer with these girls!

Neely and I are going to visit Meghan in June and Lindsey in August! CANNOT WAIT!

I’m loving my Project 365 pictures! Here’s my picture for yesterday!

Day 6-February 22nd

Bought this CD today, and I looooove it!

And, I’m loving this song!

What are you loving this week? Link up your loves with Jamie!

I’ve seen several bloggers and friends on Facebook doing Project 365 posts, and I’ve really been wanting to do it myself. For those of you who may not know about it, Project 365 involves taking a picture every single day for a year. I thought about starting at the beginning of the year, but decided to wait until my birthday and use it as a way to document my 25th year. I’m kinda excited! I’m going to play catch-up today, then from here on out, I’ll just post pictures at the end of my regular posts.

These will change your life!

Hey y’all! Thanks for all of the birthday wishes here, and on Twitter and Facebook! It was such a great day and great weekend.

Thursday, I had to work in the morning, but I took the rest of the day off. I spent part of the afternoon with Tracy, and I was so excited to finally meet her sweet babies! They are so sweet, and I love them so much already!

Thursday night, after a super quick dinner at Olive Garden, Teddie and I went to see the musical Beauty & the Beast! It was so awesome!

The show was so good, and we had such a great time!

Friday morning, I drove home, and I spent the afternoon getting my hair done. My blonde was growing out, and it was starting to look a bit trashy! :)

Friday night, we went out to our favorite Mexican restaurant to celebrate!

Our sweet friend Stevie.
Everyone has to wear the sombrero on their birthday!

K was very excited for me to open her card.

I miss playing piano so much, and I’m so excited to get back to playing!

Oreo wanted to play too!

Jessica got me this awesome mirror! It has our special sayings and inside jokes written all around the frame. I love it!

Saturday night, we went to dinner for Jessica’s birthday, and I spent the night with her. Such a fun night!

Our traditional special event pose!
We’ve been taking pictures like this since 9th grade!

So fun to celebrate both of our birthdays the same weekend!

It was like 2 a.m. We felt like we needed another picture!

It was a great weekend! I’m excited to see what 25 holds for me!

Hope you all had a great weekend!

Wow! Seriously, I cannot believe that today I’m 25 years old!

My favorite part of my birthday is that I get to celebrate my special day along with celebrating my bestie Jessica’s special day too!

Jessica and I were born three days apart! Every year, we get to celebrate both of our birthdays in the same weekend! We’ve been friends since kindergarten, so that’s a lot of birthdays we’ve gotten to spend together!

Here are some of our pictures from the last few years!

24th birthday weekend-2010

It’s Wednesday!

This has already been a super busy week, and next week is going to be about the same. I’m excited to have a 1/2 day off tomorrow, then all day Friday off.

Here’s what I’m loving this week!

I’m loving that Teddie and I are going to see Beauty & the Beast tomorrow night!

I’m thinking seeing a musical with one of your besties is a pretty awesome way to spend your birthday!

Yep, tomorrow is the day. 25! Not sure how I feel about that number…

Anyway, I’m loving that my bestie Jessica and I get to celebrate our big birthday together!

Jessica and I are three days apart, and I love that every year we get to celebrate together! We are doing my birthday Friday night and hers on Saturday night. It’s going to be a great weekend!

I’m loving all of the sweet Valentine’s Day and birthday cards I’m getting in the mail!

Thanks so so much to Neely, Lindsey, and Jessica! Y’all are too sweet!

I’m loving that three of my favorite girls have created Facebook pages for their blogs!

A Complete Waste of Makeup

Fabulous But Evil

A Girl in Pearls & A Boy with Toys

You should go ‘like’ all of them…like right now!

I’m loving this little fella!

When I took this picture, he was laying on my bed watching me clean. He loves to watch me upside down! Such a sweetie!

And, I’m loving this song! I really love Chris Young!

Did you watch the Grammys? Did your favorites win?

I seem to have failed last week at doing these challenges! Sorry girls! I’m going to try to do a catch-up!

Day 5: What I {LOVE} about my friends is…

No matter how many miles are between us…

No matter how long we’ve gone without seeing each other…

We can pick up right where we left off, and it’s like we’ve never been apart! We’ve been through so much together, and our friendships have gotten stronger! I don’t know what I’d do without these girls!

Day 6: I {LOVE} to blog because….

I have a space that is mine.

I have a place where I can just completely be me.

I can write about anything I want to!

I have made some wonderful friends, several that I talk to on a daily basis, either through texting or twitter. There are some that I’ve met in real life (Neely & Jamie!!), some that I’m spending time with this summer (Lindsey & Meghan!!), and many that I hope to meet someday!

Day 7: I {LOVE} when I feel beautiful/sexy/pretty! This happens when I…

I’m having a good hair day.

The outfit I put on in the morning fits just like I want it too.

My toenails are painted!

Be sure to link up all of your loves with Neely, Sam, or Courtney!
