Happy Birthday!


Last Wednesday was my birthday.  I turned 22 on the 2nd.  It was such a fun day. Ryan felt good so we went shopping and he totally spoiled me.  Then we took Allison to her first movie (Wall-E) and out to eat with my mom and younger brother.  Then we watched Fool's Gold (which I had been wanting to watch) while we got Alli ready for bed.  

Another Happy Birthday- to America.  I have always loved the 4th of July, I don't know if it is because my birthday is so close or what, but I look forward to it.  It was soo nice to be home for it this year instead of by myself somewhere random while Ryan is working.  Ryan was in pain so he didn't go to work (he actually wasn't supposed to drive on the pain meds).  I took Alli to the parade and then he came with us to a birthday barbecue with my family and cousins and then we watched fireworks.  I just love how for one day people think about how great America really is.  I love at the parade when the flag goes by and people actually stand and show respect (I get really frustrated however when people don't).   This is my grandpa holding Alli at the barbecue.
