20

Two decades. Veinte. The big two zero. Whatever you may call it, it's strange having a 2 in front, instead of a "teen." The past 20 years have been the awesome. Here's to 20 more! To kind of "celebrate" living two decades, I made a bucket list of things to do in the month before I turned 20. I'm quite proud to say I completed the majority of my list! I...

• Ran 19 miles in less than a week.
• Temporarily dyed my hair dark brown (and actually liked it).
• Slept out under the stars in Moab, Utah.
• Sang Mamma Mia at karaoke night with my wonderful roommates at Pizza Pie Cafe.
• Read/listened to the Book of Mormon in four days (Literally finished at 11:59pm November 1st. Close call!)
• And completed a one month photo challenge. 

Unfortunately I can't add the spontaneous trip to Seattle or skinny dipping on the list, but maybe that can be for 25. ;)

The birthday celebrations were fabulous. The day before my birthday, Mom came up and we went to Olive Garden, bought a new birthday outfit, and chatted the afternoon away. Then that night some friends, roommates, and I went to Pizza Pie Cafe to check off my "sing at karaoke night" bucket list item. The day of my birthday I woke up to cute decorations from my roommates, a temple trip with Kaitlyn, Legally Blonde, delicious red velvet cake, and many birthday cards, texts, calls, FB wishes, and Happy Birthday singing. Needless to say, I felt very loved. The celebrating continued into the weekend when I went home for work (although that wasn't part of the celebrating. haha) I had my birthday dinner with the fam on Sunday and returned back to Logan to find a wonderful birthday letter from a dear missionary friend. It was a great birthday! Thanks to my roomies, family, friends, and everyone who made it a wonderful birthday. Hooray for being 20. :)
