Today is my 25^th birthday.

25

Really 25? 25 years have gone by?  It truly boggles my mind how fast the years go by.  I can remember very clearly being a student at CWU getting ready to get out of school.  Now over 2 years has gone past and I am 25.

That’s a quarter of a century! (If you didn’t already know J)

You can see from the picture that my co-workers had some fun with my cube! The balloons is the apple tree and there are pictures of apple products all over the balloons. They put a picture of an apple on my phone and I called it an iPhone. It was fun! 

There was also SO many treats.  Today was a day were I have not counted a single calorie. Its my free day. Which I haven't decided is good or bad because I have a weigh-in Thursday. 

I can’t help but be thankful of everything in my life.  I am thankful that I have a job.  Well two jobs really.  A (new) roof over my head, a family that cares about me and some of the best friends in the world.   Tonight I will celebrate with some close friends at dinner  because I celebrated with family on Sunday at lunch.  We are going to go to Blue Moon Burgers in Fremont. They have an entire gluten free menu which makes for a very happy Lauren!  Afterwards, the party will start at The Dubliner!  They have karaoke tonight which is ALWAYS fun!  It’s going to be interesting how my church friends, blend with my friends from apple, that blend with my friends from BDA.  No matter what, it’s going to be a good night!

I have some ideas running through my head about what to write next.  I posted a status on Facebook and I think that I am going to write my next blog about my energy list. It’s an idea that my friend Nathan came up with. He did it with my best friend Veronica and it was a great experience.  If you haven’t done it, let’s do it together and see what we come up with!

Until next time.
