The Big 2-1

Even though it didn't feel like I turned 21.

My birthday was Friday, where I was at work pretty much all day.  8 to 5.  My in-laws took me out to lunch to JCW's, where we ate delicious burgers and fries.  So good.  They also made me open up my present while we were waiting for our food to come out.  It was a pretty big box, and I was wondering what they could have gotten me.  I was thinking maybe clothes or something like that, but when I opened up, there was a big red blanket inside.  I was fine with that cuz I love blankets!  But then, I felt something hard wrapped up inside of the blanket. It was a new... iPhone 5!  I was so surprised (the blanket was just a decoy)!
My first photo taken on my iPhone.  Most of you have probably already seen this on Facebook ha.

After work, Robert and I went straight over to Springville where we ate dinner at my parent's house.  Songs were sung, candles were blown out, and presents were opened.  And of course, at my house, games were played.  That was my evening.

Saturday Robert and I got away to Park City for a little birthday trip.  His mom had given him a Groupon to a Thai restaurant right there on Main Street that expires on like the 13th, so Robert figured we could go to Park City and stay the night to use the Groupon before it expired. It was a freezing day with flurries of snow and icy winds.  We first went to the outlets where we looked around for a bit (didn't get much... just found one Christmas present for someone), then we went to our hotel to take a nap.  I was exhausted not only from walking around the outlets, but also from the day before.  I forgot how much energy working an entire shift takes!  After our extremely short nap of 10 minutes, we were on the road again.  We headed to the movies and watched "Rise of the Guardians".  It was a cute animated movie (it's the one with Jack Frost, Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, and Sand Man).  Right after the movie, we went straight to Main Street to eat some dinner.  We parked right in front of the restaurant (literally), and we didn't have to pay the parking meter because of the holidays.  Lucky us!  The Thai food was delish, but later that night it was not treating my stomach very good.  Oh well, it has passed.  Ha.  Robert and I went back to the hotel and watched one of our favorite TV shows "Pawn Stars" (it's one of those shows I love watching with Robert, but I wouldn't watch by myself... I have other shows to watch hahaha).

It was a fabulous weekend.  Sucks to come back to finals!  Once this week is over, this girl is one happy camper.
