23!

You all may know that I turned 23 on the 2nd of September. Well I had a really tough time with this I am not entirely sure why. This past year had been a really tough one with work and money situations so you would think that I would be happy that it has come and gone, but I realized that I don't want to get any older before I have finished all of my goals. I guess it is good that turning a year older has put me into gear in order to do just that. This year Jay had to work so we had a little family BBQ lunch. We had your normal BBQ food Hamburgers and hot dogs and my mom made some pasta salad. It was really good I miss BBqin' all the time. After lunch we had Cheesecake birthday cake which is my fav. Camden and Bransyn helped me blow out my candles (which I think was there fav part) After the BBQ we headed home and I got ready to go to Mesquite with my mom and Greg. We went to Samurai 21 and had some amazing food with some really good entertainment. I just would like to say that I the the Samurai in Mesquite alot better than the one in St. George. After dinner we headed over to the casino to gamble. I have never really been into gambling but going with my mom and Greg I had so much fun. After we Gambled for a couple of hours we went and played bingo which I think would have been a lot more fun if they didn't have any machines that played for you. We went old school and did paper. Unfortunately none of us one :( but we did have fun. After bingo jay met up with us after he was off work and I gambled the rest of the night with him at the tables. My mom had started me off with 20 bucks and we came home with 80 :). When we finished gambling Jays mom was also in Mesquite and had gotten a suite there so we headed up to the amazing suite and crashed out. All in all this was one of the greatest birthdays I have had in quite a few years :)
