Happy B-day to me

So, I had a birthday yesterday. I know some of you have sweet husbands who get onto your blog on your birthday and post about how amazing you are, but that is soooo not something Brody would do, so I guess I'll just have to do it myself, on second thought I won't, but I'll leave you with some Stacey birthday trivia.

The worst birthday present-when I was about 10 I decided it would be cool to get a fish aquarium for my birthday, but that was a mistake. Within a few days all the fish had died and the slug that eats algae off the walls had eaten all the fish and left their guts behind...gross!

The best birthday present-I got a Fossil watch from Brody 6 or 7 years ago, and I still wear it pretty much everyday, and it works great. I don't know if it's necessarily the most exciting present, but definitely the best quality. I think this watch will last forever.

Most memorable birthday party-My mom was not all about throwing us big birthday parties growing up, we usually just did family parities, but one of the memorable parties is when my friend Jen-nerd-ifer Moses had a little surprise party for me. She blindfolded me and made me climb up to the roof at the elementary school where my friends were there with cake and presents. Oh the craziness.

Best birthday party-I don't have one specifically, but Brody is really good at getting friends together for my birthday. This year we went to Olive Garden with friends and then had a BYU-ithday party (Brody came up with that all by himself). After dinner we had ice cream cake and watched BYU get slaughtered by FSU. Very disappointing.

Favorite age to turn-I would have to say 16 for obvious reasons. I know lots of people would say 21 because of the drinking age, but being Mormon and all turning 21 was not that eventful.

Best thing about turning a year older-Having my family with me for the journey. I sure love my kiddos and hubby, and look forward to celebrating every birthday I have with them.
