21 & Lovin' Life

Soo, yesterday was my 21st birthday! WHOOP WHOOP!!

I went out to eat for lunch at one of my favorite restaurants, Buffalo Wild Wings, with one of my best friends and bought my first legal acoholic drink, a strawberry daquiri :). Then last night, went out to eat at one of the Mexican restaurants around here with my husband, parents, and might as well be second parents. Had my second strawberry daquiri of the day haha. Then we left there and went to the local bar, where everybody, but me, proceeded to get wasted. (Ironic right?) I just couldn't find a drink that I liked, I tried 3 different things. But I did manage to have 2 shots of something called a buttery nipple, those were good. Tomorrow night will be my friends night of partying. Yes, I celebrate my birthday for almost a week. But hey, IT'S MY BIRTHDAY! My 21st birthday at that, isn't that what you're supposed to do for your birthday? Haha!
 
Now that the biggest day of my birthday celebration is over and I'm back at work being the big responsible girl I am, I'm reflecting on how the age of 20 was for me, and hoping and dreaming about what the age of 21 has in store for me.
 
So let's get started, 2013 was a busy year for me! I'll make it easy on myself and do a list in chronological order.

• Jan 2013- Well.. the obvious, I turned 20!
• Feb 2013- I started my big girl job at the bank! Well,, it's not technically something I hope to make a career out of, I'm just a teller right now (I'm hoping to move up in the bank). BUT! It is better than my former job at GNC, I am full time and have GREAT insurance and vaca days! Woo hoo!!
• March and April 2013 were pretty average. Nothing memorable happened in those months.
• May 2013- I graduated college!! One of the greatest feelings ever, knowing I accomplished my goals and walked across that stage to be handed my Associates Degree in paralegal!
• June 2013 was pretty average too. I was starting the final details of my wedding! Although, this is the month I officially went full time at the bank!
• July 2013- Ahhh!!! My wedding month!! My wedding was picture perfect and exactly how I wanted it! July 13, 2013 was DEFINITELY the best day of my life so far!!
• Aug 2013- It felt VERY WEIRD not starting school back after doing it for like 15 or so years!
• Sept 2013- My hubby's birthday, he turned 24! And we got our Jack Russell dog child, Chevy!!
• Oct 2013- Went to see The Band Perry and Rascal Flatts in concert with my best friend! That was like a dream come true!! I've always wanted to see Rascal Flatts live.
• Nov 2013- Had surgey to have my gallbladder taken out the Monday of Thanksgiving. That wasn't fun AT ALL!
• Dec 2013 was pretty average. Not much happened this month.

So all and all I think the age of 20 and the year 2013 was great to me! I strengthened my relationship with my mom, she truly is my best friend now.

Now I'm ready to see what 21/2014 has in store for me!! A few of my dreams for 2014 are:

 

Finally buy our first home!!

Take a vacation with my hubby! We never got to take a honeymoon. :(

Just some wishful thinking for the future! ;)

 

Hubby wants a new truck. And I'd be lying if I said I don't want him to get it!

 

Both my hubby and I become closer to God and better Christians.

My hubby and I to become closer to each other.

 

 

Apparently, I want this year to be just as busy as last year, just in different ways! But I know as long as I have God and my husband by my side I can handle it!!
