My Birthday!!

I am SO excited!! as many of you know...cough my few followers cough...it is my birthday this weekend and I am getting pretty excited! I havn't had a day off on my birthday in 6 years! So this year I am all about livin' it up and having a really fun birthday. My freakin awesome husband suprised me with wicked tickets and I cannot believe it! I have seen Wicked in San Fran but it will be cool to share the experience with Andrew. For our honeymoon we went and saw Phantom of the Opera in Vegas and it was Unbelievable! I think the best part about it was that Andrew enjoyed it more then I did. I am so excited that he is so open minded about things that I enjoy...I hope he loves Wicked just as much as he loved Phantom....plus I have been making him listen to the CD for like 2 months now so he is pretty familiar with the songs...hehe. Wicked is on the 15th so it will be the week after my birthday but I couldn't have asked for a better present. As for this week I am planning on spending the whole day at Henderson with my siblings...laying in the sun..reading my book and enjoying time with my family. A couple days ago my mom mentioned something about having a birthday BBQ which hadn't even crossed my mind. Being married and all sometimes not being able to go YSA activities anymore and living in Calgary has made it hard for me to see my friends regularly. SO BBQ it is!! I am actually so excited! Even if just one friend shows up it will be worth it...plus I'm hoping Andy can sneak outta work and come down a little bit early to enjoy a saturday evening with his wife and all our friends.

This week has been flying by...I finished a book yesterday and started a new one called The Rescue by Nicholas Sparks. I started my new class tonight and I finally have a teacher that speaks english as their first language....it is nice not having to concentrate on what they are saying and just relax and understand the concepts they are getting at. I actually quite enjoy the class...it is called managing responsibly in a global environment but it is basically just business ethics which really gets you thinking. I am so blessed to have found accounting...my brain is definitely wired in that area and I love the number crunching and problem solving aspect....though I did love learning about all the different compounds, elements and how they react with each other it is nice to know that I am no longer struggling with keeping up with the pace and that I can enjoy all the A's I am getting...it feels good. Anyways that is the update of the week....oh and Scott joined us in Calgary South which is nice that I will get to see him and Stace!

Love you all!
