one year older

As most of you know, I turned 23 yesterday. I was very blessed to be able to celebrate with Chris all day. It was a great, laid back day, and began by sleeping in.

We went and saw Charlie St. Cloud. We were a little skeptical because Zac Efron is the main character and weren't sure if it would be too "Disney." I loved it! I think Zac Efron is actually a really good actor and has made
a good name for himself outside of High School Musical.

We also spent some time walking around the mall and running a few errands.
For dinner we went to a new place I'd been wanting to try called Ken Martin's Safari Grille. The service wasn't great and the food was worse. The company was great! :) But..let's just say we won't be going back.

Overall it was a great day! I'm also looking forward to having some friends over tonight to have dinner and cake. Thanks for the birthday wishes!!

trip to the windy city

My parents, Chris and I vacationed to Chicago last week over July 4th weekend. It was fun to get away and a great break. Here are a few pictures highlighting our trip. I'll add more of them to my facebook album.
