I am now sporting a new engagement ring!


This is pretty much what it looks like. Chris proposed on my birthday. No date has been set yet, but we're thinking a 6-8 months from now. I also got the coolest stuff from my fam for my birthday too.... Melissa gave me 4 pretty wine glasses (which I badly needed), Mom and dad gave me a rolling pin (also badly needed), two blown glass ornaments (which I collect), moolah (once again, nice to have) and Kristina and Ted are taking me to a hard-to-get-tickets-for Colts game next Sunday! And, to top it off I got to have 3 birthday cakes! One was a pre-birthday celebration icecream cake with the sisters and Ted. One was a work related german chocolate cake on the day of, and one was a confetti cake with Ben and Jerry's ice cream with mom and dad.

I am now 25. I can't believe it. I've always wanted to be 25. I'd say I shut down 24 with a bang. I wonder where I'll be in the next 25 years.....

Oh yeah, and thanks to Michaela, we now call Bailey "ba-yee"
