May

I turned 25! Yep, that's right, quarter of a century and loving it! I'm still at the stage in life where I'm excited to get older so I'm going to milk that for as long as possible. I think it also has something to do with how negatively my mom always spoke about getting older, she always complained. But here I am 25 and life is great and only getting more amazing as the days go by. I know it'll probably change someday but right now, I'm excited to get stretch marks from babies, wrinkly laugh lines, and get grey hair with my husband. Like I said (and everyone who's older and reading this is thinking) this mindset will probably change, might as well live it up and enjoy the birthday wishes.
On this birthday Dj got me jewelry! Which is neat because besides my wedding rings I've never gotten jewelry before. Now don't go thinking he's a bad guy, I'm just not a jewelry person. But I've been talking about getting a necklace like this for ages and he finally decided to get it for me.

 

And I had seen this one on the website too but I never thought he would get it for me. But he bought me both! He's such a sweetheart!

It means I love you in Portuguese (and Spanish too, they're just pronounced differently). And because I have to give props where they are deserved these two necklaces were made by Saout over at Etsy. She makes some cute stuff, there are definitely a few more things I'd like to get someday.

The other big deal that happened a few days after my birthday was our 3rd year Anniversary! May's like a big celebration month for us so I think it's just the greatest thing in the world. I got Dj some movies he's been wanting for awhile and he got me the board game Ticket to Ride.

 

If you haven't played it, it's pretty fun. It's one of those games that doesn't require a ton of strategy like Risk or Monopoly but takes a little more thought then LIFE or something like that.



One thing I can say about being married for 3 years now, is that I'm exponentially more in love with Dj than I was the day he proposed to me on that cold winter night a few days before Christmas in 2009 or the day we got married in the LA temple in 2010. He truly is my best friend and we are always, always making each other laugh. He amazes me everyday and I'm so proud to stand beside him while we go through this life There aren't words for me to express how and why or how much I love him.

Here's to an eternity of love, laughs, and lots of sillyness.
