21 years blessed!

Like most people, I am a HUGE fan of my birthday. It is a day that is basically all about me. But let's be real. It's more like a whole week of celbration.  I started out by spending a fun weekend with Randi (see last post) what I forgot to show was this awesome 21 glass she got me.  Sunday the Broncos lost and it was sad, Monday was just school... but then on Tuesday the real fun began.  I woke up at 5:04 am since that's what time I was born but only long enough to think, "I'm 21. Sweet!" before I fell back asleep.  That's what college does to ya. Haha later I woke up to a few text messages wishing me a happy birthday. BEST WAY TO WAKE UP EVER! I love feeling loved. Haha Throughout the day I continued to receive texts and Facebook posts. I even got a cookie from a friend in class which was such a wonderful surprise. Later my grandparents took me out to dinner at Texas Roadhouse.  My Aunt Colleen and Milly came and it was great. Great food, great people, great reason to celebrate :) I am pretty sure however that my grandpa only chose to take me there as payback for the one time we went on his birthday and made him sit on the saddle. He was ready with his cowboy hat and everything for me. It was such a great end to such a wonderful day. Crazy to think  I am now 21. I still think its 2012 and I'm 18. One of these days I'm sure it will sink in.

On Wednesday I came home to this awesome surprise. My grandparents cute friend Irene made this for me. It's chocolate cake with chocolate chips with chocolate frosting. Talk about heaven. I was so touched that she did this for me. It was so sweet!

On Thursday I came home to my grandpa telling me I had mail. (basically my favorite thing to hear ever!) The envelope was addressed to Jordan Eickbush 'The Basement' with a return address of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.  I've been waiting since my 11th birthday to receive a letter from them and it finally came but with an unexpected twist. The secret recipe to their famous Butterbeer. Now that I am 21 and all.  I seriously love Minerva. *cough JaNae cough* :)

I also received this awesome gift. Joe Billy (Alex) is one of Kyle's friends and has a thing for making flipagram videos. This one is filled with a bunch of old pictures I'm tagged in so it was fun to do a little flashback as well.  My favorite part is the message though.  "You're kinda cool happy bday"  GUYS! I'm KINDA cool. Finally, someone realizes my true coolness :)

It was fun to discover the random places that wished me a happy birthday. One of my favorites was Snapchat. Instead of boxes, whenever I got a new snap, their was a little present by it. So so fun!
