Well, 2009 is officially gone and 2010 is here! So what is the right way to say the name of this new year.....two thousand ten?.....twenty ten? I guess we'll have to wait and see. We had a great time last night with our bible study group, playing games and eating TONS of yummy snacks. And we all made it to midnight! Woohoo!

And speaking of 2010, there is something that is already going on here in the WhiteHouse....my birthday! The big 2-5. Yes, I am a New Year's baby, and no, I was not the first baby born on that day. I didn't get any free stuff, scholarships or tax breaks. But I still get to have a huge birthday party every year with all of my friends! I guess that makes up for it :)

Today, Michael and I slept in and then went to see the new Twillight movie, New Moon. Neither one of us have read the books, but the movie was still pretty good. I think I'll be excited when the next one comes out. After, we went to my parent's house and had my family birthday party, which was fun. My mom makes the best chocolate cake for birthdays, which unfortunately I was too full to eat after all of the movie popcorn, but I brought some home and will definitely enjoy it tonight! To finish off my birthday, Michael has made reservations at an unknown restaurant at 7:00 p.m., which is less than an hour from now. So, I better go now and get myself ready for my birthday dinner :)

P.S. My mother-in-law called to tell me Happy Birthday while I was writing this, and my father-in-law called and sang me the entire Happy Birthday song this afternoon. I was just thinking that I'm very lucky to have such great in-laws. Love you guys!

Until next time.......
