A Quarter of a Century Ago..........

I WAS BORN!!!!!!!!!! On July 24th, I celebrated my birthday, now being a quarter of a century old. Candi planned a big party for me it was so fun and full of surprises. I had a ton of visitors and even some guests I didn't think would be there. My mom and Jodi started the day with a trip to the Science Museum of MN to see the "Body World" exhibt, all the while, Candi was at home plotting my party plans. We had a BBQ at my house and ate ice cream cake. After a while, we all hiked down to the Wyoming school to play some 3-on-3 beach volleyball. When the bugs started to get to bad, we decided to go bowling at Stars and Strikes also in Wyoming. The bowling alley even had a Happy Birthday message across the score screen for me. After bowling, we went to another part of the building to play laser tag. While we waited for the other boys to finish their second round, Candi and I talked and Jodi tried to play video games and win at basketball. Finally we went home and watched the movies Jos, Josh and other guys had made. Everyone fell asleep except Jos and I, who talked til 3 am. On the 25th, my dad came over to take Jodi and I out to breakfast. He had this cool new truck and I got to sit in it. Candi and I took it for a drive and Candi couldn't find the gears so I had to run home to get my dad who was talking to Jodi to come help us get the truck.
