This month is such a special one...

It's birthday time for me.

Today Teresa took me to the Fresno Temple and we did a session. It was really neat, since I haven't been in a small temple before. It is a beautiful temple. After it was done, we went birthday shopping! It was so much fun! And I found some really cute things to take with me to Texas. I'm so excited to wear everything. I love getting new clothes. It definitely gives me a high, and I feel so cute and happy wearing my new things for like the next few weeks. As much as I like new clothes, however, I'm usually not much of a shopper. I don't like spending money at all, especially on myself. I just feel so guilty thinking about all that money... But that's why birthdays are so much fun. I can pick things out for myself without feeling guilty about it.

My birthday is on Saturday, and I need to think of something simple and fun that Kent and I can do. I like simple things for birthdays, like a picnic or something. I'll have to think about it. It can't be anything too big because we have to leave early Sunday morning for our drive to Texas. We're driving to Phoenix the first day, to a little place called Ozona, TX, the second day, and then on the third day it should only take us a few hours to make it into San Antonio. It will be a long, long drive, but at least I can wear cute new clothes on the way!
