24 years old!

So, school started this week. I had a great weekend with my parents before the first week of school. It was a great time to relax. They came out for my birthday--- we hung out, went swimming, my parents took me grocery shopping, clothes shopping and then crib shopping. We ended up buying a beautiful crib. We went into the store and attempted to order it from Babies'r'us. Needless to say we had a terrible customer service experience there. We left, and my parents and I bought it online from our apartment. The deal was buy a crib, get a mattress for free. The mattress was free but the shipping of it cost almost as much as a mattress, so that was pretty much the lamest thing ever. The nice thing though was that we didn't have to deal with the idiots at Babies'r'Us and we got our crib this past Thursday! We hung out some more, and tried going to the Bookman's in Mesa because it's supposed to be a bigger store and have more selection. My dad loves Bookman's because of the records they have there. Well, he wasn't able to find any good selection there. We went to Kohl's and Ross and I got some cute blouses and shirts for going back to school on Monday. Then my mom and I went to Baskin Robbins for an ice cream cake, and then we all went to Red Robin. Rick's parents and sister Renee joined us at Red Robin since it was her birthday also! My parents ended up leaving on Sunday morning. I was so happy to have them out visiting us! I miss my family and it was really nice to seem them for a few days. Okay... enough talking, here are the pictures!

First picture my mom wanted to take was my pregnant picture. So this was me last week at 27 weeks.

Rick and I waiting to order at Red Robin.
My dad and I. He spoils me so much!
My parents. I am so happy that they were able to visit this weekend. This is a really good pictures of the two of them.

They sang happy birthday to Renee and I when we got the sundaes. It was totally embarrassing though!
The birthday cake. We love ice cream cakes in my family. This one was really yummy.
My mom and I Sunday before we left. This is definitely not the best picture of me since it's totally obvious that I just woke up and I have no makeup on!!!

Thanks for the wonderful birthday weekend! I enjoyed turning 24 with my parents there! Rick and I are so grateful for everything that they do for us and we love them so much!
