24.

No, this post is not about Jack Bauer.
I turned 24 on Sunday. I'm not sure how I feel about it yet, but either way I am 24! I feel like my birthday has been going on for a week and I am so grateful to have family and friends to share it with. On Saturday, we went to Cafe Rio and saw Star Trek. Both were awesome! Sunday Josh's mom came up and we had a bbq with a bunch of our friends.
