30 Days of Birthday Awesomeness: Day 4




“Some people think football is a matter of life and death. I assure you, it's much more serious than that.” -Bill Shankly

Day 4 brought the start of another college football season. I LOVE football. And I especially love BYU football! I bleed blue! When football season starts again it's like suddenly everything is right in the world. I can't thing of anything much better then a saturday spent watching football!

So with today being the first BYU football game and I had a little party to celebrate. It was so much fun. My friend Jack came. And even though he doesn't like football he watched the whole game, never complained and was happy the whole time. He's really such a great friend! My other friends Trevor and Wes came along with my sister and niece. My little niece looked so cute in her cheerleading outfit.

The game was really good! There were a few times my heart was racing and times it almost stopped But my Cougs pulled out the win and all was right in my world!

Today was a great start to what I predict will be an amazing season! I had so much fun! GO BYU!

30 Days of Birthday Awesomeness: Day 2 & 3







Day 2 and 3 have been pretty uneventful. I've worked and hung out at my house. I did watch Letters to Juliet with my sister and Mckenzi last night. I love that movie and it makes my desire to go to Italy that much stronger. And I always love seeing my little monkey (Mckenzi)!

I also saw Columbiana with Jack last night. It was an ok movie. I do enjoy watching a girl kick guys trash but I would've preferred she wear a bra while doing it!

Tonight I'm going to clean and get ready for the party to kick off BYU FOOTBALL tomorrow! I'm so excited!

30 Days of Birthday Awesomess: Day One!











I've always loved my birthday! Who doesn't love a day dedicated to celebrating them and the day they were born?! I also love other peoples birthdays! I think everyone should embrace the birthdays and celebrate like crazy. Through the years I've tried to find ways to make my birthday celebration to last longer and longer till finally I came up with birthday month! I was telling my friend Jack about it and he liked the idea so we decided to first do 25 days of Jack since he was turning 25 and then 30 days of Michelle (me) since I'm turning 30! Yes I can't believe I'm turning 30 but if I have to do it then what better way then with 30 days of celebrating?! I'm calling it 30 days of Birthday Awesomeness!

Yesterday was day one. It started by me working in the morning because even though I thought I'd be rich at 30, I still need my minimum wage job. While at work Jack came in and brought me a card that wished me a happy day one. It was so sweet and almost made me cry. He's such a great friend!

Later that day my sister posted this on my Facebook wall:

DAY 1:
A sister can be seen as someone who is both ourselves and very much not ourselves - a special kind of double.
Thank you for being enough like me to be awesome, and enough not like me for us to enjoy our differences!
Happy First day of Michelle!

I loved it! She is such a thoughtful sister. And on a day that wasn't the best for her!










Later that night I went to see s special showing theater showing of Scarface. It was a lot of fun and I actually liked the movie better this time around then the first time I saw it. The only thing missing was my brother. He loves Scarface and it would have been nice if we could've watched it together. But I appreciate Brian leaving his work get together early to watch it with me.

So I had a great first day! It was much better then I thought it was going to be. And as I look forward to the next 29 days I know they are going to be amazing not because of all the events I have planned but because of the great people I get to spend them with! I have the best friends and family and that is the greatest gift I could ever ask for!
