Birthday Fun!

So, last Saturday was my birthday. I'm now a whopping 25 years old. One quarter of a century. A menace to society, and just one short year away from turning gay. It was a super fun birthday. Here was my schedule:

9 AM-5 PM: Hale Centre Theatre for final dress rehearsal. (Come see my show!) We ate cake, and I got the birthday song it at least 6 part harmony. An experience I think everyone should get at least once.

5:13-7:14: Driving home to Richfield. Those who've made the journey know it takes about 2 and a half hours to get from Salt Lake to Richfield, but I was cruisin'. I left the gas station on 33rd and Redwood at 5:13 and walked into the door of the SVC at 7:14. Record time.

7:14-9ish: One Voice Ten Year Anniversary Concert. Good times were had by all. The alumni sang 4 songs. They rehearsed for about 6 hours earlier in the day, but I got up on stage with them all and faked my way through. I did alright all things considered.

9ish to 10:30ish: Birthday dinner with the fam, Joe, and Lindsey at Pepperbelly's. Good times were, again, had by all. And dinner was delightful. As was the "Over the Hill" hat I got to sport while they sang me their birthday jingle.

Then I went home and went to bed. It really was a great birthday. I got to spend it with most of my favorite people.

On Friday Andrea and I made a cake. Her birthday is on the 9th and we have a tradition of making outlandish cakes to celebrate our birthdays. Here's this year's. In case you can't tell, it's a volcano with lava, and action figure men. One of them has been mowed over by the lava, and one is doing splits across the caldera. It was made from red velvet and triple chocolate fudge cake. I know it looks weird, but it was actually quite tasty:
