20.
Last week I celebrated my 20th birthday & it was such a glorious day! I woke up to Ashley and KD hovering over my bed with a plate of cinnamon rolls and orange juice. Ashley made me my mom's special cinnamon rolls and they were absolutely delicious! After breakfast I opened my presents from KD and Ashley. Soon after opening them I received a phone call from the flower shop to verify if I was home. About 10 minutes after the phone call I got a special delivery of flowers and balloons sent to me from my family! Later that day us three girls headed to a small town about 30 minutes away for a Fall Boutique. Everything there was so cute so I of course had to buy some things for my future home which at this rate will be completely furnished before I even have it. After the boutique we stopped at Stockman's Grill for lunch and some of there free scones. We found out once we got there that they didn't serve scones until 5. So, Ashley and KD told the waitress it was my birthday so she went in the back and made me some scones even though it was a couple of hours before 5. After that we went back to the house and straightened up for people to come over. We of course ordered some pizza from Lotsa Motsa and when that arrived on each box was written "Happy Birthday Jackie". We had no idea who did it. Later this girl came over that Ashley knows from work with her husband and his two brothers (one of which I work with at the market). We spent the evening playing Rock Band and enjoyed some funfetti/lemon cake with my favorite rainbow chip frosting. It was a very good 20th birthday and I was lucky to have KD & Ashley who made sure that I didn't have any time to miss my family. They put so much effort into making it such a happy day for me.

Moving Forward.
Today is officially my final day of being a teenager. It is still hard to believe that tomorrow I will be 20 years old, it seems like these 20 years of my life have flown by. Looking back I think that I have lived these passed years pretty well and have been able to accomplish a lot. I have become an aunt (twice), taken hundreds of trips to disneyland, met some amazing people, moved away from home, started my journey in college towards becoming a photographer, and have strengthened my relationship with my family. I believe now that only good can come from the next 20 years.
