i am SO feelin' 22.

okay, so here's the d.  i've never felt more loved in my life than on saturday.  but actually that's probably not true, i don't want to discredit every other day i am loved so well by the people around me, but it was just up there on my very favorite days of my life.  

^^ OH.  the LOVE!  look at these little hams!  also, haha coral made me laugh so hard squeezing my arm when i was holding up that cake... they bought me the most beautiful DQ cake with my name on it, you guys! ^^

^ two worlds comin together over the greatest pancakes in the world.  randy's!  one of these days, i'd just like to walk up to that man and shake his hand. hah.  four of my friends from home made the trip to EC to visit me for my birthday and four other friends from eau claire came to breakfast with us and i just couldn't believe how happy i was. ^^

^ LITERALLY.  how beautiful!  just miss nicole with a PLANT for me!  also ^ you can't see them, but aft and i are holding the world's greatest sno cones! (hey, lot of world's greatest... pancakes, sno cones, friends...) ^

^^ haha, sooo casual.  i just love those flower trees so i asked a bunch of men (and aft) to stand in front of them.  also, this pic is really special to me.  just because there's two worlds here all together. ^^

^^ katie katie katie!  i was so glad she could be around.  i love that girl. ^^

^^ OH. ^^

^ these divas.  two of my favorite people!  haha they were miranda from miranda sings for the towers vs. govs kickball game.  we lost but we had two mirandas so i think we all know who really won... ^

^ THESE PEOPLE. ^^^

^ we went to mount simon for more celebratin and a bon fire!! ^

^ ya know.  these captions are getting frustrating for me because i don't think i'm capable of conveying through words how significant & special & wonderful each of these moments captured were for me.  so maybe i'll stop trying ha. ^

^ my desk has never been more well-loved.^

thank you, friends, and family, for just guhhh everything.  you're all incredible and have made me the happiest alexi there ever was.
