I am officially 21 years old. Which means I'm legal to buy and consume alcohol. Watch out world, here I come.

I'm kidding. Don't freak out. I have enough baggage so the last thing I need is to go crazy with the alcohol. BUT I did have a fabulous birthday! I am so blessed with such a sweet family to come and visit me for church and breakfast and for friends who will take me out and shower me with love!

The cliche 21 year old picture. Oh and that's Andrew, our waiter.
The Pettibon sisters have truly been such a blessing to me!
This is what happens when you get three generations of chaplains in one room. We had no trouble finding someone to pray before we ate though :)
Don't let this fool you. It was a very tasty drink.
If you go to Chugging Monkey on your birthday you will get a really good tasting free drink. And you will be serenaded with a song that I would rather not discuss on my blog. Lets just say I found it to be a little repulsive ;)
Taryn knows me too well. A coffee cup made out of chocolate filled with espresso whip cream!
Yes, I received boxing gloves from Taryn. I now have a healthy way to release my anger ;)
My big, Kristin!
Sweet sweet friends.
Allicia :)
My fabulous roommate Michelle, who turned 21 three days before me!

Caitlan you are absolutely amazing and I'm so glad I got to be a part of your birthday celebration! I love reading your blog and seeing how much you are learning. A lot of times I get so caught up in doing the little day to day things that I can't see God moving in my life- because I forget to look! You inspire me to look to Him for strength and advice and simply to see what He is teaching me. I love seeing how much you are learning and it makes me excited to see what I'll learn. Love you :)
