My Birthday!

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

Today was my 23rd birthday! Funny how birthdays aren’t as good as they were when you were five, wish we could go back to those days! :) But I had a great birthday. I woke up and Matthew had made me breakfast which was quite a feat for him and I was very impressed! We had pancakes, sausage and juice. Then we took our time getting ready for the day and then we headed downtown Lincoln. We decided to stop and see the capital building and go for a tour. It was free which is always a good thing and we had a great and very funny tour guide. We were able to go up to the 14th floor outside observatory deck which gave a great view but Matthew and I felt like we took our lives in our hands getting up to it!! :) The elevator was VERY old, probably the first elevator ever made. It only held four people and it took FOREVER to get to the 14th floor and we just prayed that the door would open!! It is a beautiful building and we will have to take anyone who wants to go when you all come visit. Matthew took me to dinner at a place called MIsty’s for dinner. It is a local steakhouse, been around for over sixty years and the best prime rib I have ever had. Then we came home and had cake and opened presents. It was a wonderful birthday! Love you all and wish you could have been here!
