It is over, done, the end. They found a replacement for me for my Wednesday Draper classes! Apparently and thankfully he is amazing and has been training like madness and will be there next week for the new semester. Which means that as of last Saturday, January 23rd, my 24th birthday, I am officially done teaching. What a huge sigh of relief! All anxiety and anger fled my body when it heard that incredible news. Best Birthday ever.
It was also a fantastic birthday because my husband made me pancakes for breakfast and then gave me The Office Season 4, which we have become addicted to. Piano lessons and festival went well and the Springville recital was okay. Then we went to Clints Deli (the Provo Hickory Kist) and had the Clinster for the first time ever.... delicious.. Seriously so good. I got to chill at home for a min before driving up to Draper for the Draper recital... which was THE BEST Draper recital ever. No kids cried and got scared or anything this time. Everyone played their songs and sang their songs and did everything just so great. And then after the recital I was swarmed with my precious students giving me birthday and last day of being their teacher gifts. So cute and so much fun! I took pictures of all my students so I'll have to post those on here when I can get them onto my computer.
After Draper recital we went to... drum roll... The Cheesecake Factory of course! The party in front of us was told it would be a 3 hour wait... I was almost devastated. There was no plan B for birthday dinner choices.... But we were luckily told it would only be an hour to an hour and a half. YAY! We roamed the Fashion Place mall and built 2 bears at the Build A Bear there for our bedroom.... since it is somewhat a bear theme and will be as we gradually decorate it. So cute! I also found a belt that i have been NEEDING for ages now. Then it was only a little wait longer and we were in cheesecake factory bliss with some of my family! So yummy!
After dinner Dustin and I headed home and had some friends over for a game night... Nathan and Adrienne picked the Celestial Companion game that Dustin's grandparents gave us for Christmas and it was actually kinda fun. So really, it was indeed, the best birthday ever. I hope that 24 is as great as 23 and that this year will be as great as last year. I have a feeling that it will!

Wow, that sounds like a loaded day! I'm glad you had such a fun birthday, and my dream b-day would be to eat at a lot of fun places too! haha 24 and 25 are super fun, but then it gets scary because you're closer to 30...I guess I should be saying "I" instead of "you"!
Yay! :D
I'm glad you are getting a break from work. Happy birthday. I actually was going to call and I forgot but I did think about you on your b-day. I'm glad you have Dustin to spend it with.
