27 Today!!

So, I turned 27 today! It seems the older that I get I can't remember how old I actually am. Yes, I had to calculate my age this morning to see how old I was this morning. Haha... I guess once you reach certain milestones (16, 21, 25) you forget your age. Or maybe it's just me! So, since it's my birthday I figured I would include 25 random things about me. I actually pulled this one from my facebook account, so some of these may be duplicates from the other list on here. Enjoy!!
