Life As We Know It...

When I was a little girl I used to dream about what my life would be like when I grew up. I changed my aspirations on a bi-weekly basis, I wanted to be a nurse, an archaeologist and a scientist just to name a few. Something that never changed though is the dream of one day becoming a wife and a mother. My life hasn't turned out the way I dreamed it would when I was 5, 13 or even 18, but I am happier than I have ever been, I love my job and I have an incredibly loving boyfriend who treats me like a princess. 

I turned 25 yesterday and I want to document the next year of my life, mainly for me so I can look back and see what has changed or just as importantly what hasn't. I spent the weekend with my friends and family eating and drinking slightly too much, laughing so hard my tummy hurt and getting emotional at all the wonderful things my loved ones had to say about me. 

I thought I would kick things off with a few facts about me and since I am 25 why don't we try 25 facts... If I can think of that many!! So, here goes...
