twenty-eight...

i am to the point where i have to think what year i was born and what year this is to figure my age...just because i don't have to write it down on forms all the time or say it to people all the time. but today...i am 28! yahoo! and i don't feel any different than when i was twenty. that's how it goes huh?

so in honor of that...here are 28 things you never needed or wanted to know about me:

25. i love to bake
26. i am the youngest of 5
