Well, I turned 23 on September 15th. I don't know if anyone feels this way, but I feel like I stopped aging once I hit 21. I still have to stop myself from saying I am 21 - I am 23! Crazy! I'm pretty sure I still look like a high schooler! For my birthday, David took me to dinner at Tucanos. We LOVE Tucanos - plus the free meal for your birthday isn't bad either. After stuffing our selves with cheesy mashed potatoes and every kind of meat imaginable, David told me we were going to go get dessert. He did not tell me where we were going at first, and we ended up at the apartment of my old roommate - Courtney! Courtney had baked the most delicious Boston cream pie (from scratch!) and invited over all of our good friends - Natalie, Kate, and Michelle! It was so good to see them! It really meant a lot to me that they all still remembered my birthday. It was a lot of fun and the cream pie was DELICIOUS! Thank you everyone!
David's parents invited David and I over the Monday before my birthday to have a mini celebration. What is a birthday with the Driggs without a yummy funfetti cake?!! I love David's family and enjoyed spending a night with them to celebrate my birthday.
For my birthday, David gave me two tickets to the Killers Concert on September 26th. So that Saturday after the BYU game, we headed up to the E-Center in Salt Lake City for the concert. The concert was SO good! I will say that the opening band was a little lame. It was this rock/mariachi band. The whole band was dressed like the Three Amigos. The lead singer was some bald white guy singing Mariachi music. It was strange. But then the Killers came out and we loved the rest of the concert!
Here they are singing. The lead singer, Brandon, sounded SO GOOD live! He was amazing! Plus he is Mormon - gotta love that!
David was super thoughtful and bought us these Killers t-shirts for my birthday for us to wear to the concert.
The stage had those huge screens in the back that would change colors and show video clips and different things. It was a very good show - and of course they sang all of their best songs - I really liked their performance of "Smile Like You Mean It" and "Spaceman". David of course loved "When You Were Young".
At the end of their encore performance they had all these sparks come down from the top of the stage. Then they had balls of fire explode at the back of the stage. It was really cool! Thank you David for such a great birthday gift!

sounds like a GREAT b-day!
I have so many great things to say about this post:
1. Every time I think of Rockband I think of David signing the Killers song. And he sounds just like them!
2. I still say I am 21 too! I always am like, "Wait. Just kidding. I'm 22."
3. I did not know that the Killers lead singer was Mormon!
You're not 23! Crazy how time flies but happy you had an awesome birthday. You and David are really cute.
