Today is an important day in American history, being Veteran's Day and all, but it's also a special day for another reason... today is Mrs. Ruth Fort Hale's BIRTHDAY!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RUTH!
To commemorate her 23rd year of life I've decided to make a list of my top 23 favorite things about/times with her.
In no particular order...
1. She has really great blonde, shiny hair.
2. When she says she prays for you about something you know it's not just empty words
3. Intense is her middle name
4. Three words - elixir of life
5. She makes me want to be more womanly, and by this I mean cook more.
6. Girl knows how to break it down.
7. DWTS! Swooning over Mark Ballas...
8. Late night talks in our room
9. She makes the perfect cup of tea
10. She's the most disciplined person I know.
11. Frolicking around All Faiths' freshman year.
12. Singing High School Musical songs....
13. She has a great brown jacket that I used to borrow all the time and she never complained. Any chance you want to just send that to me?
14. This isn't a good memory, but the time we got in a car wreck going to Copy Corner will always be memorable.
15. She makes great homemade cards.
16. At night she would do crunches while I laid in bed and watch TV shows on my laptop, again reminding me that she's way more disciplined than I'll ever be.
17. When things get hard, she sticks it out.
18. A recent conversation at Panera Bread sticks out...
19. She's the most hospitable person I know.
20. Playing nertz at Rumor's during freshman year
21. Definitely the biggest Aggie fan I know.
22. Red semi-permanent hair dye... that turned to pink hair... only Ruth could pull it off.
23. Cookie dough parties!
Happy Birthday Ruthie! Thou art more lovely...
