I had a birthday a few weeks ago and even though 26 is nothing too big to celebrate, it sure didn't feel that way. It began with a cake at work, 2 deliveries of flowers....one from my sweet DJM and an afternoon surprise from my mom and brother. I am lucky enough to have a best friend who's birthday is just 2 days before mine so the celebration becomes a bit epic, out of control, and well....unforgettable! So that celebration begin at Tony's Pasta Friday night with gifts of wine and girly stuff from our wonderful group of friends. Jayme was on a midnight count down so I could be old with her....shots all around anyone??? The story continues but is maybe to much to put down into words.
Me and Jayme above. Joined below with Nick and Tyson...we also felt the need to celebrate Nicks upcoming birthday the following Thursday.
Saturday was the stormiest day of the year, and so far of the season to come. But I ventured out for lunch with my family. We went for hot dogs at Good Dog, ice cream at Clumpies, and with both came really fun stories of my childhood and making memories for when I am even older to talk about. I can see it now...they will all talk about the storm, and how we braved it anyways!
The army was kind enough to let us out for a night! We totally didn't know we were dressed alike until it was too late to change!
Daniel surprised me with a gift before we went to lunch. I thought our cruise was my birthday gift, that's what it was supposed to be. However, he handed me a card, I was thinking he didn't want me to be empty handed on my birthday, and then all of a sudden a small box appears. My eyes light up very surprised at what he has done. I open it and my eyes REALLY light up! He surprised me with emerald earrings! They are absolutely beautiful, I LOVE them!!! SO flowers, a cruise, emerald earrings....I have the best bf hands down!
Saturday night it was out to dinner with my best friend Beth and her husband. She had me a yummy cake that was beach themed in honor of our cruise. She also surprised me with tickets to a summer concert featuring Colbie Colette! Cannot wait for August to get here! And then to top that off, she hands me a gift card to buy myself something for our cruise! I mean, who has the best friends of anyone!?!?!?!
So 26 can be a happy age....it has been very happy for me thus far!
