Birthday Recap

Hi there!

It’s been 1 1/2 weeks since my birthday and I have yet to do my birthday recap. When I was getting ready to put this post together, I realized that I hardly took any pictures. *gasp* Thankfully, my bestie took a few, so this post won’t be completely bare.

Started off the morning with an early nail appointment. Got myself a pedicure and my nails repainted. There’s nothing like freshly painted nails, especially when there’s a “party nail” on both hands!

I had the afternoon to myself, so I treated myself to a delish lunch and rested up for the busy night. My bestie and other friend told me they had some fun stuff, so I figured a quick nap would be a good idea. When we met up, they gave me this little booklet….

The things in this book were completely random, but just about all of them were outside my normal “comfort zone”. Ah, these girls just know me too well. Here’s just a sampling of what they wrote down:

• Dance on the corner of the sidewalk for 10 seconds
• Follow someone down the sidewalk for 5 blocks
• Take a picture with a group of tourists
• Try on a complete outfit assembled by Gretchen and Kalyn
• Pretend to puke inside of a trash can
• Apply the brightest possible eye shadow from Sephora

Oh goodness, this list went on and on. While I wasn’t able to complete a lot (since we started late), I did have to do some things that were embarrassing.

Now no outing with my bestie is complete without some sort of food. We went to get apps earlier in the day, we each tried a different dish and shared. I got the soft pretzels with dijon mustard- so delish!

 

For dinner, we went to a Mexican restaurant. It was a quaint little “hole in the wall” place. Unfortunately, I don’t remember the name of what I ordered, but it was pretty good! After getting embarrassed quite a bit, I worked up an appetite!

There were a few other pictures, but sadly they didn’t turn out very well. I am beyond bummed that the picture I took with Gretchen turned out horribly. However, I’m super thankful that I got a fairly good picture with my bestie, Kalyn. Love this girl to pieces. We’ve been friends for 25 years and the plan is to keep it going for another 25+! :)

Thank you from the very bottom of my heart to those sent over birthday wishes to me. You all are such gems. I am blessed to have such sweet blog followers and crafty friends.

This is going to wrap up this recap. Thanks for stopping by!
