September 11th, 2011

My 26th birthday!! I'm officially old. That is NOT good. My birthday weekend though, was awesome. Friday night -- dinner at old school Mama's pizza. Shooting back to your childhood is always a solid time -- add the family and my adorable nephews and it's a very happy birthday. I'm so grateful to have such an amazing family -- and here's the kicker -- I actually LIKE them all. What are the odds? ;)

Saturday I went to the pool with some friends. We barbequed, played beer pong, and drank some Doak Punch. (Oh, okay...technically it started as Bailey Punch...but I have now adopted it - BAM!) SUCH a good day! Later that night we all got dressed (me in obnoxious pink, right down to the shoes) and went to Katy Trail Icehouse. My favorite people were there. Unfortunately there were a couple people who couldn't make it that I wish could have (cough cough, my sisters....OKAY FINE. Amy wasn't in the same state and Anne has a newborn. Whatever. Nice excuses, ladies.)

On Sunday I woke up to a text from my mom wanting to take me out to brunch. EXCELLENT plan since I was already planning on a little Sangria action on the day of so my mom, Mikael and I all met up and had a little sparkling sangria. Besides the idiot who was playing terrible music at a ridiculous decibel - it was the same as the rest of the weekend -- amazing!

All in all -- awesome birthday. Thanks for everyone making it feel so special.

Jack + Lizzi = Mahem

I don't really have much to say about these -- I just think they are SO funny. I'm not putting them on Facebook because I look ridiculous -- but look at our faces. LOOK AT JACKS FACES! His expressions are absolutely hilarious. Glad to know I can make him laugh by acting like a total fool. ;)
