Happy Birthday to ME!

I love birthdays and I shamelessly plug mine every year. Personally I think there is no such thing as a "day" celebration; they are called birthweeks around here :) The celebrating of the big 3-1 kicked off this past weekend with dinner at a contemporary pizzeria downtown with my friend Jami and her husband. I love trying new restaurants and even more so when they turn out to be fantastic. It was a delicious dinner with friends I don't get to see often enough. Afterwards, we headed out for some drinks and met up with some more friends. Overall a good night that left me hurting Sunday. I can't recover like a champ anymore :(

Today I woke up to several birthday texts and messages and instantly wishing I had called the day off from work :) Then I opened my presents sent from my family and found two of these little blue boxes from my sister and dad!!!

My sister also sent this super cute card...

It's me at 4th birthday party at mickey D's! She made it on Shutterfly and put another pic of us from New Years on the inside. Too cute!

Tonight the hubs and I have reservations at Table 52. Oprah's chef, Art Smith, started a restaurant for everyone to enjoy his southern cooking. I've heard amazing things and am so excited. I love to eat!

So despite this head cold and having to work I'd say it's another successful birthday. And it's not even over yet!
