Birthday Weekend Highlights!

Phew! I need a weekend to recover from my weekend! We packed in a ton of fun this weekend celebrating my birthday early!

My weekend highlights included:

~Friday afternoon lunch with my teacher friends since we had another snow day

~MG bringing home a ton of my favorite snack foods (healthy was not happening) for my birthday weekend--probably not a good idea with our Dominican trip coming up in a few weeks (oops), but the man knows what I love :)
surprisingly, I've only eaten some of the pistachios at this point
~Double date dinner with one of our favorite couple friends
~Saturday morning visit from an electrician to do some work in our basement

~Cooper went to the groomer and now looks super handsome
this face....it gets me all the time
~My bestie arrived!!!!

~Lunch and shopping with the bestie

~Got to take a "family" pic :)
Cooper doesn't look too sure about it lol
~Tried out a new restaurant in Old Town with MG and Genna before the rest of the birthday celebrations. All of our meals were insanely delicious--I was a bad blogger and didn't take pics of the food #hangingmyheadinshame

~Met up down the street with some of my friends for drinks at this really cool modern/rustic restaurant bar
~Indulged in two dirty martinis (and some wine shhh)...mmmm...

~This pretty Alex and Ani bracelet from Genna--Love!

~Saturday morning Starbucks run, and a free drink from the barista (not because it's my bday)

~Brunch with another one of our favorite couple friends--the food was delicious and the company was fab (I didn't take a pic of the food, but I did snap a pic of my brunch outfit)
Loft gray striped tunic, fleece lined navy leggings and my new brown boots from Christmas
~Enjoyed the weather and didn't need to wear a coat! Hallelujah!
~Said good bye to my best friend, but made plans for our next get together!

~Ran Sunday errands

~Drove with the sunroof open

~Thai food for dinner :)

~Watched Mockingjay

~Cooper snuggles

~Went to bed to recover from losing that hour, and to prepare for a loooooooong  regular length work week (no more snow days and delays!)

I honestly couldn't have asked for a better birthday weekend. It kinda works out that not all of my friends could come out on Saturday because now I get to have separate smaller birthday celebrations with everyone! 
I feel so loved and lucky to have such awesome friends in my life and a husband who spoils me :)
And now, it's back to work, for what looks like the first full week that we've had since before Christmas! At least I have a ton of fun memories to get me through it!

  9. All birthday calories don’t count – what a sweet guy for bringing home the junk food; treat yourself!! Double dates are always so much fun! Cooper!! What a stud; I love how fluffy pups are coming out of the groomer’s. So fun that you had your best friend in town and that you spent so much time with friends! Seriously, your weekend looked fabulous!
