More birthday celebrations

This is my sweet friend Cara and I. She just got back from Peru so we went out to dinner on Friday night with a few other friends.


This is my roommate Ashley and her best friend Erin. Ashley bought me a ticket to the Tom Petty concert for my birthday. This is us tailgating before the concert. We played cornhole and listened to music. It was SOOO hot.


This is a group shot of some of the girls at the concert. We were all SO nasty from sweating before the concert. It didn't get any better once we got in there either. There were so many people and everyone was just sticky.... gross. But it was a good concert and a great birthday present!

bella and george


This is bella and her love, george. She was given a really ugly white and light blue bear that used to be 3 times her size and she adored it. I really didn't like the bear so I bought this big frog the switch out. She loves him even more. I named him george and I will tell her to go get her george - sure enough she will come running back with him! She also cuddles with him and sleeps with him! She was asleep in this picture but when I walked up, she woke up so I will try to take one of her sleeping with him! I just think its so cute and so funny!

Birthday Celebration

My sweet friends Jen, Jessica and Ashley took me out to eat for my birthday at Porter's Tavern! My meal was so yummy and the company was even better. I love these girls so much! Thank you for my birthday celebration, dessert and my presents! You all are the BEST!!!!!

After dinner, we went to Hayes Barton Cafe and Dessertery for dessert. It turned out to be really crowded so we took our treats back to Jessica's house. It was such a fun time!



Ashley and I in Hayes Barton Cafe & Dessertery

Our 4 desserts that we did not even eat half of! The picture doesn't do the dessert justice. They were HUGE!!!! The slice of cake alone would have been enough dessert for 4 people. They were so delicious though! We got Key Lime Pie, Peanut Butter Chocolate Pie, Coconut Cake (my favorite) and some other really rich chocolate cake!

Me and Jen. Sorry, Jen, that this picture didn't make the cut for facebook, but at made the blog! YEAH!



****Thank you to everyone else who made my birthday special! These are the only pictures I took so that's why it is just of that night. I enjoyed all my meals and presents so much! I am so lucky to have all of you in my life! Thanks again!!


Museum of Natural Sciences

The other day I had lunch with my old roommate Laura and we took John to the Museum of Natural Sciences downtown. This is one of my very favorite museums and it was so fun to see John's reaction to everything. He really likes animals right now so he especially loved seeing the fish and turtles! He also really like the dinosaur bones and just stared up at like for a really long time! I can't wait to take him to more places like this!

and I'm back baby!!!!

I finally got my new computer!!! BUT all of my pictures are still on my old computer AND I lost my camera so there still won't be pictures for a while.

I hope everyone had a great 4th of July. I had a WONDERFUL holiday weekend! I went to the Thagard's beach house (the family I work for). I had such a fun time and could not think of a more fun way to spend the holiday. I got to play on the beach with John, dive in the waves, ride on the boat, lay out, eat VERY delicious food, get a henna tattoo and so much more! I can't wait to go back again! Bella got to come along and she was definitely spoiled. She did NOT like the ocean or the sand. I took her up there one morning and we did not stay long.

Soon I am headed off to Oregon to visit my best friend, Catherine. I cannot wait to see her and give her a great big hug.

I will be 23 tomorrow. I can't believe that.

That's all for now. I will put up pictures as soon as I can!!
