26...

saturday was my birthday. i turned 26. wierd. i'm old. i know it isn't OLD in comparison to some, but to me, it's old. and i wasn't totally ready. but i'll get there. i'm holding on and believing 26 is going to be my year! woot! since my birthday was on a saturday, i hosted a little birthday brunch (including MIMOSAS and a build-your-own-waffle-bar) and invited some of my fabulous friends. it was absolutely LOVELY and such a good time (and turned out SUPER cute i might add!) apparently the decor was my main focus - i didn't take any people pictures - but Kenz assured me she has some cute ones...so i'll add those soon! it really was a wonderful morning of GREAT food, wonderful friends, thoughtful gifts and LOTS of laughter! it was kick-back and easy and really just a wonderful way to begin another year!after my party i hopped in my car and headed to oceanside where i met my brother, sister-in-law, M and dad at Ruby's on the Pier for dinner. YUMMMMMM!! very rarely do i get to see my family on my actual birthday, so it was a HUGE treat to spend some time together!!and seriously, nothing is better than a birthday dinner with this one who did INDEED sing me happy birthday and shared my sundae with me! she's just the best thing ever!!! we're getting our pictures made together next weekend - just you wait - you're ALL going to be jealous!!!
