My Birthday!

This year, my birthday was the quietest that I've had in a long time, but it was still a lovely day (okay, couple of weeks) filled with loved ones.  I started off in Florida, before my parents left with my favorite Key Lime Pie in the world from JJ Gandys and my gorgeous Hillberg and Berk bracelet that they got me.  

I started off my actual birthday week, but going to get some of my birthday freebies.  Pretzels from Auntie Annes, lip kits from both Ulta and Sephora, a ridiculously huge and caffeinated Starbucks drink, as well as this cute beach hat from Charming Charlie using their birthday coupon.

On my birthday, Nicole and Jackson took me to Krispy Kreme for donuts and coffee and then to Target.  

When we got home, Smudge and I had a lovely afternoon nap.

When Josh got home, I got my ice cream cake and a few friends came over for a piece, then I got to open all my gifts.

Some yellow roses.

New FitFlopp running shoes, a waffle iron. K-cups, a new knife set, shorts and a shirt from Josh.

A Tiffany earring from Miranda.

A set of Pyrex bowls from Stephanie and Steve (these were a wedding gift to Josh's mom and dad when they got married), as well as a new coverup and some bath bombs (courtesy or Vanessa's Bathbombs), a Target gift card and a little dish.

From Nicole, Jason and Jackson a new Field and Stream shirt, some socks, cactus S&P shakers, flamingo box and St. Patricks Day gloves.

I also got various gift cards and a ton of cards, thank you all so much!

The weekend before my birthday, Josh and I went out to Purse State Park, one of my favorite places to look for fossils.

And we went to the Social Speakeasy in Leonardtown for a couple drinks.  I'd been wanting to go here since we moved here and its so fun.  We also stopped in at Port of Leonardtown Winery, one of my favorite wineries for a glass.

A few days after my birthday, I went to Fairfax, VA to meet my friend Ericka, who recently moved there from Peru with her family.  We had a lovely lunch a Sisters, a fantastic Thai place in the Mosaic District and a nice little wander (even though it was freezing!) around the area.

Thanks again to everyone that made my birthday so special!
