My Fabulous 28th Bday!!!

My Birthday week/weekend has been just absolutely wonderful. First, I just can't thank all of my wonderful girlfriends for all of the work they put into making reservations, getting cake, & sending out invites for my party. I have some of the best friends in the entire world & for that I am truly grateful! We always have so much fun together laughing & being silly & enjoying life...

There were 18 of us Saturday night. We went to Wasabi for Sushi & good conversation! Two of the gals had to show up late so they aren't in the pic but did later & boy did we have a good time! These are some of the sassiest gals I know!

Enjoy some pictures of my sweet gals & our night out!


































I told my girls NOT to get gifts but of course they all did so I had a great time opening them & smiling all night! I got all kinds of goodies from gift cards, to jewlrey, to make-up bags, etc... GREAT STUFF from some sweet ladies!


After dinner we did a little dancing! It was so much fun. I love this special group of girls & thank each of them for bringing so much fun & joy into my life on my special day! Each one of them was brought into my life in different ways whether we knew someone the same, grew up together, or even met at the gym! Three of these ladies are my gym buddies who I met over the past few months! We don't even need a "BDAY" to celebrate but goodness, we sure did have a blast!!!













Sunday evening was my BDAY celebration with my family at my parents house. They invited some of our good friends, the Staffords! We all enjoyed grilling out burgers & eating some yummy Rick's Bakery cake! My parents got me a gift card to shop with along with some amazing shoes from Bakers that I have been wanting! My sister in law & brother got me a gift card to get my TOMS shoes this week, & the Staffords got me a Lampe-Berger that I have been wanting to make my house smell good! We always go to the Stafford's & love the way their house smells, so they got us one! Thank you to my entire family- including Chad's family who we celebrated with last week, for making this years BDAY the best!

Now that all the festivities are over I am off to the gym ALL week to work off the cake I ate! But I had a good excuse!








Please forgive me for being so behind on e-mails & comments. I have been so behind on catching up on my favorite blogs, but plan to do so tonight if I can get this house cleaned up today!!! Just in case you haven't heard from me in forever!!! HUGS!
