My Birthday!

Yesterday was my 26th Birthday! I received so many phone calls, text messages and facebook messages, from my friends and family wishing me a Happy Birthday! It really made me feel good that they were thinking about me on my birthday! Shaun woke me up with a smile and two sweet birthday cards. I made this flower arrangement with the flowers that he gave me. He got me some SD cards for my camera and told me that the rest of my gift was my trip to San Francisco to see Katie this summer! I am very excited to see Katie who has been my Best Friend since I was 4 years old, and San Francisco! I showed the model home from 2 to 4 pm and then came home to have dinner with my Mom, Grandpa, Aidan and our neighbor, Jarrod. It was fun to sit outside on our patio and enjoy the evening with my family. That is exactly what I needed this weekend....TO RELAX! Cassius was so relaxed he fell asleep next to my Grandpa's feet! I couldn't resist taking a photo.

My Dad is playing golf at Norris Lake and my brother could not make it. We are going to get the whole family together when my Dad gets home from his golf outing. After dinner Shaun, and our neighbor Jarrod headed to Cincy to visit our friends Justin and Brian. We went out and had a few drinks on the patio of the restaurant.

On Saturday afternoon I went to Patty's Baby Shower. She is due in July and I am so excited for her and Alex to become parents! I cannot wait to hold her sweet baby girl! She has been such an amazing friend to me and I am so happy for her to be a Mother! I will share the photos from the baby shower very soon!

After the baby shower, my friends Heather, Sarah and Sally took me to The Greene for my birthday. We ate at Cheesecake Factory and it was delicious! We shared a piece of Chocolate Raspberry Truffle Cheesecake for dessert. Then we went to The Pub for a few drinks. I really appreciate them thinking about me on my birthday and making it a special one for me. They are such great friends that I have known for so many years. It was fun laughing and reminiscing about all the great times we have had together!

On Monday evening, our friends Patty and Alex came over for dinner. We made chicken on the grill, corn on the cob, baked potato, salad and bread. We were stuffed but it was so yummy! It was great spending time with family and friends and always fun to stretch your birthday out the whole weekend! :)
