Birthday Celebration's !

It turns out that 31 is not as bad as I anticipated! In fact it was one of the best birthday's I have had in a long time. The celebration began Friday night the 18th with a girls night out to Shakti's with these lovely ladies. I am so blessed to have each one of them in my life.

Saturday morning Josh took the kids to Anjou bakery and they brought back my favorite pumpkin muffin and a cafe vita vanilla latte. It was a sweet and thoughtful treat.

While they were gone to Anjou I whipped up a batch of pancakes for miss Ella so that we could have a birthday breakfast to celebrate her 1st birthday. Colton and Josh sang Happy Birthday to the two of us, I blew out my candle and we let Colton blow out Ella's. This was the first of many birthday's that I will get to celebrate with my little love, Ella.

After breakfast it was off to get a much needed pedicure with my friend Lauren ( it had seriously been a year since I had one last). After the pedicure I enjoyed some alone time shopping for a last minute outfit to wear to the Festival of Trees. The rest of the afternoon was spent reading and relaxing while my amazing Mr. mom for the day husband took care of the kiddos and the housework. It was the best birthday present he ever could have given me!



After a wonderful day of relaxation it was off to the Festival of Trees for a night out with my hubby and our good friends!

The Festival was beautiful and so much fun!We had a great table filled with our closest friends who all were so generous in donating their money to help support the performing arts center. I am sure we all would say we spent way to much money.... but it was for a good cause and we were happy to do it.



Next weekend will be Ella's 1st birthday party. Stay tuned for pics!
