Birthday Weekend

This weekend I...

Celebrated my birthday!!!! 

Saturday was my birthday but we started celebrating on Thursday night with dinner at Chuys. I had their "psycho sangria" :)

John also found a bakery by his work that makes the New York rainbow cookies I wanted so he brought those home for me.

And my present from my mom and Tim came in the mail!!!

Friday after work John treated me to a shellac mani and pedi from my favorite nail place.

Friday night John and I had my special birthday dinner with just the 2 of us at Taste of Texas! 

John also gave me my birthday present... I've been driving John crazy with the fact that I wanted double wedding bands, one for each side of my engagement ring. Well, he got me the 2nd one as my birthday present! I can't wear it yet of course, but I am SO excited because I wanted this so bad!! It just love the way it looks!!! He went ahead and ordered both bands and his band too...

Saturday morning I woke up to kitty snuggles :)

Then we went to Dan and Maria's house to watch the Tech game.

Then we went out to City Centre to celebrate mine and Dan's birthday! 

We had dinner at Cyclone Anayas, then went to a small bar next door to the Comedy Show we went to while we were waiting on it to start. 

Then Sunday (after waking up with a small hangover) we went to John's parents for a homemade dinner and cookie cake. 

And what's a post on my blog without cute kitty pictures??

I had an amazing birthday this year! Thanks to John, all our friends and our families for helping make this year so special!

So, I thought I would do a little recap of what all happened in this 28th year of my life!
