It Takes Two to Tango: 27... Oh My!

Best birthday week ever! The Saturday before my 27th birthday (Wednesday, Aug 22nd), Annette & Chris, Katie & Robert, Charlie & I all had dinner at Swanky's and then headed to our house for mini fruit pizzas and an intense game of Bandu. It was toe to toe until Robert vs. Me ended with Robert left standing. Don't think he quite understood that you were suppose to let the birthday girl win. Oh well, we had a blast!

My birthday day couldn't have been more amazing. I took the whole day to do things I wanted to do. I went and got a Chai on my way to get a mani/pedi in Green Hills. I then shopped around for a bit and then got my favorite fuji apple chicken salad at Panera where I could read my Bible for a bit. Then I headed over to get my hair done. Charlie was taking me out to dinner so it seemed appropriate.

What I didn't plan was what happened between my hair appt and dinner. God's blessings rained down. Not only did I not have a headache all day, but my friends were so incredibly generous. Jani brought me a wonderful basket full of baked goods, fruit, and a pedicure gift certificate. Then one of the neighborhood girls, Nichole, came by with our super savor book and a gift of body products as a birthday gift, so sweet. We are facebook friends:). Then, my neighbor/zumba instructor, Lori, came over with a fantastic homemade chocolate cake for my birthday/get well gift. Then Annette called and being sneaky, she left balloons and wonderful peanut butter cookies on my doorstep. I then coaxed her into coming back to chat for a bit. It was all so incredible.

Then, I worked on a puzzle that Katie gave me for a bit. Yes, I really like puzzles. Then I put on a pretty dress and Charlie took me to F Scotts. A fantastic fancy restaurant/jazz lounge that was so wonderful! We are such foodies.
