31st birthday

Recently, I celebrated my 31st birthday. I love birthdays- always have! We celebrated with my family the night before my birthday. We cooked out at my parents house with my parents, my cousin, and Grandmary. The girls had a blast- they were wired and did not go to bed until after 9 pm. The morning of my birthday, Ford woke me up and brought breakfast in bed and the girls. After breakfast in bed, Sarah Lawrence came over that morning and brought donuts so we were all on a sugar high. :) I went to a flower arranging class at church with friends, which was fun. The girls and I went to lunch with my mom, Grandmother, and Sarah Lawrence at Cheffie's. The night of my birthday, Ford and I went downtown. Before we left for our date, his parents stopped by, which was fun. Then we started our night. We went up to his office for a minute (my first time), then we walked downtown around Main and ended up at Flight for dinner. We loved Flight- it was delicious. Really enjoyed the concept of Flight. After dinner, we walked to the top of the Madison, which was fun and so pretty! Thursday night, a group of girls went to eat at Ciao Bella for me, Brittany, and Nell's birthday. It was a great night with friends. Here are some pics!

It was so fun Say Say had the day off on my birthday.

Nelly and I share the same birthday.

This is such a classic picture. It can be tough to get both girls to look at the camera.

This seems weird to put on a blog but since all of like 3 people know that I even have this blog, I want to put it on there so I can always remember it. Ford knows how much I love flowers, and it is always such a joy to me when he brings me flowers. He always brings them unarranged so that I get to arrange them. It is a really special thing he does for me.
