Birthday Weekend

Yesterday was my birthday, and I think I am now in the ambiguous thirties. Creeping closer and closer to mid-thirties but I am okay with it. We went to Mobile for a fun weekend with family and friends and had a fantastic time. Friday night we stayed in at my parent's house and ate some great Santa Fe Soup. They had my favorite birthday treat: a chocolate chip ice cream cake from Baskin Robbins!



Then, Saturday morning, mom and I took Thomas over to meet her good friend, Margaret. He was really good at her house, and she even got the chance to feed him, which gave me a nice break to have a cup of coffee.



After that, we headed over to a Mobile tradition, lunch at the Dew Drop Inn. We met dad, Myles, Grandmother, Aunt Darlene, Margaret and her husband, and Jessica, Jeremy, and Luke there for lunch. Jess got in plenty of cuddle time with T, and Luke loved getting to see his new best friend :)




Then Saturday night, my parents were more than happy to have some alone time with Thomas while BT and I went out to dinner with Elizabeth, Charles, Jessica, and Jeremy. After a great dinner at La Pizzaria, we capped off the night at the Wine Loft.





Sunday morning, Bobby Bowden was the guest preacher at our church. What a great speaker and an amazing opportunity to hear such a legend.

Overall, a fantastic night and a great weekend!
