Sister Day

Thank you for all of your Birthday wishes!  It was so fun reading the comments  throughout our Sister Day.

It was also fun to read how many other March Birthdays there are :)

We had what I would consider a perfect day.

We went shopping:

Had a delicious lunch:

We sat outside on these very comfy couches and ate. It was so relaxing.

The food was delicious.

Started with the hummus trio:

Then shared this amazing grilled artichoke.  It was so good you didn’t even need the sauce it came with:

And then we had the blackened shrimp.  I have never had such juicy shrimp.  These were to die for!

Of course the server surprised us with a piece of birthday cake.

I LOVE cake!

I was a good girl and only ate about 1/4.  I really wanted to eat the whole thing but I knew I would be stuffed.

After lunch we made a quick stop at Whole Foods.

Love me some Kombucha! A Birthday treat because they are SO expensive :)

And then my sis treated us to manicures:

Finally we met the boys for dinner:

Not the best picture of us :(

More cake!

I t was a great day!

Thanks Sister!

And thanks to all of my friends who made it special for me.  All of the emails, texts, and comments made my day :)

Hope you are all enjoying your weekend.

Time for a Green Monster with lots of Spinach and NO chocolate.
