My Birthday

23 is off to a fabulous start!  I can't believe I am only two years away from turning 25. Time really does fly by.

So far my birthday morning has been great.

But, backing up to yesterday, I spent the majority of the day lounging around in my pajamas. Fabuuuuulous. After being away for a week, it was nice to sleep in my own bed. Around 1:30 I finally headed got my butt off the couch to the gym. Since I only had 45 minutes, I decided for a shoulder & hamstring workout. I was not in the mood at all, but it left me feeling energized. The rest of the day was spent getting some food in the fridge and unpacking.

Of course I had to pick up some birthday goodies at the food store.

No celebration is complete without cookies and cake with lots of frosting!

While baking the cake I had the very important task of licking the bowl clean, yum.

After eating raw cake, I was sort of full, but knew I needed at least something nutritious for dinner. An egg sandwich was whipped up. I can't get enough of eggs lately.

Last week, I won't lie I was a little bummed I wouldn't be spending my birthday laying on a beach in Mexico like we had planned. Life happens and you just have to roll with it. I do have exciting news though, Mom and I were able to re-book our vacation for around the same price. We leave Sunday for a week in Dominican Republic. I am beyond excited since I haven't ever been before!

Today's birthday plans include getting massages with the boyfriend. A day spent relaxing is just what I need. We're not sure where we are going for dinner yet. Maybe sushi or Italian?! Not sure, but I know I will be thoroughly enjoying all those delicious desserts!

Catch you all later. Xo
