out to eat

Thursday was my birthday. I turned 20. Weird.

Anyways, I had such a fun birthday/weekend!

My dad was out of town (for work) on my birthday so my mom, sister, and I went out to lunch, got coffee, and went shopping. I had to teach spinning that night, but Jimmy and his brother came out to my house (totally surprised me!) and enjoyed cake with my family. My momma made carrot cake and we also picked up an ice cream cake.It’s hard to explain how much I love carrot cake.

Jimmy got me the two best birthday gifts ever. A cactus and coloring supplies!! So what did I do? I drew him a thank you cactus card…On Saturday Jimmy took me out to dinner. He’s too sweet :). We went to a fancy Italian restaurant and we felt totally out of place but really enjoyed the food! I also received a special hand-made birthday card from one of my favorite blogging friends!Thank you, Laura!

My birthday was really special, I felt so blessed to be surrounded by all of the people in my life that I love the most!

How was your weekend?!

Today at 2PM I go to the doctor to discuss a few issues with my nutrition (AKA: Should I continue to be a vegetarian?) I will let you all know how it went ASAP!

As summer is dwindling down to its last few days for me, I have been living it up!

Swimming + reading w/ Jimmy

Shopping (I didn’t buy anything here ^ lol)

Enjoying Pittsburgh

Heinz ketchup! ( I hope everyone in the blog world uses Heinz!)

I have also been out to eat a few times lately… I love going out to eat!! It is super fun to try new things on the menu and not have to labor over a meal every once in a while 😉

This was at Eat n Park.. I forgot to take a picture of my main dish but I did remember to take a picture of the good stuff… corn bread, strawberry coffee cake, and veg + noodle soup!
