Birthday Celebration!

I had the BEST birthday celebration at the beach this past weekend.  I am so grateful to have great friends and family in my life!

The fun started early when we all hit the road Friday afternoon and headed for the beach.  We went to New Smyrna Beach where my Aunt & Uncle have a beach house. 

Here are just a few of the highlights from the weekend:

Look what I got for my birthday……

BTW – If you were thinking that my foot looked a little orange in those pictures, you’re right.  I got a spray tan the day or so before, so I wouldn’t look so pale on the beach.  This way, I was tan, and I could wear SPF 50 all day and not risk the run damage. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Mike got up on Saturday morning and made us a delicious breakfast.  My favorite!

On Saturday, we spent a total of 9 hours on the beach (minus the hour nap I took inside).  My Aunt & Uncle, parents, cousins and their kids, all joined us on the beach for the day.  Later, we got cleaned up and had dinner at The Garlic!garlic

We had a lot of fun using my camera (which was my early birthday gift from Josh) too.  We took portraits and definitely got silly!

We even had our own mini dance party!

As you can see, it was such a fun weekend, and a great way to kick off my 30’s!
