November 8th and updated today…I’m a little slow getting this one up!
Well, my birthday came and went again. I heard a quote once
that said, “Do not regret growing older, it is a privilege denied to many”. And
with that, I’m happy to grow another year older!
My actual birthday was last Sunday but we celebrated on
Saturday.
Mom, Dad and I made our annual trek to Calvary, GA for Mule
Day. If you’re not from around these parts, you can read about Mule Day here.
We didn’t buy anything but food. Is that really a bad thing?
Dad got some real Cane Syrup that they make on the spot, but again that’s still
a form of food. The jar was still hot! Nice and fresh.
On the way home we stopped at a few antique shops and walked
around Havana for a little while. Havana is a super cute quaint little town
that has lots of cool antique shops and neat little eat-in places.
There was one store there that Mom and I just loved. I wanted absolutely everything in it. Oh, if only money grew on trees!
We also stopped and hung out for a little bit at Lake Jackson. It was so beautiful
We wrapped up our exhausting day of shopping (according to
Dad) and I went home for a little bit to chill out before heading out for
birthday dinner!
We went to our usual spot, El Jalisco. I had one too many
margaritas. As in, one more than zero and I was feeling fine! Ha!
Mom, Logan, Me
And I know, the ink has barely dried on my cheap
Rainboots post but y’all, Costco had the classic tall matte Hunters on sale
for $79.99! That is unheard of. These boots are usually $140.00 which is why
I’ve never bought them in the past. And, they’ve never fit me before because of
my calves. Well, I have a friend who has a pair and when I saw the deal I was
going to try one last time to see if they fit. She let me try hers on and my
legs actually fit in them since I’ve dropped 20 lbs! So I finally got a pair.
And I love them. Now I won’t be stuffing jeans into them any time soon because
they sure aren’t roomy but I plan to lose about 15 more lbs so they
should be a little looser and stretch out with time. But I can definitely wear
them which I never could before!
I was torn on picking a color but ultimately decided on the
class Olive/Hunter Green Wellies. I’m in love.
Afterwards we went back to my parents house and snuggled in
to get ready for some FSU Football! The Noles stomped the Canes and I was one
happy birthday girl!
Sunday was low-key and relaxing. We had a yummy dinner at my
parents’ and that was that.
It was a great birthday and I can’t wait to see what this
next year has in store!
