Birthday Weekend @ the lake








Birthday Twins
this past weekend, my friends and i did a couples trip to the lake! the special occasion was to celebrate mine and Vanessa's birthday... we are some[what] birthday twins, her birthday being the 9th and mine on the 11th. i haven't been to Berryessa in yearssss. i really thought my lake days were over, but this weekend has sparked my interest to take future trips to lake and bring the kids too. everyone needs an adult trip but i sure did miss the kids. i had such a great time. Vanessa and her family opened up their home to us and allowed us to have the best weekend yet. good food, good drinks and good company!! i think its safe to say that we got a little outta control Friday night ;) we were kinda excited to be there and the mixture of alcohol sure wasn't the best idea. i was drinking like i thought i was 18 again!! thank god for a camera. i almost forgot some of the funniest moments of the night.

love her.

friends<3

saturday morning came and i was in rare form. nothing a mimosa cant cure. we spent the day on the boat! congrats to keith and jessica on their new toy! we were lake virgins together :) note to self: practice driving a boat first before you start pulling people from the back! it can be stressful! oh and always have a stocked cooler. more is better. i could have stayed on the lake till the moon came out. it was so nice outside. the water was warm, which was great! i attempted to wake board, uh yeah NO. i was not born to do water sports. its a fact. 

"martha" is at it again
best[est] friend ever.

later on that night, tracey and the other girlies had a whole bday party planned for vanessa and i. we were banned from the house while the magic was happening. when we got to go in i was truly speechless. the effort they put into making it a great birthday was priceless. we had a pink flamingo/margarita party!! cupcakes made by my lovely mama. which were delish!! blow up flamingo's, presents galore, rice crispy treats, birthday baskets with matching tiara's for the birthday girls! it was great... i felt so loved. i have such great friends in my life. new and old, im happy to call them my friends. we have such a great time together, and there is never a dull moment... well saturday night wasnt as wild as friday night, but i think the sun drained us all. i was exhausted. being pampered is tough!!
