Today I can officially begin my quarter life crisis (that is assuming that I live to an even 100 years). Its hard to believe how fast the years have already gone by, and I hear it only gets faster. However, this weekend I’ve been living life in the slow and easy lane, hanging out with some good friends up at the cottage. I’ve lived off of a steady diet of burgers, fruit salad, birthday cake and cold drinks all weekend and it has been fantastic.
The weekend all started on Friday night when a few of my girlfriends from the city drove up with me to my parents’ place to have dinner with my family.
See all those candles? That was because my sister read about the 8 candles on my previous post and decided she had to get all 25 this time (the 25th one is that wee little one in the middle. too cute)
The cake was from a nut-free company called Tickle Your Tummy.
And with cake, came presents…which Whiskey of course had to jump on my lap to help open. I was very spoiled, with lots of fun goodies that I can’t wait to use. (including a new food processor! Woohoo!)
I have more pictures and stories to share from this weekend, but I need to get back outside to enjoy the rest of the afternoon, so they’ll just have to wait until tomorrow. What is a better way to finish off your birthday/long weekend than laying out on the dock in the sun, reading a good book? I can’t think of anything I’d rather do right now (well…maybe eat more birthday cake. That stuff is addictive!)
