You know your weekend is good when...

When it's still three weeks away from your birthday and you get taken out by your girlfriends for a surprise birthday night out!

First dinner...

(With a stop on the way for the most amazing Carribean Colada smoothie you've ever tasted)

Then to the theater to see My Fair Lady!

^^Jana, Tricia, Kelly & I^^

BEST. NIGHT. EVER. It was absolutely one of the best plays I've seen. I kept leaning forward to whisper "this is just delightful!" to the other girls and found myself grinning over and over again. 

I am a fool for musicals. And my Jana friend knows me so well, which is why she orchestrated the whole thing (I love her so.) Of course I had to come home and instantly find the movie to rewatch.... I think I love it even more now :)

Thank you again, girls!

And that was only Friday night! Saturday night was my cousin's wedding... and if there's anything that can compete with a night out at the theater, it's a beautiful outdoors evening wedding, surrounded by family and old friends.

^^Gideon & Blair (who is technically my first cousin once removed as she is my first cousin's oldest daughter. But we don't care about technical.) Don't ask me why I am awkwardly crouching over her. ^^

Yep, it was a good weekend.
