Birthday Extravaganza part deux.

Well to go with last weekend Corey and Erin came over and took Chris and I out to dinner at Cancun- a fantastic Mexican restaurant. They then came over and baked me an awesome cake we celebrated with board games. Here is a few pictures from that evening...

Moving on to Toledo!
I went down to Toledo for a few reasons... one to attend a BFA show, and the other to celebrate birthdays! The BFA show was more or less a joke... sad to say but barely any of the faculty were there and the ones that were barely spoke a single word to me. I drove two hours to see one girl in the show= who ended up leaving within five minutes after I arrived. I'll make sure not to go out of my way to see old friends again that's for sure. However Amy, Andrea, and Kara showed up and that was an amazing time and I am glad at least someone cared to show up.
After the show ended at 8...even though it was to go til 9. The girls and I headed toward the Blarney Stone, an Irish pub downtown across from the Mud Hens stadium. I got my cover paid and a drink for my past birthday! yay!
Here is a great picture of my old drawing room- oh how I miss it!

Then on Saturday, my sister and her husband came down to celebrate our birthdays, mine a week late and hers a week early. We went out to lunch at Zingo's an awesome Mediterranean restaurant. I had a nice grilled chicken gyro. I'll take Chris there someday. After that we went shopping for maternity clothes and then back home to go out to dinner at Tony Packo's! It was a good time. Afterwards we went home for cake and presents!
