A Weekend of Birthdays

Kent's 35th birthday was on Friday, which was perfect, because he now has Friday's off from work (he now works Monday-Thursday, usually 6:30 a.m. - 5 p.m. w/ a 30-min. lunch). We had planned on a sushi dinner with friends, so we headed over to their house around 7 p.m. Little did Kent know that I had arranged for one of our limos to pick us all up! I couldn't think of one single time in the last 18 months since we started our business that Kent actually got to sit IN THE BACK of a limo and just enjoy himself. We've taken limos out a few times for family surprises and get-togethers, but Kent was always the one doing the driving! He was super surprised, and we all enjoyed a bottle of champagne on the way to A-Tan Sushi Bar in N.B.



After dinner it was off to Liberty Bistro for dessert and drinks, where Kent had his all-time favorite dessert, Pot de Crème.

Saturday night was my mom's birthday. The whole fam headed over to McAdoo's in N.B. for some delicious seafood.


The birthday girl!
Yes, there is a story behind this strangely cropped photo. Some members of our party were feeling a bit self-conscious after their large meal, and I was told that I must crop the photo in the appropriate place before posting. :)


It was a great weekend!

Birthday, BBQ and a Celebrity

My brother hit the big 2-5 in July, so we gathered up some family and friends and went to The Salt Lick to celebrate. Yes, this happened over a month ago now, but I thought it was still post-worthy. Here are some highlights of the evening. Keep reading to see which celebrity we brushed shoulders with that night!

My sister and I on the looong (but totally worth it!) car ride to The Salt Lick in Driftwood.



Here we are with Kyle Chandler! He was eating with his family, and Kelsey was the brave one who went up to him when they were leaving and asked if we could take his picture. He was super nice and oh so cute. If you don't recognize him immediately, he stars in the TV show Friday Night Lights as the coach. He's also been on Grey's Anatomy, King Kong and a show in the 90s called Early Edition, which I had never seen, but Kent used to watch.

Here's a stalkeresque photo that I snapped from our table earlier in the night, when we were still unsure if it was really him. My zoom works really well!


Kelsey jamming out on Mike's "guitar" which was a plastic container that can be filled with your drink of choice!

We headed over to J's Bistro in San Marcos after dinner for a couple of hours of sing-a-long with the piano.

Happy birthday, Ryan!
