Youth is wasted on the young

My birthday is today.  I am 33!  I have finally reached the age Handy Daddy was the day we tied the knot.

Circa 2002

 I've done a lot of growing in that time.  Man....I am so grown up.  I don't feel older, but I feel so much wiser.  And happier.  And more content.  Youth really is wasted on the young.

Anyway...

I had an amazing birthday weekend!  I don't think it could've been any better.

We started out on Friday afternoon.  Some of my BFFs and I headed to Baton Rouge for some much needed girl time.  We shopped and ate at our usual Baton Rouge girl spot -- P.F. Chang's.  Mmmmmmmm...good stuff.  Then we got gelato at Whole Foods.  We actually made three trips to Whole Foods in two days.  Then up on Saturday morning to hit the outlet mall.  I looooooovvvvveeee the outlet mall.  I had a great time.  Oh, and we laughed A LOT.


Handy Daddy did just fine at home with the girls while I was gone 30 hours.  Don't fret...I have a call in to the Queen to have him knighted. 

They did venture out to buy Mama a chocolate dobash cake.  Again, score for Handy Daddy.

My dad, grandfather, godchild and mother-in-law joined us to partake of same dobash cake.


I enjoyed EVERY.MINUTE of my birth weekend, including all of the calls from all my peeps I didn't get to see today.  I love y'all!

As a side note, Tootsie ate her first piece of meat today (in her whole life, and she'll be 2 next month).  This is because she has been a vegetarian by her own choice thus far, so imagine our surprise when she ate almost an entire slice of a Dupe Special pizza from Pizza Village.  Sausage, pepperoni and shrimp.  The girl jumps in head first, huh?

Back to the grind tomorrow.  Can't wait 'till next year. 


Oh, but first, Survivor finale tonight!  Go Matt!  or Mike!
