Geburtstag in your face

This weekend, I celebrated my birthday in high style. It would only turn out to be high style because my favorite stylist Ryan from Salon Vox joined us for fun later in the evening. The night started out somewhat less classy though, because that's how I roll. Especially where Mexican food is concerned.
I've mentioned before that one of my favorite places to eat is La Fuente in Ypsilanti. Brad and I frequent the establishment often, so it was not unnatural that I wanted to spend my Birthday there. I also wanted to share my love of Mexican with some of my nearest and dearest, so I invited them along for the ride. They so gratiously accepted (who wouldn't where free food and drinks are concerned?)

We started off our evening at the bar, slurping our enormous dacqairi's and margarita's while waiting for a table to be available. Turns out there were a few other birthday's being celebrated on Saturday, so we had to wait just a bit without reservations for our group of seven.

Kristal and Birgles love those giant drinksSteph and I also have fun with straws

Once we got seated, we had good food and good times. The food was as delish as ever, and my friends bestowed some of the best birthday love on me. Also, note to self, unless you're really careful NOT to have your mister tell the wait staff it's your birthday, they will also bestow love upon you. In the not so fantastic form of making you wear a giant token sombrero and shoving your face in a big pile of fried ice cream while they distract you with eating cherries. So watch out for that.

This is apparently what 29 looks like

After the ice cream adventure, it was off for a night cap at Original Gravity, our local micro-brewery here in Milan. The beers were awesome as always (love that porter!), and the company was much appreciated.

Best stylist ever Ryan, and Hippee Happy me

I forsee many summer evenings spent at OG on the patio!
Thanks to all my lovelies for making a lady feel so special. Especially before she embarks upon the big 3-0 next year! XOXO.
