... So we went to get some delicious barbecue!
 |
| Enjoying a birthday beer |
 |
| Pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw on top (om nom nom), with BBQ baked beans and the most bangin' macaroni salad I've ever had on the side (and housemade pickles) |
 |
| THE BEST. |
 |
| Ribs, mac & cheese, BBQ baked beans and cornbread (which I also ate) |
 |
| ...And then my mom made Steven's favorite cake (yellow cake with chocolate icing), with fresh strawberries and vanilla bean ice cream. I think I probably gained 5 pounds this day. |
Birthdays are sort of weird when you get a little older. I am pretty insistent that I have some kind of celebration, if I can help it. Because I'm kind of a princess. I think I'm just always chasing the same kind of birthday parties my mom used to throw for me when I was little (she is the queen of party planning!). I am definitely planning on having a costume party for my 25th! My birthday is at the very end of October (just a few days before Halloween), so it lends itself to being a costumed event, don't you think? Especially for a girl who basically dresses in quasi-costumes on a regular basis.
I hope my Steven had a nice birthday, despite the fact that it wasn't too eventful. He's still in the midst of settling in to his new place (he's waiting on the magical IKEA delivery truck). Steven's dad made the 6 hour drive up here to bring some additional things (like a super cute old wood table that we're planning on painting!), so he'll be spending Father's Day with my family today, too. :)
As a little reminder, the countdown to the elimination of Google Reader has begun (sob). If you'd like to continue following me over at Bloglovin', I'd be ever-so-grateful!! :)
Have a wonderful Sunday (and Father's Day)!
