Golden Birthday!

Wow.  If 29 has anything to do with the first weekend/day of the year...boy I am excited.  My birthday this year was truly magical. 

My birthday celebration started the Saturday before at a fancy dinner at Quince in the city.  It was awesome!  Followed by a dear friends birthday/engagement party!

The day of my birthday started off with a wonderful birthday call from my parents.  Then I arrived to work & my cube/desk was totally decked out.  My team is so awesome!  It was followed by my first flower delivery from my awesome LA team and then a second flower delivery by my team in SF.  Then we went to a fun birthday lunch that I shared with my adorable friend Rimi.  The team also got some amazing cupcakes from Burlingame Ave...YUM!

The magical birthday day ended with an awesome birthday dinner at home.  I really was craving my mom's smoked sausage & velveeta mac n' cheese.  So Nick helped make dinner & Casey came over.  Nick surprised me by getting my first card for any occasion in the last 7 years...and got sweet little cakes for us to celebrate with. 

But some of my favorite birthday moments happened over Skype.  I first skyped with my parents, gram, papa & dude.  And I about died when they had a cookie with a candle.  They did the whole shebang with singing & me blowing out the candles!  A few moments later I hear the computer's Skype ring.  It was Scotty & Michelle and the boys!  It was so great to Skype with them.  The boys finally got it & were able to talk to me!  But then...they pulled out a cake with candles too!  They also sang Happy Birthday & had me blow out the candles. 

At the end of the day, I felt so very blessed & lucky to have such a wonderful circle of family & friends. Here's to the last year of my twenties!

Cheers!
