My First 29th Birthday....

My 29th birthday was this past week! I really thought it would be ultra low key considering Matt would be out of town all week! However, after taking dinner to one of my best friends who just had a baby, I walked through my door only to be pushed out (or whisked away) while leaving my kids in my dad (& I later found out Jimmy's) care! Where were we going? Nobody would tell me! However, I quickly realized that I looked quite dreadful and nobody was making a big deal about that! A few other things started clicking and before you know it, I knew we were going to a place I had been wanting to go called Sips N Strokes! Who would be there waiting for me was still a suprise! Turned out it was almost all of my favorite girls! Despite the fact that I"m no artist, this was a fun relaxing night! They give you a little guidance and you begin to paint, socialize, eat, sip, socialize, eat, sip, oh and paint!



The evening was a GREAT surprise (which really says something because I hate suprises)! Now I haven't hung up my painting because I still think it looks too terrible to pass as art but perhaps time will change my perspective! Thanks to all my friends & family who made my 29th birthday a special treat!
