Birthday/Memorial Weekend

Hey all!! Sorry I haven't blogged in a while. Life has been busy and chaotic!

I had a great birthday on Friday! I'm officially in my late twenties. It's crazy how time flies. It feels like last year I was celebrating my 16th birthday. Or my 21st. My day wasn't spent doing anything real interesting. Mom, Scott and I had lunch at the Pinnacle gas station. I love their soup and salad bar. Mom and I went to Fayetteville to hunt for house stuff--it wasn't too successful. It's funny how the older you get, the less important birthdays seem. Just another day!! It used to feel like a special day. Not anymore. Sigh...

Later in the evening though, I threw a little housewarming/it just so happens to be my birthday too party. A lot of my friends came--we had good food and good wine--it was a lot of fun!

Mom and Dad spent the weekend with us. We went to Crystal Bridges which was fantastic. I'm embarrassed to say it was my first time and it's so crazy to me how many people were there and that such an amazing place is in my own backyard. I'm sometimes a NWA snob. This little northwest corner of Arkansas is amazing. We house such great stuff!!!! I'm very proud to live here. I have no desire to live anywhere else. Except maybe NYC. Or LA...or Chicago....or Paris or Venice....

Anyways...

Other than Crystal Bridges we laid around all lazy like and cooked yummy meals. It was great! Mom and Dad left yesterday after a good lunch at Fish City Grill. Dad loves eating there. We always eat there when he's here.

Today Scott and I checked out our neighborhood pool for the first time. We loved it! We live in such a great neighborhood. I'm totally going to take advantage of the pool this summer. It's nearly in my backyard...just a hop, skip and jump away!!

That's all for my memorial weekend I guess. It was very chill and spent with loved ones. Which is always perfection in my book.
