I celebrated my 27th birthday last week, and it was a grand day! It was a really wonderful weekend, actually.
Went on a long walk with the pups, and took a few last shots of my favorite time of year. {am I the only one still desperately clinging to the last bits of Autumn?} I'm so sad to see it leave.
My friend Christina took me to a used book store, {on Base} so all the books were in ENGLISH! I bought just a few.
And just as I was driving back home, a met a man in our driveway holding a BEAUTIFUL floral arrangement in his hands. From my parents :)
'Pretty' is rarely a sufficient word for such blooms.
Mom Ogden sent this absolutely adorable apron a few days ago. I've actually never owned an apron! Well, I'm in love with this cute thing. {It's so darling that I almost don't want to get it dirty!}
A few other weekend activities: Going to Metz, France Christmas Market. I have to admit....it was a little bit of a let-down. With the exception of the ferris wheel.
Ate stuffed mushrooms, à la Dani:
Nom nom.
And played a serious game of Texas Hold 'em.
So it was a really fun and full weekend.
Our friends are our family over here. I hate to see some of them moving on and leaving, but these are the friends that we'll have for a lifetime!
