birthday recap

I celebrated my 28th birthday on Friday, but the party didn't stop there! Okay, so there wasn't actually a party, but I did have an incredibly busy weekend. Shopping, eating, bike riding, eating, a little more shopping, and a little more eating! I tried to remember to take a few pictures to share...

A few of my favorite things... the first is the "Birthday Princess" sash Chris left over the seat of my Blazer for me to find when I went out for work on Friday morning. He left balloons through the house with questions on them, and I thought, like last year, he'd filled my Blazer up to the windows with balloons (in which case I would have murdered him)! The next few things are some of my favorite gifts. Sunnies (I haven't really wanted to take them off), green ballet flats, a large antique bird print from Pop and Tricia, a large antique blue jay print from my grandma. I also got gift cards, candles, underwear (can you guess who gave me those?), and money.

Chris and I went biking on Saturday and got in about 12 miles, then Pop, Tricia, Chris and I went riding on Sunday and got in another 12 miles, so it wasn't as much as I'd hoped for, but I'd say it was still good (and fun) exercise!

I've been wanting a pair of fun, patterned tights to wear with jean shorts or plain dresses than need a little jazzing up, and I found these on the anthropologie website. I really like them, but I have my heart set on the lighter, more spring-like floral tights I've seen on we heart it. Anyone know where I can find them?
