24 and many more...

So, this past week was my 24th birthday and I couldn't have been more blessed with better friends or family to have shared it with!

The day started off with class at KSU and when I came home, Patrick had a nice breakfast made for me with a little extra surprise on the table!

Classic Ray Ban Aviators from Sunglass Hut
Prior to my birthday, Patrick gave me this beautiful Kate Spade necklace as an early gift--he couldn't keep it a secret!

Following breakfast, Patrick and I went to the gym, picked up firehouse (PS- It's FREE on your birthday), and headed to Alexander Park for a cute little picnic under a big Oak tree. It was so nice to sit in God's great nature...it felt like a mini vacay.
These two have my whole heart
Fun fact, my best friend/roomie and I share the same birthday, how wild is that? So, after the park, we all headed to the nail salon for Mani/Pedi's + wine.... including Patrick.... shhhhh!

Okay, now the point of this post was to talk about the delicious blueberry lemon pound cake my sister made for me. It was perfect.

Lastly, my sister got me an awesome watercolor paint set and some new calligraphy pens... here's my first painting!
 

Happy Thursday, everyone!
