Happy birthday to me!!!

Today is my birthday! Yes, the day after Christmas! Horrible, you think? No way! It is what I have always known and I like having my birthday the day after! It is three days of family, friends, and presents! I thought it would be fun to go through some of my past birthday celebrations! Don't make fun - I think I look better with age! :)

1996
I had a joint birthday party with three friends, Devry, Melida, and Lisa. It was not the day after Christmas, but we had a blast. We had a pool party with all of our friends!

2000
My 16th birthday!! I went out to dinner with my friends at a fancy restaurant in Highland Park and remember having virgin daiquiris!

2004
21st Birthday!! We went to eat with my parents, brother, sister in law, and then my dad dropped Ashleigh and I off on Greenville to meet up with some friends! It definitely was a fun night!

2005
After dinner with my dad and grandmother, Brittany and Ashleigh and I hit up the bars all along McKinney Ave in Dallas. I had just moved into my apartment in Dallas so it was all so new to me!

2006
Again, out to dinner with the family and a shot with my brother! Then Brittany and I met up with friends at Dragon Fly at Hotel Zaza.

2007
Karaoke at the Corner Bar! My birthday was on a Wednesday night so that meant karaoke! This really was a fun night!

2009
We celebrated low key this year, by going to dinner at my neighborhood pizza place, Franki's, and then family and friends coming back to our house for gifts and cake. Here is Mason posing with me!

 2010
We celebrated with the family during the day by bowling and lunch and that night I went out with all my friends who were in town. Here is Ashleigh, AJ, me, and Brittany. We went to dinner at Nick and Sam's Grill and then Quarter Bar.
This year we are going to the Mavericks game with Brittany and her fiance Dave! I think it will be a fun way to celebrate this year!

Happy Birthday!! That must be awesome! Do you use the giftcards to go out and get things you didn't get for Christmas? I would so do that!

I found you through Mia and Neely! Love the birthday through the years recap! My birthday is actually the 25th, and I get the same question ALL THE TIME-- doesn't it suck being born on Christmas?? I don't know anything else, so it works just fine for me! Lol.

Hope you have a great new year! :)
