today is my birthday!!

Today is my 35th birthday.

Instead of throwing myself a pity party because I’m 5 years away from 40, I decided that the second half of my 30’s are going awesome!  To celebrate, Mr. Weekly Bite & I had a little date night over the weekend.

I treated myself to a pretty yellow dress from Anthropologie, put on my cute strappy sandals, and Mr. Weekly Bite & I had a night on the town for the first time since LK was born.

 

We ventured out to the Gas Lamp Quarter in downtown San Diego and dined al fresco at a delicious Mexican food restaurant…

I got to enjoy my most favorite beverage of all time…

Eat some of the best chips & salsa I’ve ever had…

… and chowed down a one might tasty meal.



I’d like to say our night on the town continued… but knowing LK would be waking up in the wee hours made for an earlier than normal night.

It was the perfect way to begin the second half of my 30’s 🙂

    Happy Birthday Estela! It does look like a great way to begin the second half of your 30’s! I turned 35 back in June myself, and I did have a little pity party moment but I got over it. Hope you have a fantastic day!

    I am normally a lurker but I just wanted to comment to say happy birthday. I really enjoy your blog. I turned 35 in January and it was made easier by the fact that I was 8 months pregnant with my first child. I just knew that future birthdays were going to be fabulous!
