Birthday Blog

Last weekend we celebrated Chris's 40th Birthday. It has taken me a week to post the details.

On Friday I picked Chris up from work in a Limo. I know it was a little goofy but it was nice to just sit back and enjoy the Friday rush hour drive to downtown with my sweet hubby. We checked in the the Ritz Carlton in Dallas on Friday afternoon. This hotel is beautiful and the staff there is wonderful. We headed down to the Rattlesnake Bar to enjoy an afternoon snack and a little happy drinks before dinner. Chris sand I were able to just sit and have some great conversation. Talk about important things. It is great to know we are both on the same page as to where we want our lives to head in the future.

Our good friends Clay and Debbie met us for dinner and this was a big surprise to Chris. We always have a great time with Clay and Debbie. They are a ton of fun. Chef Dean Feering came by our table several times to chat with us. he looked a little confused when I told him I would like to have the #1 and go ahead value size it since it's a special occasion and all. On a serious note Feerings is one of the best restaurants I have ever been to. Food and service were amazing and if you live in Dallas you must go here sometime.

After Dinner we headed to the back to the bar and enjoyed some of the best people watching I have seen in years. This was the place to see and be seen in Dallas. As a bonus I got to see Sting.

My Mom and Harper came the next morning to pick us up and enjoy a wonderful brunch. Later Chris and I went to hang out with all the crazy Parrot Heads for the Jimmy Buffet concert. Words can't describe everything I saw there and some how i don't have many pictures either. We spent all day in the sun drinking cold beer and hanging out with some friends from the hood.

We finished the weekend with brunch and Blue Mesa and a little shopping.

No crazy Birthday just a good time. Here are the pics.
