I had so much fun working with the kids. You can see all their faces beam up in excitement and amazement on all the projects Caitlin (the girl scout who spearheaded this event ) had prepared for them.
Armed with my Redbox rentals and munchies, I was ready to plop myself in the couch. Seriously, when you get to a certain age ;-), you just don't feel like celebrating anymore. I seriously wanted to stop the hands of time!
But, I caved in and agreed to go on a dinner. I'm glad I did 'cause I had so much fun!
What I am wearing:
dress: BCBG Max Azria(also here)
shoes: Christian Louboutin (also here)
wood bead purse: Ann Taylor
chunky gold braided bracelet: BeBe
This dress had a brown sash with it but I didn't feel like wearing it. I think it looked so much better without it.
To those of you who are new to my blog, my posts almost always include food in it =). We had dinner at J Alexander's (one of my fave restaurants):
And of course wine, more food and dessert with beautiful music at the Grape:
I have been eating a lot lately I will need to start swimming again to get me to fit into my other clothes! Well, at least until after this month. What? There are more eating planned this week! lol
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend lovelies!

First of all... happy belated birthday! Love the fact you went volunteering on your special day, helping others instead of pampering yourself :) I used to work at a childrens charity as well (more babies than children actually).
Gorgeous dress and shoes... you look terrific and the food looks so good. Craving a steak now... I know what you mean about birthdays. I've been getting lazy celebrating mine as well.
Oh, and I've started swimming for the last few months as well as a way to keep fit (instead of going to the gym). I forgot how much I enjoyed it :)
happy belated bday!!!
