Holy moly. This week was insane...more like just today. I guess in order to have a three day weekend there has to be some kind of sacrifice...and today it was my sanity. But High Five for Friday is all about celebrating the good during the week so here goes.... 1. Dinner with my college roommate and best friend on Thursday. We hadn't seen...
A luau wouldn't exactly be my choice of birthday party but my cousin found a recipe for a giant fishbowl drink on Pinterest and we needed an occasion to make it so my birthday it was!
