Happy Birthday to You

Wednesday, January 25, 2012

Well, I've almost gotten myself caught up on my blogging!  Russ and I drove in from Gatlinburg to celebrate my sister's birthday.  When we drove up to my parents' house, the bulldog out front greeted us...


We celebrated with family for a little birthday dinner of chicken spaghetti and sides.  The birthday cake was super duper cute!  You would think it was ordered weeks in advance, right?  Nope.  Mama had the best luck a couple of hours before dinner when she walked up on this cute cake!  Ha!

We all enjoyed our dinner, laughed a little, talked about our trip a little, and started singing "Happy Birthday" when Mama brought out the cake.


Kristin made her wish and blew out the candles...


Then, it was time for gifts!  Russ and I found this adorable owl apron in Gatlinburg and knew we had to pick it up!  I'm kinda wishing I had picked one up for myself!  I guess since Kristin is the cook in our family, it's better fit for her.


After dinner, we all gathered in the living room to catch up on the newest Grey's Anatomy before Russ and I spent the night with Kristin and Lee.  The next morning, we woke up and got ready for a birthday lunch at Pepper's with Kristin, Lee, Mama, me, Russ, and two of Kristin's friends.

Lee planned "the real party" for the night of Kristin's birthday.  He fired up the grill and invited some of Kristin's friends for a night of fun!


No party really gets started good until we bring out the karaoke machine!  This called for a much more comfortable attire.  I can honestly say there were some fabulous singers performing!  I can also honestly say that there were some...including myself...who really should never sing into a microphone. Ever again!  Ha!

Girls just wanna have fun!
Sisters!
The guys spent their night in front of the television watching a bowl game while us girls cut up in the kitchen with karaoke as loud as it could go!  It was a night full of great friends, fabulous food, interesting games, and fun times!

I'm so proud!
Happy birthday, Kristin!
