Tomorrow is my twentieth birthday and since it falls on the dreaded
Monday and all of the family is home, we celebrated over the weekend. I am kind
of high maintenance (kind of ;)) so we celebrated ALL day Saturday with lots of
sweets, lots of pink, and lots of the things that make help define me!
Nathan and Lindsey
came home from their college on Friday. We spent the evening at home and then
decided to take a trip to Ulta (that didn't last long for them.. they ended up
at Metro Shoe Warehouse), and Cane's (we may be a little addicted to their
sweet tea).
On Saturday,
we slept in (ahh the beauty of not having to wake up for school or homework!),
woke up somewhere near ten, and began to get ready for the day. My mom and
sister left for an 'appointment' (mmmhmm..) and I enjoyed the time I got to
play with my hair and makeup... A girl has to get dolled up on her birthday,
right??
Wearing my BaubleBar necklace (seen on Lindsay & Whitney's blog)
& my tunic from Necessary Clothing
They came home and told me to come outside (I love surprises! So I was all for this!)
They bought me the absolute cutest cake from Nothing Bundt Cakes in OKC. We waited until Saturday night to eat it, but let me tell you that it is the yummiest cake we have ever had. A white chocolate raspberry cake. So good.
My bedroom has the best lighting, so bear with me on the photos. ;)
Lindsey bought me the new Gucci perfume, Bamboo, and I die with how amazing it smells. My hairstylist had it on one day and I have pretty much stalked the Gucci section in Ulta ever since she told me what she was wearing. Lindsey's birthday is in a couple of weeks, so I'm going to have to up this gift. I don't know how that's possible, though. This gift was perfect.
As much as I love my Urban Decay 'Naked' palettes (I have 2 & 3), I love my Tarte 'Showstopper' palette. I mentioned in my Favorites post about my love for Tarte, but I'll say it again. Tarte is AH-MAZING. Such beautiful products! My gifts from my parents (my mom sure knows what to buy me!) were the Tarte Energy Noir palette and Lip Surgence. The purples in these are stunning. STUNNING. I'll do another post to show you how beautiful they are.
I really do have the best family.
I had to get good pictures with the cake and added the products in with it to get the 'perfect' Instagram picture, but I hope with these you can see just how darling it is. If you are in the OKC area or Tulsa area, do yourself (and your families) a favor and eat one of these cakes. They come in minis too!
I have a feeling being twenty is going to be 'sweet'! ;)
