My birthday this year was just perfect. Since the news of my sister's baby and with all of us now in Charleston (including my brother in grad school) , my parents bought a little house down in Charleston to be close to us and have a place to stay once the baby comes. It has made it so fun to have my parents close by and be able to do more "day-to-day" stuff with them. Well we had my first birthday dinner there and it was so fun! Mom, Dad, Lauren, Richard, Ryan, Liz, Jordan, and Will and Matt and I got to celebrate! I didn't take any pictures, but it was such a fun night.
The night of my actual birthday we went with a bunch of our friends to Your Pie. Probably seems familiar because that's the exact thing we did last year, but it was just the perfect spot to go again :)
Matt got me a new lens for my camera for my bday (more on that later), so these pictures are a little funny looking. I was experimenting with all the settings while at dinner.
Becca made me the most WONDERFUL homemade pumpkin cake. Pumpkin is my favorite!
