Twenty-Nine On The 29th | My Sister's Birthday Weekend...

So aside from being Memorial Day weekend this past weekend, it was also my sister's birthday weekend and as you can probably guess, we did a whole bunch of celebrating.

My sister's birthday weekend celebration started on Saturday evening with twenty people (Yup, you read that right... We were rolling twenty people deep) bar hopping locally here on Long Island. We hit up a few bars until we found one that had a DJ playing good music and we just danced for hours.
Eventually we got tired of dancing and decided to move along to another bar, where the crowd that was left had a few drinks before someone asked me to convince my sister that it would be a good idea to go to the local diner for a very late night snack. As you can probably guess it wasn't a very hard thing to do, all I did was say bacon a few times and she was totally in the mood for diner food.

We made our way to the diner where we had the nastiest waitress ever (I was dead sober so I can honestly tell you, she was a miserable old lady) who was totally mean to us, but the majority of the group was drunk so they didn't notice.

After eating our over priced diner food ($9.75 for six mozzarella sticks?!?!!) I drove my sister, her boyfriend, Toni and Amanda all home and didn't get into my own be until about 4:30AM.

Sunday was her actual birthday. So after spending the morning recovering from the evening before at our respective apartments, we met up at our parents' house with our significant others and went out for an early dinner at a local seafood place.
After filling up on our early dinner, we headed back to our parents' house to relax and digest before diving into her cake (Which thankfully wasn't a chocolate chocolate chocolate cake because that's what she normally gets and I hate super chocolatey cakes).

Over all it was an extremely successful birthday weekend with no drama (Well I hide the one bit of drama from my sister so she wouldn't freak out -- Her ex-boyfriend left a message on my Facebook status about being at the first bar that I had to delete so my sister and her current boyfriend wouldn't see it) and she really enjoyed herself, which is all that I care about.

Let Them Eat Cake...

"Emily" is too sweet. She came in today with four mini cakes so we could have a belated birthday celebration.
So instead of doing work we've been noshing on cake all afternoon. How's that for a nice day at work?

Chock Full o'Birthdays Weekend...

I spent this past weekend celebrating birthdays. Saturday we had a belated birthday dinner for my mother at the house (Mainly because she refused to let us take her out to dinner on her actual birthday which was last Thursday). I cooked dinner for the family and the boyfriends, it was nice aside from the fact that we all didn't sit together at the dinning room table (Our dinning room is full of stuff we managed to salvage from our den after Hurricane Sandy hit and we have nowhere else to put all the stuff, so we couldn't move everything to clear the table). Everyone enjoyed the dinner I cooked (Or pretended to at least), but not as much as the amazing cake I picked up from Dortoni Bakery in Levittown (If you live on Long Island and you need a cake, go to Dortoni's. This was the second cake we've purchased from them and both cakes were amazing). Overall it was a nice little family dinner, even though everyone but my mother wishes we just went out to a restaurant to save on the dishes & such.
Sunday afternoon was Jack's first birthday party and I must say, Nicole and Eileen did it up with a sweet pirate theme. A bunch of us dressed up like pirates (Or at least had a skull and crossbones somewhere on our person), there was pirate music, a beautiful pirate ship cake that Eileen made, an awesome activities table for the children attending the party, etc. It was really a good time for a child's birthday party.
All of these birthday celebrations just made me start thinking about what I want to do for my birthday in March (I love planning birthday parties, especially my own). I'm thinking about staying on Long Island this year and maybe gathering my friends to play paintball at this indoor place in West Babylon. I'll have to ask around and feel people out to see if it'll be possible. I hope my friends are down because I think it could be awesome.
