Last Saturday I turned 21 years old say WHAAAT! I feel like I'm supposed to be a proper adult now and act mature at all times. If that's the case I am failing miserably..
I was super lucky to have my birthday fall on a Saturday so I got to have an amazing birthday weekend with my closest friends and family. Even Saturdays weather treated me nicely! I can honestly say I had the best birthday weekend I've had in years and I'm still buzzing and feel so lucky to have the people I have in my life. That sounds WAY too cheesy for my usual taste but that's just how damn happy I'm feeling right now!
My birthday weekend started with a family meal on Friday night. We went to Ask and I had pizza (what else do I ever eat) and then I got the embarrassing minute of siting awkwardly whilst everyone sung happy birthday to me ha! The cake was delicious, good job Waitrose.
Despite being a bit cloudy, the weather on my birthday was lovely! It was sunny and warm all day which made for perfect BBQ weather! My closest friends, my parents and my sister joined me for burgers, drinks and a dip in the paddling pool. By dip I mean being thrown in face first..
This picture cracks me up, we all ended up fully clothed in the paddling pool!
Sarah finally made friends with Maggie!
Fast forward 3 hours and we're ready to head into town. I got this dress in the River Island sale for £20 down from £42 and the heels were only £14 from Primark, yay for bargains!
Sarah got her dress from the Miss Selfridge sale for (I think!) £20
I wore MAC Soar and Brave, such a perfect combo ahhh I love it!
This is my best friend Sophie, we realised we've been friends for ten years! Wow time flies!
I haven't actually asked Sophie where her outfit is from but I make the assumption it is all from New Look as this girl literally has their whole stock in her wardrobe!
My night out got cut a bit short thanks to my sore rib (thanks ride at chessington) so I ended up going home at about 1:30 instead of 4am but to put it bluntly, I couldn't care less. After the most perfect day I was quite happy to go home and snuggle up in bed! (Granny over here)
Sunday was spent just as a Sunday should be, in bed. It's honestly quite bad how much I enjoy being a sloth, but it was my birthday and I'll sloth if I want to. We woke up at 12:15.. I spent the day with my friend and my kitten, snuggled up in bed watching Despicable Me 2 on repeat and eating Doritos and chocolate. And it was perfect.
This post was going to include my gifts but it's ended up rather a long, picture heavy post so I'll be showing you those in my next post! I'm still buzzing with happiness, even if I am now back to work. I'm so grateful to have had such a perfect weekend and I hope you've enjoyed reading about what I got up to! Also a massive thanks to those of you that wished me a happy birthday!
