May 10th was my 26th birthday! I was actually excited to turn a year older this year as opposed to last year when I felt great trepidation in turning 25. Today started with my mom calling to wake me up to wish me a happy birthday (well she probably didn't plan on waking me but there are not many days I'm awake at 9am!). After facing the fact that I should get up and get my day started, Pati and I went to Solana Beach and walked around the shops in the "design district". At the end of the shops we grabbed sandwiches and headed to La Jolla Shores to soak up some sun on the beach!
Despite a little wind, lying on the beach was quite wonderful for this early in the beach season! Pati and I dug right into our sandwiches but as Pati went to take her second bite a fiesty, ballsy I may add, Seagull swooped in from behind and grabbed Pati's entire sandwich from her hands. He didn't even drop any part of the sandwich as he flew away. How dare take food from a pregnant woman. The seagull and his friends then started to hover over us and hang around our towels waiting for another opportunity to get more food, but lucky for us we didn't give them another opportunity and were able to split the rest of my sandwich.
The seagull himself!
After we were sunned out, we headed home to get ready for dinner. For dinner Pati, Natalie, Stephanie, and myself went to Jakes in Del Mar. We all enjoyed a beautiful sunset over crashing waves, fresh seafood dinners, and a yummy strawberry shortcake cake!
Thank you to all those who helped make my birthday as special as it was whether it was spending time with me, calling, sending a card (or gift!), texting me or sending a facebook message! I love you all amd am happy to have you in my life!
