Oh Happy Day!

My birthday is always one of my absolute favorite days of the year. I love getting together with friends and family and celebrating the day I was born (I also love presents). This year was such a great time because it was a low-key time to visit with friends. We hadn't all been together for about a month and it was nice to reconnect. Here are a few pictures from that night :) Happy Birthday to me!
