18th Birthday Recap!

Merry Christmas Eve everyone! This year has flown by so fast and I can't believe it's about to be 2019! Last week I celebrated my 18th birthday which I think is absolutely crazy so today I'm sharing some pictures from my fun night.

My family, McCray and I celebrated my birthday with a dinner at Benihana, a hibachi restaurant in Dallas and had so much fun watching the chef cook our food in the middle of our table.

We started the night with a dance party in the car on the way to the restaurant. The traffic was insane so I was able to get in some good quality dance moves.

The kids menus at Benihana can be folded so you can wear them as a hat and I was able to talk McCray into wearing one and having fun with me. Being the cute best friend that she is, McCray wrote "birthday girl" on my hat in her cute cursive hand writing.

Birthday dinner = fun birthday drinks!

Our chef was hilarious! He was telling jokes while making our food and had us laughing so hard we were crying, he was definitely a great chef to have when celebrating your birthday!

For my birthday they brought out ice cream with a candle in it and sang to me in Japanese. I couldn't eat the ice cream but McCray said it was great.

We celebrated my birthday Tuesday night because my birthday fell on a Wednesday this year and I didn't want to miss church. When I got to school Wednesday morning McCray surprised me with a venti peppermint hot chocolate and once again, in her cute cursive handwriting wrote "birthday girl." She also made sure that the lady at Starbucks spelled my name right.

On Wednesday before church I picked up my little sister and a family friend who we will call Red (she has a blog that you can read here) and Red came out to the car with a big present and a balloon for me, it was so sweet!

I had an amazing time celebrating my 18th birthday this year!

Luv ya!

My 21st Birthday + XOXO Dining Room Review

Last month I celebrated my 21st birthday at one of the most Instagramable restaurants in Dallas! If I were a restaurant, I'd definitely be XOXO Dining Room. From the pink building, to the picture-worthy garden, to the DJ's music selection, it could not have been a more perfect place to celebrate my 21st.

TJ Maxx Dressing Room Try On!

I did some more shopping but honestly are you surprised? My Step mom, MB and I went to TJ Maxx in search of some Lilly Pulitzer at a good price and I hit the jackpot! And I took pictures in the dressing room to do another try on!

5 Tips for Buying Lilly Pulitzer on a Budget

Within the last couple of years I have really fallen in love with Lilly Pulitzer. I love the fun bright prints and how I stand out when I wear them. My Lilly collection isn't very big but I would like to think I own a good amount. I'm always asked how I can afford so many Lilly Pulitzer items and the truth is, I can't. If I were to buy all of my Lilly items in a Lilly Pulitzer store I would be so broke. By now you should know I'm all about finding great deals and that's my secret to affording Lilly. Here are my top 5 tips on getting Lilly Pulitzer items at a great price!

A Day at Crocodile Encounters

In my Spring Break Recap post I mentioned going to a petting zoo and that I wanted to do a post about the adventure and that's what I am sharing with you today! The petting zoo was actually an alligator petting zoo that had other animals as well. The place was called Crocodile Encounters and it's near Houston. I must say that it was a bit sketchy (it was in some one's backyard!!) and I was a little bit nervous going in but it was a ton of fun! When you get there you enter through the gift shop where you can buy crocodile food that you can throw to them and lettuce you can feed to all of the other animals so we bought some to feed the animals. We didn't spend but a couple of hours there because this pale girl was quickly burning and I didn't want to be the color of a lobster the next day. And don't forget you can click on the pictures to view them larger!

It rained the entire Memorial Day Weekend here so I spent the long weekend watching movies. Audrey Hepburn is my favorite actress so I spent the weekend binge watching classic movies starring Audrey. I came across five of her movies on Amazon that are free to watch with Prime and thought I would share in case you're in need of a rainy day movie too.
