Okay, I'm officially 28 years old! Wow. It's hard to believe in two years I'll be 30. However, for now I'll just focus on being 28.
The best thing that happened during my year of being 27 is that I got married! I think that will go down as being one of the best years of my life. 28 has a lot to live up to.
A little walk down memory lane...
Since I have a summer birthday I never had school on my birthday. Then, once I entered into the real world I had things thing called work I had to go to on my birthday...yuck! Ha. I have been very fortunate though to be able to take it off. So I will not be working tomorrow and instead I'll be spending the afternoon with my mom and then it's off to dinner with Mr. H! I'm SO excited!!!! I love celebrating my birthday. Even though I'm getting older, I still enjoy it.
It's summer (although it's quickly coming to an end), which means it's the perfect time for summer cocktails and cold drinks. I have a Pinterest board full of yummy drinks and I've never made any. That was a goal of mine this summer, but hasn't happened yet.
Here are two yummy ones I must try and I used them as inspiration in creating these two fabulous outfits.

*Side note: I wanted to get this dress from H&M to wear for my birthday dinner, but it was sold out in stores and now no longer available to view online. It was adorable!

The opening ceremony of the 2012 Olympics start tonight! I LOVE the Olympics and am so excited for them to begin. Mr. H and I will be having my birthday dinner so we'll have to dvr the ceremony. I'm sure it's going to be awesome. Michael Phelps starts it off Saturday morning...can't wait!
Chris and Laura are great friends of ours and are getting married TOMORROW! We can't wait to celebrate with this super sweet couple. It's been so fun to have all of our friends join us in the married couples club. Congrats friends!!!
I'm linking up with the lovely {av} over at long distance loving for my Friday's Fancies. Check out some of the other great outfits fellow bloggers have put together. It's one of my favorite parts of the link up.
