Birthday Funday Part II


Kathryn knew little of what was planned for Birthday Funday.  She did know that after breakfast that we were going shopping for a bit then to get pedicures. 

We headed to Kohl's where I found that lovely yellow shirt on clearance for just $3.80 and Kathryn got some long sleeve white shirts.  Then we checked out Burlington Coat Factory and decided to take a tour through Ross just to see what they had.  We weren't terribly amused with either store but on the way out of Ross I caught a glimpse of a purple dress.  It turned out to be hideous but there was a gorgeous one next to it.  I'd sort of been looking for a dress to wear to our upcoming company dinner dance.  The dress I stumbled across at Ross was beautiful, was in my size and was only $11!!!  Hallelujah... it even fit!  Major score!

After our short shopping trip we went to get our pedicures.  Kathryn didn't know that our good friend Rhianna was joining us for our afternoon pampering or the dinner that was following.  When we arrived Kathryn was oblivious to Rhianna being there for several minutes until Rhianna went to stand right next to her.  It was a definite surprise!



We all enjoyed our relaxing pedicures.  Thankfully I'd snuck in a call to Rhianna asking her to bring us some snacks.  Like any good mom she came prepared with a weeks worth of snacks stuffed in her purse.



Once our toes were pretty we headed to dinner.  Kathryn knew we were going to dinner but didn't know where.  When we ended up at Paul Martin's American Bistro she was very happy.



We celebrated happy hour by eating appetizers and drinking wine.  Well those of us who drink wine drank wine.





Eventually the husbands joined us.



Rhianna, who was husbandless that night, didn't want to be left out of the "couples" photos and snapped this lovely self-portrait.


We enjoyed a fabulous dinner then, of course, birthday cake.  And in birthday tradition I got this picture of our birthday girl.


Birthday Funday was a huge success.  Fun was definitely had by all!
