On Thursday night, I organized a surprise birthday dinner for Brandon at Taco Boy on Folly Beach. I told him the week before that we could eat anywhere in Charleston & do anything he'd like. Without hesitation, he asked me to ride bikes with him on the beach, then take him to Taco Boy. He's easy to please! While Brandon was thinking it was going to be just us two, we had about 15 people, including his parents, waiting for us to arrive at the restaurant. He was so surprised to see almost all of his very closest friends at the table -especially his parents! I can't believe I was able to keep it a secret. Here are some photos...
The whole gang...
My dear friends Ryan & Cody!
Brandon and his parents. Doesn't he look so much like his dad?
Brandon and I with my cousins Chrissy & Caroline -and Chrissy's boyfriend, Adam!
Brandon's cheeks are so funny in this pic!
We headed home on Friday to Beaufort and Ridgeland for Easter weekend. I really don't have any photos from the weekend, but this is what I wore on Friday before leaving Charleston:
(Old J. Crew top, old F21 necklace, & old GAP jeans!)
Mom made these cute cinnamon rolls on Easter morning!
Essie's "Sugar Daddy" was in my Easter basket. It's apparently an award winning polish... and I can see why. It leaves your nails looking clean, feminine and classic. It has the perfect hint of pinky cream. Definitely a new favorite for when I'm tired of my bright nails! I painted them immediately when I pulled the polish out of the basket & didn't use a top coat ...pretty, no?
Brandon and I got back to Charleston first thing Monday morning and jetted back to work. It's always nice to end of the day and top off the weekend with a cruise down the Intracoastal on the boat!
Hope you all had a happy Easter!

ReplyDeleteWhat a nice surprise for his birthday! I'm horrible at keeping secrets - especially when it's something I'm excited about like a party or a present I can't wait to give. I guess I'm still a little kid!
ReplyDeleteQuestion - I'm going down to Beaufort/Parris Island next week - any good restaurants we need to go to(I'll be with my family)?
