Happy Birthday to ME...I'm now 33

I'm almost sad to admit that as of Saturday, I am now 33.

However, my 30's have by far been the best years of my life,

so turning 33 has not set me into any kind of

My husband and I were able to get away for a night to a

very chic hotel in Dallas

and enjoyed a fabulous afternoon and evening of apple martini's and champagne

in a little cabana by the pool, did some shopping, and enjoyed a scrumptious dinner

of steak and shrimp tortilla soup before retreating back outdoors for some more cuddle time by the pool and outdoor fire pits.

All in all, an amazing birthday get-away and a much needed weekend of romance and relaxation.

... and isn't this just the coolest elevator door?

And though we may not admit it, we all secretly get a little rage of jealousy when we read on Facebook about someone's trip home and they have 'checked in' at Taco John's. Or what about when somebody is on a road trip and they post that they have stumbled upon a Taco John's and they are now enjoying something out of that brown paper bag and then us folks that live in Taco...
