As you probably know by now, Sunday was my birthday! The big 2-9…if you follow me on snapchat (@alexisroch) or instagram, you saw a little bit of my birthday weekend.
It was very low key, but I really enjoyed it! Today is my husband’s 29th birthday too. He is at work, but tomorrow we plan on having a lunch date and seeing a movie.
Anyways, here are my Friday Favorites – Happy Birthday edition!
Saturday, we took a drive to my parents house to have lunch and celebrate mine and my husband’s birthday. It is always like a relaxing getaway when we go to their house. They live in a smaller country town and have land with cows, a lake, and it is always so peaceful.
It was such a beautiful day too! In the 70s, no wind, and sunshine. A complete 180 from last years birthday which was freezing with snow and ice!
My husband and I walked around the land just talking and taking pictures. Then we all went to lunch together. Sunday, my husband took me to my favorite place for breakfast, Denny’s! I love diners, but Denny’s is my favorite 🙂
My husband had the funniest/cutest card sitting out for me on Sunday morning…Well, it was from Ruger too 🙂 He traced Ruger’s paw on the card which was very difficult as you can see lol! 🙂
He also got me a blackberry bush with some bluebonnet and pumpkin seeds which I can’t wait to plant!
We ended the day with a long walk around the neighborhood and spent some time swinging on the porch swing. It is always nice to enjoy a warm birthday when you are born in February! Although it has been chillier this week, it looks like my hubby’s birthday weekend will be nice too!
What are your plans this weekend? Are you ready for spring too?
I will be snapping the weekend away so follow along (username :: alexisroch) 🙂 Happy Weekend!

Sounds like a nice weekend. I wish it was in the 70s where I live now. I have a January birthday so I sympathize with the cold temps. Love that card! So cute 🙂

Happy Birthday Weekend, Alexis! Please tell your hubby Happy Birthday for me! Love the tracing of Ruger’s paw; I’ve tried to do that w/Ann, it is tricky. What movie will you see – romantic comedy, action-packed, animated? Have a fabulous weekend… P.S. Do you celebrate half birthdays in August?!
Alexis says
Thanks Laurie! I will tell him 🙂 I am betting he will want something action or comedy. I love them all so I usually let him pick! Have a great weekend!!! I haven’t celebrated a half-birthday before…but I should start because why not?? lol My brother’s birthday is in August too!
Kate @ Green Fashionista says

Thanks Stephanie! I am not sure how I feel about being 29…I feel like it is just going by too fast! I hope you enjoy your last few months in your 20s!!!
Holly @ While I'm Waiting... says
Happy belated birthday! Don’t worry about turning another year older – it just keeps getting better and better! 😉
Alexis says
Thanks Holly! I do like myself better as I get older…it’s just hard to think about not being in my 20s lol, but I feel better about it!
