First things first…
Friday night I decided I really needed a night to stay in so I watched movies, ate pizza and fell asleep before 10 π
Saturday I woke up before 7 because clearly Im a little kid and I was too excited to sleep.
I had lunch with the people I used to nanny for and then met my good friend Elyssa for our bday tradition of pre birthday party fun!
This year we went to Hawaiian Nail Bar and got pedicures while drinking Margs…fantastic!
Then I came home and chilled for a bit and got ready to go to my besties for our hot dinner date at Kellers drive in ….yummy!Bestie and I with our beers in the car
Adorbs!
Then her hubs dropped us off at the bar and the party got started….and here are pics of thatSo glad Ally came!
My best friends…we didnt dress alike on purpose
It was a mini DBM π
My friend Laura, her husband Scott and I
Thanks for introducing us Chris π
Id rather not go into the night in details but I fell out of the cab in my driveway and this is why Im never drinking again…that and the hangover that lasts for 2 days…Thanks Jello Injectors!
Thanks for all the tweets, texts, facebook posts and blog comments wishing me a happy birthday!
Love yall!

haha oh NEELY! You crack me up! I seriously was this way a few years ago..opps! and yes I swore off alcohol as well! It ended pretty much the same way you did π Glad you had a great time however pretty girl! you deserve it! have a wonderful monday! xo
I’m so glad you had all had a great time celebrating. I only really drink on my bday because I hate being hungover, it’s the worst! Hope your knee gets better because that def looks like it hurts!
10 points for the drunken knee injury. It’s not a good night unless someone ends up on the ground! π
Sounds like you had THE BEST weekend!! Great friends, yummy food, relaxing Neely time, and you looked cute too! I haaaate the major hangovers that come from drinking too much π I’ve had the “never drinking again” feeling WAY too many times!
hehe battle wounds make for the best stories though! I had one from that nightclub opening a few weeks ago but we won’t get into that story involving an ice sculpture that we turned into a shot luge….
moving on – happy late bday!
Great pictures – love that dress! π
Looks like you had fuuuuuun! I had similar wounds after my bachelorette party! π
LOVED all the birthday tweets from you & Amber. Sounds like a crazy night!
haha oh, i love it! A nice battle wound from a night out lol. At least it was only your knee, right? π
welcome to the shitshow.
I think the fact that you have a battle wound is a sign that your night was a success! π
Love the dress! And the nail salon with margs…genius!
Hope your hangover is finally subsiding π
Looks like a blast π
you looked so gorgeous girl for your bday night!!! Sorry for the boo boo, hope it feels better π sounds like you had a great birthday!!! xx
um that pedicure place looks AWESOME. booze and pampering? my favorite things!!
glad you had a good bday, lady!
sounds like you had a wonderful birthday! and falling out of a taxi only makes it more memorable.. but skinned knees hurt!! Hope it gets better ASAP!
Aaah the two day hangovers. I never had any of those when I was 21 but now have experienced a couple….no fun.
Looks like you had a blast!!
Margs & pedicures at the same time? Sounds like perfection. The knee injury, not so much! Glad you had a great time for your birthday, minus the knee and hangover!
Other than the hangover and banged up knee it sounds awesome! I need to find a nail place like that here in Sac!
gahh-I hate hangovers. They suck so bad. Glad you had a good time, but sucky that you have to nurse that wound… π
Never drinking again?? GH says you need to buckle up your chin strap and power through! I can’t be the only one drinking at the DBM!
I have always wondered about Hawaiian Nail Bar? Did you enjoy it. I mean I am kind of sold on the margaritas. Lets be honest!
We want details! π
Aside from the falling out of the cab thing…I hope you enjoyed your birthday π :).
You ladies are so adorable! I love that you’re wearing the Target dress, too! SO glad you had a great night!
Oh my gosh! Looks like you had a heck of a birthday! ha…ha…HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! Look forward to meeting you at the Dallas Blogger meetup π
Oh snap! You Bridget Jonesed it!
Glad you had a great birthday! I love Hawaiian Nail Bar and I live by Keller’s! Ha!
Damn girl! You really busted your knee. π
Love youuuu and Happy Belated Birthday again.
ohhh Neely, you are so cute!!
BUT, do you wanna make a bet?!? I bet you DO drink again at some point….it might just take a couple weeks or so π
Looks like you had a great birthday, despite the cab incident. Ouch!!
