Birthday Times

Monday was my birthday.

And my Dad’s birthday.

And Easter Monday

 

It was fun :).

Birthday People

I got a new camera for my birthday so have been pretty snap happy ever since :). It was from my parents and is super cute and small –it’s the size of a stack of credit cards.

This one got me the most amazing birthday present ever!!!

We’re going on holiday! Yayyy! I am so spoilt! Best bf ever xxxxxxxx

It’s not booked yet but it’s going to be sunny and sandy and swimmy!!

I can not wait! The plan is to go as soon as I’m back from Edinburgh. It’s so nice to have something to look forward to now!

 

Birthday Cake

I actually had a major disaster with the birthday cake. Mum had made me a delicious looking cheesecake and once it had cooled I went to get it out the fridge to take the baking paper off…

But I dropped it!!

The cake tin it was baked in had a loose bottom and I managed to completely flip it when I picked it up.

Total disaster!!!

Mum had to run over with a tray to catch the pudding of mess from my hands. I was super sad :(. We put the remnants in a bowl and Mum had the amazing idea of topping it with meringue.

It wasn’t the cake we planned but it was still super delicious…and we covered it in strawberries to hide the mess.

My birthday day was spent at home with some family, friends and nibbles. Then in the evening Ryan, Mel, Jamie and I went to The Spice Merchant’s for dinner.

Ryan had the Fear

But We Were Going Extremely Fast

The Spice Merchants was super tasty as always.

There Were Even Party Hats

My Delicious Meal

Birthdays really are my favourite days :D.

It was really nice to be home this year instead of on the other side of the world. Especially as I have the same birthday is my Dad, It was weird being away from him last year.

 

22 Now!

I’m over the hill ;)

Ryan’s Birthday

It turns out I did do something fun.

It just seems so long ago already I forgot.

Ryan had his birthday on the 19th January. So I went down to visit Wales (and him) for the weekend.

Birthday Boy

We had the most amazing Thai meal with his family. We had a set menu so we got loads of things. There were platters of starters and I think 6 mains. That didn’t mean we had 6 main meals each like I initially thought –they were to share. I tried everything and then managed to wangle my own personal bowl of chicken curry :D. There was another bowl as well that didn’t get finished so I like to think no one minded/noticed. I was super happy about it though and felt like quite the sneak!

We even got given hot towels to wipe our hands- like on Singapore airlines (the best part of flying). They made me happy :D.

Then on Saturday we stayed in a posh hotel in Cardiff that Ryan’s parents had got us for his birthday. It was super posh, there was a spa and everything. It was quite the treat. We then met Ryan’s friends for dinner at Prezzo (Yay for Tesco vouchers) and then had multiple 2 for 1 cocktails. I’m a big fan of 2 for 1 as they do not exist in Scotland. Now if I see one I just have to have it as I don’t know when my next opportunity will be! I drank tequila sunrises which remind me of Australia and my fave Sayo! Yummiest drink ever.

We’ve clearly had a few…

Sunday we swam and jacuzzied in the spa before I had to head home to Edinburgh. It was a super lovely weekend though :D.
