I am 28!

Yesterday was my 28th birthday. I couldn't decide what I wanted to do, and almost stayed home but my best friend called me up and we went out to breakfast! It was fun. Here is a silly picture she took of me, and that cute golden retriever puppy!

 We went to Fido in Hillsboro village. I had pancakes, and a soy chai latte! It was awesome.

Crystal and I have been best friends for a long time. I'm so happy she was off on my birthday so we could hang out all day.

 After breakfast we went to my appointment at Flash City! My artist, Jason St. Clair was super sweet and came in to the shop early so I could get tattooed on my birthday.

We finished up my half sleeve with some clouds and lightening. He had hoped to start on my Audrey 2 piece, but we ran out of time! Oh well, I'll be back soon to work on it. It is nice to be done with that arm! I've been working on it for two years!

 By the time my appointment was done Travis was off work and we met up and went to the Nashville Zoo! His parents gift me a membership every year, I love it! It's really close to my house (like within 2 miles) and I really should go more!

 Sometimes I can hear these monkeys calling from my backyard!

 Zoo juice!

We have lots of pictures of us with these meerkats over the years. I need to put them all in one place sometime and see how much we've changed. Travis and I actually went on our first date to the Nashville zoo! And Crystal came! Ha!

 Can you believe there are so many pictures of me in this post? That never happens! And can you believe how bad I need a haircut!

 Cute green lizard.

 Sea horses are so weird. They seem like they are a mistake, the way the flop around!

 The tapirs were so cute! Look at that silly nose!

 My two bffs.

 The flamingos were so pretty.

Even when they were fighting.

After the zoo we drove south and grilled out at my parent's house. It was low key, but a really great birthday.
