Celebrations

Tom and I both have birthdays in July, and then one week after my birthday is our anniversary. Which is tomorrow, one year and going strong! It's a lot of partying to cram into one month, but we manage.

We went to Ohio to celebrate Tom's birthday and stayed with Addie and Jamey in Columbus. Addie was such a good hostess all weekend long! (Chocolate cake from Costco, need I say more?) We drove to Cinicinnati for the Bunbury Music Festival and watched the Imagine Dragons and Weezer. Tom knew the Imagine Dragons from when he lived in Vegas, and they were really cool even though it rained on us the whole time. At the Weezer concert it was all fun and games until My Name is Jonas and then everyone went nuts! I'm pretty sure I would have been knocked out by crowd surfers and trampled if Tom wasn't there to protect me. But we had a blast! 

It was fun to pretend we had a new car for a few days

So for my birthday, Tom asked me what I wanted to do and I knew right away - the zoo! We saw the new cute little cheetah cubs who are going to be named after the fastest American woman and man at the Olympics this year. We saw some pandas who were just reclining in their little bamboo cages chewing on bamboo all day long. I decided if Tom was an animal, he'd be a panda. I also got to see my favorite animal of all, the otters! They are sooo funny and playful and I want one. After the zoo we ate at Roti and had cupcakes from Georgetown cupcake. Annnnd, as if that wasn't enough, we ate at Cheesecake Factory on Monday.  They must have known it was my birthday, because it was also get cheesecake half-off day :)

Tom got me popcorn popper!! You have know idea how excited I was.
