Pool Party Fun & Things That Make Me Happy

Just a quick Thoughtless Thursday for me today. I recently got the pics from my friend S from her daughter's 7th bday. It was the cutest party and I think our pics turned out awesome! Without further ado: Courtney (my BFF), lil J, S, and me:

I loved Kelly's question this week at Top 3 Thursdays! She wants to know our top three places to eat. I am getting better about eating at home and actually preparing my own meals, but I still LOVE going out to eat! I have a lot of favorite places to eat so I decided to stick with the casual/take-out places I frequent. These are delicious! At Pei Wei I usually get the spicy chicken salad and crab wontons. At Rubio's it is usually the gourmet tacos or shrimp burrito. Jason's deli is just one of the many sandwich places I am obsessed with! I love the Cali club sandwich, pot roast sandwich, and the soups!

St Patty's Day Fail & Thoughtless Thurs

Soo... I was hoping to share some fun stories of green beer and Irish pubs, but as you may be able to tell from the title of this post... all did not go according to plan! I went over to my BFF's after work so we could get ready in our all our green glory together. After a few stops to pick up some friends, we headed to the pub. After a run in with officer friendly (minus the friendly part) about parking, we proceeded to the door. (This may be confusing to non-AZ people because I don't think many other states do this with their licenses... so sorry if I lose you at this point...)The bouncer looks at my ID and tells me he cannot accept it. I seriously thought he was kidding. I have been using this ID to get into bars for years! It is from the DMV, it is real, WTF? In AZ when you're underage your ID is vertical, then when you turn 21 you can get a normal horizontal one. I never bothered to get the new one, because I never had any problems with it! I guess they can have their liquor license revoked for accepting it! The bouncer was actually pretty nice about this, but it still totally sucked! So, instead of new cute pics, I am forced to share these oldies from St. Patty's day in Atlanta with my pharmacy friends.I ended up going out to eat with my sweetie, so I still had a pretty good night! Hope everyone else's celebration went better than mine! Check out the other fun pics the other gals post over at Katie F's blog and you have to see her awesome Europe pics! Is it weird to already miss Christmas in March? ( :

I also am playing along with Top 3 Thursday at Keeping Up With Kelly. I love spring! I would have to say my three favorite things about spring are finally getting to take the boat out, spring training games, and camping! Head on over and play along too!

XOXO-
