Here's a recap of my day:
First of all, alarms should be illegal on your birthday, but I made a commitment to Jessica to meet for Day 2 of Couch to 5K so that is exactly what I did : ) I'm so proud I got up & exercised on my birthday when all I really wanted to do was sleep in!
After my work out Mom took me to breakfast for Banana Pecan Pancakes...yummy! My stack wasn't quite this big, but it sure was delicious : )

Following breakfast, I headed off for an hour massage. These are a rare occurrence and I savor every second. I felt absolutely relaxed and calm the rest of the day...they really should become a monthly ritual!
{source}Since I had most of the day off and some time to kill before working dinner at the cafe I snuggled up on the couch to watch a movie. I was trying to keep with the calming effects of the day : ) I LOVE all Nicholas Sparks' books so naturally I've been wanting to see The Last Song since it was in theaters. Lucky for me the dvd was just released on Tuesday so I picked it up at Redbox. Overall it was a cute movie, but nothing compared to the book!
{source}Luckily I did have most of the day off, but I still had to work dinner for a few hours. No biggie though, I was still able to enjoy my birthday and I ducked out a little early to grab dinner with Kenny. Yes I know I work at a restaurant, but I had a total craving for fish tacos and I just had to have them! We drove out to On The Border and I order the Dos XX Fish Tacos...OMG, yum! I can't wait for my leftovers tonight!
{source}Best of all? Spending time with family and friends!
It was a fabulous way to spend my 26th birthday and thank each and every person who made my day extra special! Until next year...
