My 30th Birthday was this past Sunday and I had a very fun filled, awesome weekend with my honey, friends and fam. Warning: This post is loaded with tons of pictures so enjoy! 🙂 On Friday Night I had a dinner at Johnny Utahs. The food was pretty decent and the drinks were good, but I punked out and never got on the mechanical bull. Oh well next time lol

On Saturday Morning I begged my honey to let me open my birthday gift early. I got a new DSLR camera, he bought me the Canon EOS Rebel T4i with a 50mm lens. I’ve been having a ball taking pics with the new camera, it takes great pics. I will be picking up 2 more lenses in the next few weeks, probably 18-55 and 55-250, I am still researching.
Heading out…
With my cousin Mo…
I had a birthday dinner at Buddakan NYC. The food and drinks were awesome and the decor was just fabulous!
Chilling at the bar with Teema. Here’s some of the dishes that we enjoyed…
Edamame Dumpling… It was… different than what I expected
King Crab & Scallops Stew
Seafood Chow Mein
Chocolate Ganache with Coffee Ice Cream
My Line Sister Nikki
TFNC Scalloped Sequin Dress (similar) | Boutique 9 Orra Pumps
We were supposed to go clubbing after dinner but it was really late and everyone was tired so my honey and I went out to a spot for a little bit for some drinks and dancing. On Sunday my actual birthday, we went to breakfast, then to Spa Castle for some pampering and relaxing. We got the Aromatherapy Massages and hung out in the different Saunas and pools.
I did a switcharoo in the locker room…Palazzo Pants!

I finished off the evening with dinner at Joe’s Crab Shack with my little man and my honey.

Enjoyed every bit of my 30th birthday weekend!

What an amazing birthday! And I love that Canon beautiful pics and that lens is amazing. Your choices for lenses are great those are great standard lenses to have for sure! Check out B&H Photo for discounts and refurbished lenses and other cool accessories. Happy 30th birthday beautiful!
Thank you so much, Merli. That’s exactly where I’ve been looking as that’s where my BF bought the camera and a lot of places don’t sell the 18-55 outside of a kit. I am going to have a ball with my new camera! xoxo
You look absolutely stunning. 30 years old looks great on you. I was just telling my boss recently that women in their 30’s are outshining us women in our 20’s. LOL I guess it’s a secret.
Thank you so much Daja. I hope that my genes continue to be good to me 😉 lol
