Irreverent & Beautiful Friends Make for the Best Birthday EVER

Sooooooo, I wanted to post these on facebook but I can't at this very moment. So blog it tis. I had the best birthday weekend ever. First, we celebrated the birth of the lovely Haley Strode at a diner in the LES with cheese fries and dessert, obvs. Then we did a double bday get together at Loreley Biergartenon/Dark Room on Sat. Lots of lovlies came and lots of beer and whiskey was had. On Monday, which was my official day of birth, the whole gang spent the day together. First, we had amazing breakfast at Balthazar, followed by shopping and galavanting in SoHo. That night we all met up at Bryant, drank wine, ate salad and watched the terrible/amazing Carousel. We laughed and yelled and were down right irreverent through the whole thing, obvs. It was the perfect day with the perfect people. Obviously I documented.

"the sweetest winds, they blow across the South"

I went home for ten days a couple of weeks ago. It was one of my best trips home. I spent a lot of time with my family and driving around the country. I miss the South so much. The land, the people, the air....everything. This trip I really got to hang around the town my parents live in and explore the people and places that make it such a great little town. It's not much. Probably nothing at all to people up here but I just couldn't get enough of it. There is so much character and expression in every home on every corner and in the faces of the people who live there. Southerners are so welcoming and open. It was amazing how they would just let me in their homes and lives to take their photos. I really met some amazing and beautiful people.
