Birthday in Charlotte.

As I mentioned previously, I took about a billion pictures while I was in Charlotte for my birthday week. It was the most wonderful time. My family, friends and sweet boyfriend went above and byond to ensure that it was a most memorable week. I seriously left feeling so refreshed and loved. Leaving was rather difficult after such an amazing time, as you can imagine. I wouldn't have changed a thing. We practically celebrated my birthday all week long. Kind of ridiculous, huh? My family is the absolute best and I miss them more with each passing day.

Here are just a few of many pictures.


















Sisters reunited. :)



















My sweet Mama, sisters and I at Five Guys. I've never had a better burger. Not even joking. Delicious.














Daddy's girls. He's really into his shades. Ha. Gosh, I love my Dad.














Hannah and I trying on ridiculously overpriced sunglasses at some ritzy store in the city.




















My love and I














On my actual birthday, we went and explored the city of Charlotte. It's seriously one of the cleanest and prettiest cities I've ever been to. I love the vibe there. So fun.














We had dinner at PF Changs. My favorite. Mom, Dad and I.















Ben and I while we waited for nearly an hour to be seated.




















"The Kids"















Ashton and I with our Volk Family. Love them all so much. They are so full of life and joy. We've practically grown up with them.



























Sweet Emily and I.




















Jonathan took some pictures of me in a wheat field behind their house on the day of my birthday party. We had so much fun doing them but I couldn't stop laughing for some reason. I always feel silly posing alone in pictures.





























Jonathan and I with one of the incredibly delicious and beautiful cakes he and my mom made.















There are still more pictures from my party I want to post. Coming soon! :)

Happy Thursday everyone!

P.S. I added some pictures to this post, if you're interested. Thanks!
