Indulgent Lynn

Yay, so “Healthy Lynn” has temporarily turned into “Indulgent Lynn.”  The key word being temporary.  We’ve had a lot of celebrations lately, full of rich, decadent food.  It has left me feeling rather whale-like. ;)  But such is life, I shall resume the oats and spinach this week and the scale will once again be happy.

Today we gathered to celebrate Tasha’s 30th Birthday with a delicious brunch at the Westin.  I love going here, brings back so many good memories from our wedding day!

Tash, Me, Ang & Jaime after 3 trips to the buffet. Pleasantly full.  Stuffed.

Last Round:  Dessert – I had a few bites of several desserts.  This tart was my fav out of them all.

Time for the birthday girl to open her gifts. Tea, cheese & books! 😉

Our waiter was really nice.  He made Tasha a napkin rose!  Took him all of 20 seconds.   This is about half way through the process.

And as always, the service was impeccable. Drinks refilled and tables reset when we were up at the buffet. 

After our huge meal we took a short tour of the hotel.  Went upstairs and I showed the girls where our marriage ceremony was held.  Then stopped to pose for some pics.

This weekend was so much fun and went by way too fast.  Thanks for all the great times girls.  Happy Birthday Tash!!
