Another Magical Birthday (A couple days early)

OK. So my birthday isn’t until tomorrow but can’t a girl celebrate it all weekend? HeHe.  As mentioned in my last post my Wonderful Hubby planned an incredible night out to celebrate my 43rd Birthday.  I’m back to share with the deetz of the night, it was Amazing!!  He loves getting all suited up for our date nights and I love getting all dressed up for him, so off we went downtown.  We started out with dinner at the Fabulous Artista and it did NOT disappoint!  It was great food, atmosphere, people watching and great service!  I left my camera behind so that I could truly enjoy the night but did manage to pull out my blackberry for a couple of snapshots of the dancers at the end of the show.

Let me share our menu, it was so Delicious!

Started off with some Chardonnay and some Pinot Griggio

Act 1 (Appetizers)

LOBSTER CHUPE

It was an awesome dinner! We walked over to the Wortham Center for our first Ballet and it also did not disappoint! We saw

LA FILLE MAL GARDÉE
("The Wayward Daughter")

We had box seats and I have to admit when we got to them I let out an eek, hehe.  My first time at the Ballet and box seats, totally awesome!  The performance was amazing, the orchestra amazing and it was not only funny but so not a snoozer, LOL.  We both enjoyed it and agreed that this type of night is going to be something we do again.

Here is a poor blackberry photo of the performers taking a bow.

Again I must say my hubby is so good to me and I am blessed!  Now off I go to make wedding tags for a tag swap I play a part in, then I have to finish editing wedding invite artwork to get an order to the printers for a wedding invite order.  Busy day here in Conroe!!  Have a great Sunday!!
