Monday, Monday…I hope yours is treating you well! What do you have on tap for this week? I am traveling for work the first couple days of this week and then Thursday is my birthday! I will be turning 28! What is your ideal birthday? For me, its the little things that really make the day special. My wishes for this year are as follows:
Lots of time with Josh:
My parents:
and my fur child, Frank:
I’d also like to go for a nice, long run. In terms of eats, I’m not a big cake person, but instead would love some Charleston’s Cafe parfait action:
and a pumpkin spiced misto from Starbucks (I heard they come out on Tuesday!!!!):
Other than that, not a whole lot I need :) I may treat myself to a new pair of Ryka cross trainers (my favorite!!), as the two pairs I currently have are pretty beat up from all of the teaching I’ve been doing lately:

And now, for the winner of the Galaxy Granola giveaway….
Stacey from Healthy Life!!! Congrats, send me an email (itzyskitchen at gmail dot com) with your address and I will get your prize sent to you. Thank you again to Galaxy Granola and Fruit Not Fat for the giveaway.

Aw - looks like you have lovely plans for the big day! :) Hope you get your new shoes - those are cute!

I love those shoes, I think treating yourself to something nice on your birthday is so important. I always try to buy myself something practical, yet fun!
Happy Early Birthday!! I love birthdays that are simple but special and spent with my family and closest friends - going out for a nice dinner and going somewhere or doing something fun are my favorites.
28! Girl, you seriously look about 23! :) I'm turning 28 in november and I don't wanna!
Happy early birthday! I am 28 and having a great year. I am sure you will too! Wish we could celebrate together! Have so much fun!
Happy birthday in advance! I hope it's everything you want it to be! :)
I want to wish you a Happy Birthday. I will be out of town as well so I'm sending you some early birthday wishes.
Hope your day will be extra special.
Thanks for the emails and recommendations on wedding resorts.
Happy Early Birthday!! :) Love your birthday wishes!!!!! :)
Happy (almost) Birthday! Have fun celebrating :)
How great to look forward to your birthday after work travel! I hope you spend the day exactly as you please!
I'm not a huge cake person either, but I AM a big pie person. Bring on the apple pie when mine comes around in January. Although that parfait looks so. darn. good. I wish I could sample the real deal.
Happy birthday, fellow Virgo!
I'm not a cake person either. I'm into pie...obviously, apple pie.
For you, I'd make you an apple pie parfait. :)
Oh an almost birthday - how exciting! Family time is one of the nicest parts of any celebration I think :).
I wish for those things for you, too! Love your birthday list.
Have a great 28, Erica!
Hey girl! So excited for your bday - yayyy! I'm 28 and I'll tell ya it's been a great year, I wish you all the same & more :)
As sad as I am to see summer fade away, I am so pumped about all the pumpkin goodies coming our way for fall!
Awww Erica!!! I had no idea your birthday was this week! :) That's so exciting! :) Happy early birthday, but you know I'll be wishing you this again.
Where are you traveling to?
Happy almost birthday!! My 28 is at the end of September.. Eeek! I love birthdays with the people I love full or relaxation and good food!
Sues
Oh I love the pumpkin spice, but that kind of makes me sad that they are coming out so early!
Happy almost birthday!
Cute photo of you and Josh! Enjoy your birthday week!!
28 is nothing! You don't look a day over 24 (that is where I decided I will stay ;)
I hope you have a great week and yes, I heard that the pumpkin spice is already out! Well it is here in Vancouver :)
xxoo
My ideal birthday would be very similar--plenty of time with Seth, family, and pups:)
Happy Birthday, girl!! I feel like I tell you this all the time, but your dog is absolutely adorable. Little snuggle bug.. :)
My birthday was on the 23rd, so are you a Leo too? Yeah, I'm into zodiac signs. I'll admit it.
Ryka's are fantastic! ((hi Frank))
Happy birthday! Let's get this parr-tay started!
It's your birthday???!! AWESOME. I hope it's wonderful, and everything you wish it will be.
I hope you took the day off from teaching! :)
HAPPPY ALMOST you spring chicken.
I love to celebrate love on my birthday.
the child
the husband
just hang as a family.
Ooo happy early birthday! I hope all your birthday wishes for the coming year come true & more!! !=)
Happy Birthday!!! (Today's mine!!!!) And alas, it's not the most perfect birthday ever (dang tuesday) but I'm going to make it the best it can be.
In a perfect world - I'd spend the morning curled up watching my morning talk shows with lots of coffee followed by either a day at the beach, or a winery or just a fabulous dinner out.
Happy early birthday!!
Yay! Your birthday is almost here! We are going to celebrate for sure. Pumpkin coffee and the fabulous Charleston Cafe parfaits are a perfect way to celebrate.
yay, happy upcoming 28th! it sounds like you have some wonderful birthday plans and gifts coming your way!
I think those birthday wishes are totally doable! Happy early b-day! ;)
Happy early birthday!
I wonder if they can put a candle in your parfait. That would be so cute!
Awww happy birthday for this week! I love how family orientated you are. So sweet. And how obsessed you are with that granola parfait!! Ha.
Have a wonderful, wonderful day. x
Happy Birthday Erica!! Hope you have a fabulous celebration!! Thursday is my bday too and I'm also eyeing some new workout gear :)
