a birthday ride!

hey everyone! hope you all had a great weekend! to kick start the weekend the mister and i headed out to the east bay bike party, which was birthday themed! we went and picked up a few supplies for the ride like....


some gold star garland for gilbert and some gold ribbon for my handle bars...we kept it pretty classy...



there weren't any birthday hats that sparked my fancy so instead i wore my gold star headband that my amazing sister in law made me...which ended up being perfect because i matched gilbert :D

this picture makes me giggle
oh...and don't forget the horns too! those were extra fun to blow through the silent streets of oakland/berkely!

i soo wish this picture came out better but it will do
 the ride was really nice and it was well equipped with many party festive people..one girl dressed up as a present, while others had balloons and ribbon tied to their bikes...and there was a man wearing a horse custom...of course!!!!


and then this guy who is AWESOME and hitched a small webber on the back of his bike and cooked some chicken...BRILLIANT!!!!!


it was a great way to kick off my birthday week! thanks east bay bike party!

    I love that star headband! Again, it looks like such a fun time. I love Berkley. My sister took me to an awesome restaurant there once. Next time I'm down I better make her take me again!

    it sounds awesome, pleased you had such a fun weekend sweetie. LOVE your stars, that's one talented & lovely sister-in-law. I'm imagining how that girl dressed as a present managed to cycle - of course I'm imagining a box :D ha ha!
    And I must tell Hubby about the Webber on the back of the bike - he's BBQ mad, though that's a new one! xox
