This weekend was Mr. Inky's Big Birthday Weekend. He's a whopping 37 years old now. I wish our ages were reversed, lol.
So aside from the whopping big TeeVee he got (one inch for every year), he also got 3 new work shirts, a Spock Sock Monkey kit, a couple new funny Bradley plates (I'll show you those later), the Mister also got an overnight stay at a local Victorian era Bed and Breakfast, The Garden Street Inn.
First we met another couple for lunch at the Splash Cafe, home of the best New England clam chowder outside of New England. Then it was off to check into the hotel where they had birthday balloons, a bottle of champagne and a german chocolate cake all ready for the birthday boy (I'm a dolt - forgot to take a picture of it!). We dropped off our stuff and headed out again for a 2 hour East Coast swing dance class. After that it was back to our hotel and time to clean up to go out to a blues show at the Vets Hall. I love it when those shows start up again from September to April!
To be honest, we were pooped and sore but we had a great time! Mr. Inky wore his new "Nashville Trash (it says that on the back yoke!!)" embroidered western shirt and I wore my vintage 50's squaw-style patio dress trimmed in silver rick rack. There's a petticoat under there too - good thing I wore nice black underpants, I hadn't realized how far that skirt would twirl up when we danced!
The next morning we woke up early for breakfast and headed home, tired, worn out and sore, but happy from a delightful weekend!
Hope yours was great too!
