Happy 24th Birthday to ME!

I cannot believe that today is my 24th Birthday and that its already pretty much half way through September and I am off to Disneyland Paris on Saturday for my long awaited day trip.

I have been absolutely spoilt by my partner, family and best friends this year and I am so grateful! I was lucky enough to get my birthday off from work as we are a small company so took a long 4 day weekend.

This morning I woke up to presents and cards from everyone before we headed out for breakfast this was just my mum, Liz and my two sisters as Joel and my brother were working. We went to this place called Venue 35 which is a family run business and we all had a fry up a full monty in fact it was amazing one of the best fry ups I've had.

After breakfast I headed in to town to go shopping and spend some of my money and managed to get some black jeggings, new black heeled winter boots and 3 jumpers. My favourite by far was this Minnie/Mickey jumper.

Of my partner Joel he got me the Lumiere ornament to go with my Cogsworth clock and Chip mug along with some more Katy Perry's Mad Potion perfume and some of the best oreos ever Birthday Cake flavour.

These are the best tasting things ever! Who needs cake anyways ;)

 How cute do they look together? Chip doesn't quite fit in that DVD slot

I originally wasn't too excited when I saw she was releasing this as the bottle looked like it was childish but actually I am glad I got some more because it smells amazing!

My mum and Liz got me a copy of the rare Pocahontas art work book from 1995, after a seller let us down I was so over the moon when she managed to get me a copy that was in such amazing condition. Along with this she gave me money, a beautiful Cheshire Cat mug which is the original Lewis Carol version and a giant gummy fried egg haha!

 This book is something I thought I would never own and I am so glad to finally have a copy it is in incredible condition and just full of beautiful photos and drawings.

 This is the most brilliant thing I have been given and tastes amazing actually as I wasn't sure if it would!

Such a nice surprise present from my mum from the Alice and Wonderland Collection at Whittard's and the fact that its classic Alice and not the Disney version makes it even better.

My best friend Emma managed to get me the new first ever Pocahontas Disney tradition that came out earlier this week and she is just beautiful! I hope Jim releases more!

Samiee my best friend also got me tickets to see Breakfast At Tiffany's on Stage in my local hometown theatre and I am so excited as I LOVE the movie and the book so it will be great to see it on stage! She also showed up with the most kawaii Hello Kitty balloon and I've never been given one on my birthday before hehe.

Off my dad, sisters and brother I received money which some of it I have put towards some clothes and the rest of it I am going to keep for a while and not just waste it.

Time for a good ole Chinese takeway with my best friend and parter and watch my Disney Movie marathon movie for today. Thanks to everyone for the kind messages, presents and love today. Love you all Immy xxx

23rd Birthday! (I've Never Eaten So Much Food!)

You may know, you may not know hehe that last weekend I turned 23 years old, I can honestly tell you I have no clue where the last year has gone. It has flown by in a flash.

In a post a few weeks back I originally didn't have any plans for my birthday which changed and all of a sudden I had a full 4 day weekend of plans.

(I don't own this photo)

The weekend before my birthday the beautiful Jem took me for an amazing afternoon tea at Patisserie Valarie which is an amazing Patisserie chain over the UK although I was unaware that they did lunch and dinner like burgers and chips which look incredible and I have to try.

The afternoon tea consisted of 5 different flavoured finger sandwiches being egg and cress, ham and mustard, salmon, cucumber and chicken. Then 4 scones, 2 pots of jam and clotted cream which was incredible some of the best scones ever. And to finish off there was 3 cakes and 2 eclairs.

It also came with a choice of hot drink which was nice as I am not a tea lover so it was a Hot chocolate with whipped cream for me <3

She got me the most amazing personalized Pocahontas wine glass, she is my favorite Disney Princess!

 

On the Friday of my Birthday weekend me and my boyfriend went out for some lovely food at burger place called "Burger Joint" in Bristol where you make and choose your own burgers and you can have anything from a tick sheet they provide you.

I had a Venison burger with Montgomery cheese, pulled pork and chorizo and my boyfriend had the wild Boar burger.

After this even though we were full to the brim we ended up in a dessert bar called "Kaspa's" where they serve waffles, sundaes, crepes, cakes and a range of ice cream. Its safe to say I didn't really need to eat this but I had Chocolate M&M based waffles with Nutella, white and milk chocolate sprinkles. It was amazing!!!!!!

We ended up going home and laying on the bed with food hang overs. On the Saturday I went to pick up my homemade chocolate orange cupcakes from "Hey Cupcakes" she is friend of a next door neighbor of mine who makes the most amazing cakes and cupcakes. This is my 3rd order from her now and she never fails to impress. My mum then got me a triple chocolate cake hehe talk about chocolate overload!

On my actually birthday I met up with my other bestie and went for a meal with my mum and Liz to the Harvesters (more food I know) where I had a mixed Grill and free birthday ice cream :P

Presents:

Now on to Presents, I love presents and Cards they're one of my favorite bits.

Its safe to say people who brought me cards this year know me very well hehe! Audrey, Hello Kitty, New York, Pugs, Alice In Wonderland and Cupcakes and cake hehe!

From my boyfriend he got me my first Disney Tradition which is Minnie Mouse which is adorable and I now want the matching Mickey. He got me a Groot Funko and OITNB Book, he also kindly paid for all my food when we went out.

My bestie in work Ali got me the cutest Eeyore Disney Tradition along with a beautiful Lush gift box.

My bestie Samiee got me two Tsum Tsums which I ended up having early and then she got me "Yoshi's Woolly World" AHHH I have been wanting this for ages and the game is incredible.

Of my Sister she got me a Happy Jackson wash bag, this brand is one of my new favorites as I have the Travel stuff wallet and over night bag although I really want to buy more now.

Off the rest of my family I received lots of money which I have used to go shopping and to put towards my Disneyland Paris fund.

I got lots of amazing presents/money for everyone, I am so grateful. Thanks to them all for making my weekend special.
