Life is short, so wear a dress





I really feel like getting all dolled up and going out to dinner with my family...we all did that in May, sort of by accident...it's long story really. We were on our way to go to my cousins wedding, but ended up not being able to go due to the fact that we couldn't find the church lol not good! We were all really disappointed about not being able to attend the wedding...i really wanted to see my cousin get married! Plus we were hungry and reception food sounded good lol. So while driving through Columbus on our way back home we found this Mexican grill named Los Cabos, and we were already dressed up so we decided to go a head and stop for dinner. It was late in the evening so the place was pretty crowded, and i was a bit hesitant since i hate loud chaotic environments, but this place won me over. To be honest, i'm not much of a fan of Mexican food, i'm half Mexican so growing up that was all we ever had and i became kind of tired of it, but the food at Los Cabos was quite great! My sister Crystal (who i call Crys...or bunny....or freak on most days) and i shared The Texas Burrito, and it was mmm!
(Salsa...mmm...)
Mostly though, i enjoyed the atmosphere the best, it was quite classy for a Mexican restaurant, and i loved being there all dolled up with my family. There is something so special about going out with family and friends and just laughing while wearing a pair of great high heels and the blue dress you bought that instantly became your favorite dress...it felt so classy (The first photo in the blog is of my sister Crystal and i sitting in the restaurant...i'm in that favourite blue dress..happy!). And i loved the fact that we had never been to that restaurant nor had we ever been to the town it was in, we just stumbled upon it...I want to do it again! It was so unexpected and random...like an adventure of sorts. I love getting dressed up in a dress and heels and then going out and having a great night with my favorite people. My family and i want to make a once a month tradition of getting dressed up and going out to dinner...i hope we do it :)
