Anthony’s Golden Birthday

on August 28, 2009

Another gorgeous Friday night in Orlando!

The Husband and I were so happy to have a fun activity planned for tonight — it was Kelly’s boyfriend’s (Anthony) birthday party!

Before we went to the party, I stopped by our favorite vegetarian restaurant and grabbed dinner to go:

I grabbed a vegetable wrap with peanut sauce:

And some Mama Mix (quinoa, bean sprouts, carrots, and onions), which I jazzed up with grapes.

And then we headed over to Kelly’s. It was so nice to see all my girlfriends! The girls all talked about our upcoming races (Meghann, Megan, Kelly and I are all doing Disney together). The guys had a funny conversation about how they could "never" go vegetarian because they "cannot live" with meat. I noticed the Husband stayed very quiet. He’s always so socially polite. LOL. Must be that British side of him.

And Oliver and Maddie:

Anthony’s birthday was complete with carrot cake cupcakes, which were baked by my Meghann.

I had 1 and 1/2:

Hanging out with other food bloggers (that’s Megan) always cracks me up.

And I had a beer:

Off to bed! I’m doing 10 LONG MILES in the morning! Eck!

Edited to Add: So, Kelly and I keep getting comments that we look like sisters (actually, Kelly is Meghann’s sister. But I wanna be part of their family so it’s all good). What do you think — do we look like sisters? I think so!

You do look like sisters! That's funny. What a beautiful group of women!
Good luck on your 10 miles!

You look fabulous! I love your red dress and all of you look like you're having a great time … and you and Kelly definitely look like sisters. Also Caitlyn, it's a shame you can't do the Pittsburgh Marathon. I did it this year and it was my second marathon and my favorite (for obvious reasons! I love this city!)The weather was perfect and I beat my time by 12 minutes!

I think everyone at the Summit thought I was your sister. lol I think us looking alike is a complement. 🙂
Leianna August 29, 2009, 5:27 am
You do look like sisters, makes you fit right in! Good luckwith your morning 10 miles!
Karen August 29, 2009, 5:38 am
You absolutely look like sisters. 🙂

GOod luck with Disney, this will be my 2nd time running it. Very fun race! They have all the characters on the course so if you want to stop for pics, run with your camera, every character has an assistant with them who will happily snap the photo. Last year, I stopped for every pic available. I didn't have a great race time but loads of fun pictures. Have a great race!

Looks like a fun nigh and I'm another who loves your dress! Good find!

I definitely think you look like sisters.
Anonymous August 29, 2009, 6:05 am
Yeah, you really do. I've always thought you and Meghann looked like sisters. Y'all have similar smiles.
Mandy August 29, 2009, 6:12 am
Your dress looks amazing on you! Great color and fit!

I think you and Kelly could definitely pass for sisters!

Looks like a great night 🙂

Good luck with the run today!
HangryPants August 29, 2009, 6:26 am
I see the resemblance. At the Summit my sister thought you were Meghann because I kept saying "Meghann's sister."
Sara August 29, 2009, 6:56 am
YES, yes, YES, you look JUST like sisters! I was going to comment on this from the HLS pics, but didn't want to upset anyone, lol. When I looked fast at photos from the registration table/food festival, I thought she was you! Pretty freaky! But, yeah, you definitely look more like siblings than she and Meghann. Funny how that works out… Who knew you'd gain two sisters in one week?
hemp jogger August 29, 2009, 7:04 am

Beth August 29, 2009, 7:10 am

You definitely look like sisters.

That Mama Mix sounds simple and delicious
Angharad August 29, 2009, 8:24 am
You do look like sisters! Love the carrot cupcakes – totally delicious looking. How long has your husband been in the U.S.? I'm always so intrigued by my fellow Brits' paths here!

Good luck on the ten miles!
Caitlin at Healthy Tipping Point August 29, 2009, 8:30 am
Angharad –

He moved here when he was 16. His mom married an American. He isn't a citizen but has his greencard. Yay, brits!
Jamie August 29, 2009, 8:46 am
Funny… I have always thought Kelly looked like YOUR sister. Cute!
Anonymous August 29, 2009, 8:57 am
I always get you and Kelly confused in photos over at Meghann's blog. It's uncanny how similar you girls can photograph!
Jenna August 29, 2009, 10:37 am
ya i guess you two look more like sisters than megann and kelly! haha.

Jolene - EverydayFoodie August 29, 2009, 1:52 pm
Haha, I thought you looked alike as soon as I saw the pics of her from the Summit!
Kate August 29, 2009, 8:57 pm
In the beginning of following your blog I used to get you and Kelly confused -especially recently in photos from Healthy Living Summit!

Awesome blog, keep up the great work 🙂
Linda - one scoop at a time August 29, 2009, 9:49 pm
YES, you and Kelly do indeed resemble sisters!
