Cara Bures Parker

Thank you all so much for the birthday wishes! This birthday completely exceeded every expectation and was full of the best kind of surprises.

1. It started with my husband completely surprising me with a new little summer whip. 🚙
Meet my Mini Cooper, Eloise. (If you watch Bridgerton, you understand the name… and yes, she already has a personality.)
2. My mom and sister pulled off the ultimate surprise and flew in my college roommate from Alabama… who I have not seen in over 15 years. Which seems wrong since I am pretty sure we graduated about 10 years ago. I am choosing not to fact check that.
3. My family recreated my FAVORITE childhood birthday cake, and it was perfect. The only thing missing was the Wonder Woman Underoos… but honestly, the adorable handbag my sister gifted me was a much better upgrade.
4. We ended the day with an amazing dinner at Ishnala… the perfect finish to a pretty unforgettable birthday.
Feeling very loved… and officially celebrating like someone who earned that AARP card!
