#51 Cute Black Dress

I found a very cute black dress at Dillard's just in time for my birthday! I absolutely love this dress. It has all the elements I wanted in a black dress, it makes me feel pretty, it is classy, and versatile. Best of all it goes with my new zebra print stilettos the hubby bought me.

I have been on a mission to find this dress for years, I make my list and *poof* it appears.

# 14 New restaurant #1

We went to the Melting Pot for my birthday. We got the big night out four course meal and we dined in a private booth. The experience was amazing to say the least. All of the food was sooo delicious! From the cheese to the chocolate it was all tasty. I also tried their blackberry margarita, let's just say YUM! We also had champagne with dessert. It was nice to have a romantic evening out with the hubby. I would highly recommend going (little pricey for four courses though). If you sign up for their email list you get a free chocolate fondue for two and the champagne was free since it was a special occasion (fyi).

The start of something big

So I have decided to participate in the 101 things in 1001 days challenge. I love to make lists (some would say I live by them) and I love to tackle new things. Lately it seems as though some of the bigger or more personal tasks may never get done. This list is the perfect thing. Hopefully I can come up with 101 things and start my list in the next week.

Wish me luck!
