Happy 27th Birthday Chris!

This past weekend was Chris' birthday. And what better way to celebrate than to head up to Mooloolaba on the Sunshine coast for some beach, sun, and good times. As soon as I got home on the Friday afternoon, we grabbed our bags and hopped on the train to start our 2 hour journey to paradise. We've been to Mooloolaba once before and really loved it there. It has a beautiful beach, but not the development that you would find on the Gold Coast.

We had decided to splurge a little bit and booked a vacation apartment for two nights right on the water. We used an online discount travel website, so we actually got a good deal. Plus, we were upgraded to a nicer apartment, so it was a really good deal! The apartment had a full kitchen, which was great because we like to cook for ourselves, and an AMAZING balcony that overlooked the ocean.

On Saturday night, we grabbed some chicken and veggies and went to the rooftop BBQ to cook ourselves dinner and sit with a glass of wine and enjoy the beautiful views of the ocean and the Glasshouse Mountains.
It was such a great weekend, even though we both got a little pink. Chris did some boogie boarding and I even gave it a go, even though my bathing suit kept losing it's battle with the waves! What a way to spend a birthday weekend!
