Birthday Ideas For When You’re Short On Time

It’s birthday weekend for Matt and I! We have the same birthday so we tend to celebrate together. This year, in lieu of lip-syncs and beach dates we are renovating a house. Matt looked at me the other day and said, “Hey, it’s almost your birthday – I bought you some floors”. ;) That’s about what birthdays are looking like for us this year.

Although who can resist spilling a little confetti on the floor to celebrate? Before we run out to enjoy a bit of weekend birthday fun, here are a few favorite ways to celebrate a birthday when you’re running are short on time.
