The big 2-5

Among other significant milestones I've celebrated in the past few months, I recently added to that list reaching the quarter of a century mark.

To celebrate, Vincent treated me to an amazing dinner at National Harbor - a landmark I've been admiring from a distance (literally, we can see it from our balcony) since moving here.

The restaurant du jour was Bond 45, an Italian steakhouse that boasts only two locations worldwide, the other in the heart of New York in Times Square. Everything about the evening was undeniably 25th birthday worthy:

Trying to take artsy photos of my food. Some of my blogger friends do this so well!

My cotton candy birthday cake...

...which happened to have ice cream at the bottom. I was feeling generous and let Vincent have some. Look how happy he is!

Complimentary limoncello. Mmm.

I have to admit, I'm pretty pleased with how 25 is starting off!
