All hail Queen B! Today, the “Formation” singer turns 35 years old! So, how does one of the most famous women in the world celebrate her birthday? With another one of the most famous women in the world.

Beyoncé and daughter Blue Ivy are spending Labor Day weekend on a girls trip with Michelle Obama and first daughters, Sasha and Malia. According to the Daily Mail, while President Obama is in China at the G20 Summit, FLOTUS, Beyoncé and daughters are sharing quality time together at Camp David in Maryland.

Even though it is her birthday, Bey could probably use a mini-vaca: she is currently in the middle of The Formation World Tour, which began in April, and just last weekend, attended the MTV VMA Awards where she picked up eight moon men statues.

Beyoncé, who also has collected 18 Grammy Awards throughout her solo career, started singing as a youngster in Houston, Texas and competed in local talent shows, according to Biography. As a teenager, Bey joined cousin Kelly Rowland and two classmates to form an all-girl group with Beyoncé’s father acting as the band’s manager.

In 1997, after changing the group’s name a few times as well as a few of the members, Destiny’s Child was born with a record deal at Columbia. Even though the ladies were enjoying much success, after a few years, Beyoncé started branching out on her own – first as an actress in movies and then as a solo artist. In 2003, she released her debut album Dangerously In Love.

Beyoncé has created six albums to date each with their own unique sound and quite often, message (hello Lemonade). And though fans always seem to anxiously await what kind of beat Bey will drop next, she never disappoints when it comes to fierce female anthems. And perhaps it has been her strength, confidence and fearless attitude when it comes to music that has made her the only artist in history to have all of her first six studio albums reach the top of Billboard’s album charts.

On the personal front, Beyoncé and Jay-Z celebrated eight years of marriage in April and daughter Blue Ivy will turn five in January. A couple, once very private about their own relationship and then showing Blue’s face, now document their adventures on Beyoncé’s Instagram (much to our delight).
