Thank you everyone for giving me such warm birthday greetings. It was fun to come home after my busy day and read all the nice comments you all made!

Do you want to hear about my day? Good!
- woke up to cinnamon rolls in the oven and thoughtful cards from the kids
-sweet kids greeting me as they tried their best to be perky at 7am
-took the kids to school and realized my car had been vacumed, washed and a new CD in the player
-worked out with my trainer and felt good I have kept with it since July
-took a hot shower afterward and reminded myself of the above comment
-had lunch with my mom and sister at my favorite restaurant
-received some wonderful gifts (one is pictured above)
-drank a margarita with lunch
-my mom picked up the kids from school and took them to her home
-had time to kill before meeting Nathan for dinner and poked around and bought the fabric below
-met Nathan at the SAME RESTAURANT I ATE FOR LUNCH BECAUSE IT IS THAT GOOD
-had a hibiscus margarita
-got to chat with my mother-in-law in the Philippines
-really got started on my book club book (Birds of Fall, love it!)
-went to bed fairly early and totally thought it was a treat

I had a really nice day and thanks to my family for the effort it took to make my day so nice. Thanks!

I just took this shot of Tizzy and just had to include it, although it is random…isn’t she darling?

I’m glad to see you had such a nice day! It’s those little things, isn’t it, that make it so special?

There’s a store in Ann Arbor that carries those little framed embroideries, aren’t they cute?! Happy Birthday. I want some of that cake.
