Feelin' the Birthday Love

happy-birthday

Thank you, thank you to all of you who were so sweet to pop in and wish me a happy birthday!

Isn't the DH a stinker?! He's a sneaky little devil....and very sweet.  Who knew bloggy-comments could be such a fun present?  A big MMWAHH! to my hubby. <3

I had such a nice day. My Sweet Girl served me breakfast in bed, complete with hot cocoa -- ah! Now that's what I call waking up! DH got a lot of friends, family and you 'friends in my computer' to jump on the birthday bandwagon, on the blog.  My mom and dad took me out to lunch, and then our little family had a sinful dessert together later that night. My sis and her family showed up at the restaurant and so we all ate together. The more the merrier!!  I had fun calls, emails and cards all during the day.

Here are a couple of presents I received:

Some very hard to find Pfaltzgraff Madrid White dinnerware.  I am only missing 1 dinner plate and the mugs, but finding as much of what we did with this set, is a coup! Woo-hoo! I have been wanting a nice set of white dishes, not too plain, not too foofy. These are just right.It's a Wonderful Life

My sister Jen took me to Tai Pan Trading for shopping and lunch and this is what she got me...

...she knows what the movie "It's a Wonderful Life" means to me. I love it. Thanks, sis!!!

As you can see, I am loved and VERY blessed. I had a very happy birthday.

Thanks for being a part of it.

Ah darn - see what happens when I miss a day or two of blog reading?? I'm SO sorry I missed your birthday. It sounds like it was truly wonderful. I'm glad for that - you deserve it!

And how thoughtful is that hubby of yours?? Tell him those of us in blogland thank him for taking such good care of his sweetie!

Ooooh, I LOVE those dishes. Those are just my cup of tea! How Kindredly! I love nice dishes. I swear I could have 15 different sets! Oh, heck, I could have MORE. (I probably already have about 6 different sets, but not all are full settings.) Michael just rolls his eyes. :-)

Glad you had a special day! Today was my dad's birthday and we just got back from going out to Olive Garden with the whole gang. SO fun and I LOVE seeing my children enjoying their cousins whom they adore!
