What a day!!

...Ahem...as many of you regular blog readers know, I just had a birthday! It was a wonderful day, one where I felt special and loved by so many people. Thank you to everyone who called and wrote with birthday wishes!

Ok, here's a photo journal of my day...

It started out with some of this...(delivered, of course) :)

Here's the damage. Those WERE pancakes in there!! They didn't last for long!
After breakfast (me and the Hubby were TRYING to relax on the couch) we had a little bit of this...


and then some of this...


So I felt a tickle session was in order, just to get everyone's attitudes right :)


After lunch I went and got a massage----a full body massage-----a one hour full body massage----for less than $6. I never knew something like that existed! It was a fun afternoon of pampering.
After I came home I discovered the Hubby doing this...


He was baking a birthday cake! His first ever! So sweet.

After the cake was finished baking, we got dressed up (I'm wearing a dress that Nana sent in a birthday package! I LOVE it!) and went out to Hooley's, a, Irish pub/restaurant. We had heard they had some good western food, and boy did they ever! We ordered Mozzarella Sticks for an appetizer...
...then we shared a Caesar salad (the first salad we've had since we left the states!) mmmmm, it was so yummy

Here's Daniel about to take the first blessed bite...

...and then, for the main course, we ordered...what else?? BURGERS!
Oh my, they were good!

After dinner we walked around a little bit, I got some coffee, and then we caught a taxi and headed home. I was excited to go home because I knew what was waiting on me there...

THE BIRTHDAY LOOT! There was clothes and movies and snacks from Nana and Grandmommie, a bag (that I bought with some birthday money), and the wrapped presents were from Mimi and Topa! (in those were a beautiful Willow Tree angel and 2 Bird of Paradise candles! aaahhhh) Also waiting on me, but not pictured, was a brand new blender from my sweet Hubby!

And last, but CERTAINLY not least, at home waiting on us to get there was the oh-so-special-made-by-the-hubby birthday cake! Didn't he do good??

Looks like you had such a good birthday! Thank you for sharing it with all of us readers. I'm always anxious to view your blog because you are one of the few that still blog! LOL Tell Daniel good job on the cake, but what happened to the rest of the red border? Was that an artistic approach? lol
