Birthday Celebrations!


My husband brought home this pink & purple, frosted confection of swirl and girly Princess Birthday cake... last night. I said, "Honey- it's perfect! But you know my birthday is not until tomorrow... right?"
He said, "I know, but last time I bought you a princess cake you only got to look at it for a few minutes and then we cut into it and it was gone. I thought if I got it tonight- you could enjoy it longer."
Isn't he a sweetheart! {This princess cake idea actually came from his sister.. who use to be the princess in her house. They would buy her a pink princess cake on her birthday. But now... she's been dethroned. They have a baby girl... she's the true princess now! Anyway- we stole this tradition from her. Thanks Nicole!}


My kids were acting a little strange this morning. My oldest son offered to make my bed for me. {???} I was making it... that is one of my fly baby routines and he said he would do it for me.

Then over breakfast son 2 said, "so.. you really don't go into your room the rest of the day , right?"
I said, " yeah, not much, unless I am doing laundry."
"So you wont be in there today.. right?"
"um... no I guess not, why?"

"WE HID YOUR GIFT IN YOUR ROOM! so don't go looking for it okay?" they are so excited they can't stand it... :0)

I said, "ya know what! I WAS going to clean my room today- maybe tell me where I shouldn't clean... ... and then I'll be sure not to find it."

then son 3 interrupts, "DON"T TELL HER! She's just trying to trick you!"

I promised I wouldn't' look for it. Honestly - I don't know if I would recognize it - even if I saw it. Is it some homemade project? { If I cleaned I might accidentally throw it a way...} Is it a book? please no cooking utensils... something from the dollar store?? could be.. they just opened one up in our small shopping center.

My friend Martha is fixing a birthday lunch for me today.. I thought that was super sweet of her. I just really have no big plans today. Just play with my boys, read and probably make some cards!!! the things I love best! NO cleaning or COOKING! {but maybe run a load of towels- we are desperate}

Also- shrimp truck- shrimp for dinner.. yum-o! I know it doesn't sound glamorous.. but seriously so good.

Thanks again for visiting!

Welcome to 36! I was so totally planning to come to your birthday lunch party except I wasn't invited. How rude is that? I think I shall blame Crash. She's over on her blog all bragging - "I went to Swirl's party, no actually I PUT ON Swirl's party, no actually I WAS Swirl's party!" It's embarrassing, really.
