We went to my parents house this weekend and celebrated early. (My bday is the 13th) We did a lot of nothing, just hanging out talking. I did elliptical Saturday and Bobby and I ran 3 miles this morning. It was nice, and not too hot yet!
Last night we had birthday cake, it was wedding cake flavored, my favorite! (I also had a wedding cake flavored snowball yesterday!) So I thought I would just post a few pictures from the festivities. This week will be crazy, sadly, Bobby’s favorite aunt passed away this morning, exactly one week after his dad, so it is hard on the family, there will be another funeral at some point this week. Everyone has been so kind. We have gotten several cards, phone calls, and e mails in the past week and it all means a lot to us!
say cheese!
my parents put my presents in a reusable New Orleans Saints bag, haha
Look at my pretty cake! It has poured icing on it. Yum!
I definately had to light my own candles. not cool! At least they sang to me!
Now, I always, always, get a “birthday week” and I am not sure when it is starting but it must be soon! Ok going to unpack.
QOTD: Do you celebrate on one day or multiple days?
Sorry to hear about Bobby’s Aunt! That’s so sad! :0(
I always have a birthday week! lol It’s much more fun that way!! Glad y’all had fun! Your cake looks awesome!! Love that Saints bag!
the cake is so yummy, just a touch of almond flavor, and so moist. Can’t wait to have more tonight!
Happy Birthday and I am glad you had a wonderful early one. I am so sorry for you guys loss, keep strong and I will keep you both in my prayers.
thank you!
i’m jealous. I don’t even really get a day.
ggrrr don’t get me started you!
So sorry to hear about Bobby’s aunt 🙁
But your birthday cake looks amazing! I hope it tastes as good as it looks!
it is so good! tastes like wedding cake!
thanks. she was in pain, so at least she isn’t suffering. She fell and broke her hip Tuesday.
Heather, I am so sorry about the losses you and Bobby have had this year. But I am glad that you took time out to celebrate your birthday. And guesss what – you share the day with me, and my FIL. LOL. However, I have a feeling that we are all from different decades. LOL. BTW, your consistency with running is what inspires me to keep going…!!!
how cool! I only know one other person with my birthday. Happy early bday to you!
Thank you for your sweet comment!
In my family we totally have birthday weeks. I make a pretty big deal out of it. Especially since my birthday is January 4th, right after Christmas, I make it a big deal. No Christimas mixed with birthdays for me! And because I’m cheesy I tend to remind everyone that my half birthday is July 4th. I like to think fireworks are all for me =) And so sorry to hear about the 2nd passing. That must be so rough! You’ll pull through
oh too funny! well happy late half birthday!
