A Happy Birthday Day


Yesterday was sweet.  I documented it in Instagram, because I'm trying to get better at it and it is so handy to carry around my phone instead of big camera for the day.  But these are rather bad pictures.  I will keep at it, but I'll probably stick to my Nikon for blog posts. :)

In the morning, my sweetheart surprised me
with this beautiful orchid.  
 

But the real treat was that he made me this breakfast and brought it to me in bed. 
It was so delicious. Eggs with mushrooms, orange pepper, spinach, onion, and bacon. 
This was first for our marriage, and I loved it.


 Then opened up a few sweet cards sent from faithful friends and family.
There's just something so special about getting a birthday note in the mail. I forget to send them myself 8 times out of 10.  Funny how when my birthday comes around each year I am reinvigorated to be a dedicated birthday card sender - I'm always reminded how much it means.



In the afternoon, my heroic brother-in-law watched all seven of our children combined while Sister and I went out for lunch with our mum.  It was lovely, of course.


This dessert does not look very appetizing in the picture, so you'll have to use your imagination.


In the evening, this nice guy took me out for cozy, delicious dinner.


And more dessert....naturally. 


Still have the family birthday to celebrate, and then Sister and mum and I hope to getaway for a sleepover and shopping.  Yes, we know how to spread out the fun. : )

So thankful for a lovely day.
Lovely people.  And a new year.
