Birthdays

If you know me, you know I love an excuse to celebrate - the days can be long but the years are short so by the time summer rolls around, we are sometimes a little squirrelly! My antidote is to celebrate. And birthdays are the best excuse, because you can stretch out the celebrations as long as you like. 

My trip to Maine was the unofficial kick-off to the b'day celebrations and it just rolled from there. 

Highlights included a delightful basket of goodies from a dear friend; 

a bit of fun at the office (yes this year I had to work!); 

dining al fresco with the boys - some goofy pics and dancing were involved;

RibFest (ok not strictly birthday related but I am claiming it, live music and all)

and the grand finale - a joint celebration (Alfie's birthday is a week after mine) 

with the Family on Canada Day. 

Bubbly, cheesecake and presents - what more could a girl ask for, eh?!

A compliment from her Dad, like this one perhaps!

"You look like a movie star - from the 1930s". 

Thanks Dad xoxo
