Happy Birthday to ME!
March 21st marked the big 2-6 for me this year.
I'm getting older and my crazy party days are seeming fewer and farther between so instead of a wild night on the town, I opted for a slightly tamer night in at our place. The girls came over and we had a great dinner of shrimp pasta ricotta creation a la Jenn and jello with whipped cream and berries for dessert. And of course lots of wine!
Jenn got some of those Christmas crackers (or Birthday crackers in this case) and we pulled out our hats, balloons, streamers, party favours and some pretty awesome jokes from those. You can see the lovely hats in the photos. One joke I remember was: What did the big chimney say to the small chimney? You're too young to smoke! hahaha Right up my alley in the joke department.
So besides the night of my birthday, I also celebrated with dinner at my favorite restaurant Play on Saturday night with Jenn and Mom and Dad are coming up this weekend to see me and celebrate as well.
I got some lovely cards from friends and family - the most entertaining package arrived yesterday and it was from Andrea, Jason, Rachel and Allison and included life-size tracings of Allison and Rachel coloured by each! I put them up on my wall and I've included some pictures below - too cute! I loved it.
A very happy birthday indeed!
