A Day In Which I Felt Loved

Today was my birthday...and I had a great day.

I got to sleep in this morning until 9am...yes I am keeping it real on the blog, that is me sleeping with my mouth open.

This is the delightful breakfast I was served in bed.

We had a real calm morning just hanging out and then this afternoon we were off to church.

Then my bloggy and real friend Bren dropped by with a little gift. There was more than just Dr Pepper. It really meant a lot to me that she would drop by to see me...and would bring balloons! Thanks Bren, you're such a great friend!

For dinner we had sushi. Okay it isn't really sushi when the fish isn't raw, but I don't know the right word.

I made stir fry for the kidlets that weren't interested in trying it...which was 4 out of 5. Big J was the adventurous one.

I had some lovely gifts from family and friends. My mom-in-law knows I have been struggling with migraines lately and gave me my drug of choice, along with this sweet picture for my house.

Also Linda sent me some personalized note cards and "Good Mail" labels. I have wanted the "Good Mail" labels for quite some time, so I was very excited to get them. Now I have to be sure to send some "Good Mail"! Thank you Linda you are so sweet.

I really enjoyed just being with my family and feeling the love.

Okay, so maybe Ham isn't feeling the love.

Big Daddy made this awesome dessert....and yes he made it. I will share the recipe with you tomorrow on "Menu Monday". It was very, very yummy!

It was a long day full of lots of love and well wishes and I feel extremely lucky to have the family and friends that I do.
