Happy Birthday to Me!


Today is my birthday! The big 37! I was woken at 6.30ish by the girls who had slept with their presents under the bed. The BBC mini version of Pride and Prejudice, I have watched it so many times on video, worn the tape out! And these lovely quilt books below. I will admit I actually ordered them myself from the Book Depository so they weren't a suprise.....

Daz had some flowers delivered the door which are just stunning. One day when we were madly rich and drowning in money I will get free flowers delivered weekly. One day...... won't be any day soon as driving home this afternoon from a dear girlfriends house where I was spoilt with morning tea and birthday cake, the radiator on our car decided to split. So to cut a long story short, we are looking at a big repair bill that can't be done till next Thursday! But turning it around onto a positive side, I recieved lots of birthday phone calls, had two birthday cakes and am truelly blessed to have two beautiful daughters and a loving husband help me celebrate the big day. That is the best pressie a girl could ask for!
