HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!

sO in the absence of my hubby on my bday, my

friends and family took very good care of me!

my friends took me to dinner, super fun!

MY bff Melissa made me this yummy cake!

Although my hubby was MIA he got his momto bring me this cake for my birthday at work!! Needless to say I had a LOT of cake, good thing i had people to share it with!

I probably should toss this one though since im still snacking on it!

ok so I have been wanting to start a new hobby for awhile now.......

SEWING

I actually got a sewing machine out of storage that was my great grandmas..... no such luck was not in a great working condition. So i had been looking online to find one at a good price,

UNTIL I GOT HOME FROM WORK ON MY BIRTHDAY AND FOUND THIS ON MY TABLE!

IT WAS LIKE CHRISTMAS ALL OVER AGAIN!

My wonderful grandma surprised me with this fabulous machine! I'm so excited to start using it!
I have some fun projects im looking forward to doing!

Hopefully my first project will be a practice baby quilt and then a real baby quilt! I will keep posting on my progress!

MY WONDERFUL MIA HUSBAND ALSO SENT ME THESE BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS!

MY FAVORITE! TULIPS A LITTLE SPRING TIME IN THE WINTER!

JUST A COUPLE MONTHS LEFT AND WE WILL BE BACK TOGTHER AGAIN!!!

HAPPY HOIDAYS!!

I HOPE EVERYONE HAD A GOOD HOLIDAY......

BRAD GOT TO COME HOME FOR TWO WHOLE WEEKS!

this was our first Christmas in our house and it was so much fun to decorate! I think decorating is my favorite activity, brad would probably have to agree since he built a huge shelf in our garage to keep all of our many decorations!

Christmas is for sure my favorite holiday! Ever since i have been little I wake up at the crack of creation and get everyone up! Well i gave brad some time i got him up at eight a clock!! we had cinnamon rolls and opened gifts!

We got to go to Boondocks on new years day! If you dont know what

that is, its an arcade type place. They have laser tag, bowling, and mini golf.

The mini golf is outside so we have to wait for warmer weather to play that but we had a lot of fun!

Sadly the two weeks ended and brad is now back in Texas, he starts school on Januray 14th and will be done sometime in April we dont have a for sure date yet, but were waiting anxiously!

The best gift that either of us could have got was to spend this time together!
