The 39th Milestone

It's my birthday and I can do what I want to, do what I want to, do what I want to.  You'd do it too if it happened to you!

On this most special of 39th birthdays, I want to drink tea and feast on smoked ribs, chocolate covered strawberries, and ice cream cake.  So I did.

Ali liked the cake!

Ian and the boys got me butterfly pea flower tea.
It's blue!

I did not want to do laundry.  So I didn't...even though I will undoubtedly live to regret that decision tomorrow.  In case you were wondering, I did not receive magical laundry gnomes for my birthday.  Sigh.

Me tomorrow when I face the dirty laundry pile.

Thank you to everyone who called, emailed, or sent a thoughtful gift.  I am certainly feeling loved.
