OCTOBER 27th..MY SPECIAL DAY!!!

This is my special day!!...Forty two years ago today I was born...My mom was in the hospital in labor with me while my grandmother{my mom's mom} was in the hospital having my Uncle John....I was born several hours before him..But I don't just have a "birthday"...I have a birthday month!!...October is my birthday month!!...I remember Taylor saying that she couldn't wait til her birthday month comes..I said "OH!NO!"...I'm not asking you to make this month special for me I will make it special for myself...So the month of October I have been a little kinder to myself and purchased a few little items for myself...We have had cake every week...The first week of October we had butter pecan cake with cream cheese icing..YUM!!!...The second week we had yellow cake with chocolate icing..My sister asked me last week "What cake are you having this week?"...I told her we were having brownies this week...Then Tim and Taylor started asking me "what cake are we having this week?"...Well, when my sister asked that this morning I told her real quick we were having chocolate with chocolate icing of course!!!!...My favorite!!!....Tim and the kids took me out to the Cracker Barrel for dinner...Love the atmosphere!!...So everyone should have a birthday month!!!...I highly recommend it!!!...And since I haven't ordered all my gifts for myself yet my birthday month will be spilling over into November..HA!...I wanted to share two pictures of some items that I bought for my birthday and I will share my other birthday gifts when I get them....hugs to everyone!!!...Jen

I've been wanting one of these for a long time...I will show pics when I get it up and towels put on it...


I absolutely LOVE these bowls!!...They are wonderful!!!..I have been wanting some of these for a long time, too!!!... I got these at thecandlebaker.com...The flash makes the colors bright, but the colors are really drabby like I like them..I don't decorate with green, but the color is really a moss color and almost looks black....I will share pics when I decide where they will go....... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~Happy Birthday to me!!!~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Happy Birthday! Today is my oldest son's birthday as well. A very special day indeed. I love the idea of a birthday month ... I will definately keep that in mind come April.

I moved here to West Tennessee from Dallas, Georgia, about 3 years ago. I have loved living in both places. Each is special. But I've lots of family in middle Tennessee. I hope someday you get your dream to return.

Smiles,
Lea
