Happy Birthday....To Me!! :)

Friday January 16th was my birthday! I turned 38 (doesnt feel like I could possibly be 38....so I guess that's the good part of it right?) :)

On Friday, one of my good friends at work (Robin) baked me a box of TO DIE FOR cupcakes.....oh my god...each of these is like a little piece of heaven, seriously....they are almost gone as James and Freddy love them as much as me thank goodness...no offense to Robin but I need these out of my house fast! HA!

Then I went to lunch with Robin, Jen, Paul and Linda from work........good times and lots of laughs (for like 2 hours straight with that bunch.......never a dull moment lunching with them!)

Went out to eat with my guys that night......then had dinner with the entire Salinas clan (and Jen) on Saturday nite at Las Rosas in Pearland....fabulous mexican food, a margarita and lots of great conversation! Thank you to everyone that came....made my birthday weekend that much more special!

Got a couple gift cards to Joann Fabrics, as well as some cash in my birthday cards...so I went today and decided I want to try my hand at making quilts...so I got a beginners book that has you make 24 different squares (each one a different pattern) that make up the quilt,and takes you step by step thru the process....got the fabric I need for the whole thing, a couple important gadgets and such...and I am off and running! Wish me luck! never had the patience before to try quilting, but with all the sewing I have done the last few years especially....Im feeling pretty good about it! Will be sure to post pics along the way, as well as the finished product.

Anyway, so again...to all my family and friends that celebrated with me in person, that called and wished me a happy birthday, emailed me or posted on facebook/myspace to me.....thank you so much.......I had a wonderful birthday and ready to tackle the big 38 and make this year a great one! :)
