This year's birthday was very low key. I worked on my actual birthday, so Mike made me dinner the night before and had my parents over. He made me yummy stuffed shrimp and twice baked potatoes.
My parents bought a coconut cake.
You can't ask for too much with a family of five, but I think this one is a keeper. I'll just have to photoshop a smiley picture of Serena.
I received my actual birthday present from Mike a few weeks later as he still had to work in his "lair" to complete it. He took our old french doors original to the house (which were in really bad shape) and refinished them, then mounted them behind the headboard. He also bought me my IKEA duvet cover that I had been wanting. I love it. Half of our bedroom is now complete!
It was a good birthday. Thirty-three was a good year. I hope to make this next year even better. Having a birthday in January helps me to reflect on the past year and what I want to accomplish in the year ahead. (That's the ONLY good thing about a Jan. birthday!) I want to help others more, learn more about the Gospel through my Primary lessons, spend more QT with my kids, become more organized, and as always, try and get better at remembering people's birthdays.
