HELLO 37!

My birthday celebration/month came in all sorts of fashion
and continued into March due to late birthday fun with CJ. 

To start off, a little THROWBACK fun. 

 

And now this is what 37 looks like for me!

Gifts came in the whole month long including these fabulous tulips from my parents. 

It took a lot of strength not to open, but I lasted til 12am of my birthday. That may be a record for me. I'm such a kid when it comes to gifts. Even giving. 

Instead of cake, I splurged on Cupcake Delirium goodness. Sooo Nummy!

I even ordered a few gifts for myself so it was fun to see what arrived in the mail. 

Apparently my mom is tired of hoarding our childhood items, so they are coming in the packages as well. However it is always fun to reminisce and enjoy what brought such happy moments in younger days. 

One of my favorite aprons was this personalized crayon holder. It may be where my creativity began. 

Gotta love THICKERS. I do!

The month was filled with so much fun and adventures:

Dinner at Cowfish Sushi Bar. 

Trip to Chuck E. Cheese with Ben. He hit the jackpot.

Snow Days = Free Day Off Work.

Basketball tournaments for my Rec Center teams. 2 of them won the championship :)

Mimosa. CHEERS!!

Celebrating the month with my nephew Braxton who turned 1!

 (and births of two new cousins )

Homemade cupcakes and gifts from Artsy friends. 

A good ole Po' Boy.
They must have known it was my birthday as this was my favorite sub (& they discontinued regular service of it), but it happened to be on the special :)

Tested out my Mini Insta camera.  Loved it...so much fun.

A relaxing Mani/Pedi at Beauty Brands. 

Yummy Kilwin's coffee ice cream in a waffle bowl with caramel topping. 

Cuddles with my Barkley. 

And cuddles with Mack Monkey (my win at Dave & Busters.)

And QT with my man.
