Hello Peeps !!!

Happy Birthday to Me!

What a perfect day to celebrate my special day- started out with a hearty breakfast with my kids and the rest of the family. I had the best Pumpkin Pancakes for breakfast, over medium eggs, bacon and cinnamon apples on the side...and coffee, coffee, coffee. I had been partying since yesterday-went to lunch with my oldest son and his family yesterday and got to spent time with Cade-a-rooni , a movie with my DH ( sat with my BFF who happened to be in the same movie that we planned to watch) and then went to cosmic BINGO which was a lot of fun. My number came out a lot (18) last night. and this afternoon, a broadway show (Anything Goes) with my DH.
And the presents- WOW!!! pink roses from my sweet brother and guess what- a new camera from my kids that I had been wanting so bad.  I can't wait to use it !!!! Anf of course more presents.....

I am having a wonderful day... and thank you for a wonderfully wonderful family and friends that remembered my birthday!!!!! muuuuah !!!!

I am getting around to cropping and fixing some pictures that we took at Disney World, so I thought I'd share a scrapbook page since I have not done one in a while. The page is a designer page that went perfectly for what I had in mind. I just kept everything the same, other than just moved the flowers a bit more to the left. Hope you like it.
