Happy Birthday

I had a wonderful 53rd Birthday. I started off a dual celebration Birthday lunch last Sunday with my sister Terry, whose birthday was March 6th, my Mom, and Joe. Then on Friday I went to celebrate with "The Girlfriends" at breakfast. As the storm marched in, we gathered around a cozy fire and visited. Then it was time to head home and hunker down and wait for the winter storm. The kids came over to eat cake. Hayli and Kylie designed and ordered my birthday cake. I had help blowing out the candles - there were more than 53.

After eating cake and ice cream they raced to get home before the worst of the storm hit. The next morning we woke up to almost 7 inches of snow. It was beautiful.

By Saturday fternoon the sun came out and it started to melt.

It was a great day so full of my favorite things - family, friends, a cozy fire, and snow.
