I still get excited for birthdays.
I think they are so much fun.
This year I turned 38.
It's hard to believe because I still feel really young in my head!
On my birthday night they gave me these bags.
And I opened all this fun stuff!
Well, except for the drink.
Doug brought that huge drink home for me.
I got the Selection series, the sequel to Way of Kings- Words of Radiance by Brandon Sanderson, the next book in the Cragbridge Hall series, and the latest installment in Brandon Mull's Five Kingdom's series.
Plus I got a cute hat, a scarf (because I am trying to figure out how to wear them without being annoyed by them) and some jewelry that I picked up myself.
Plus my favorite gift- Abi wrote a little book for me!
After gifts were opened and the kids were playing in their room, I settled in with a giant oreo ( I made those this year instead of a cake) and a good book.
The best kind of birthday!
So glad they treat you right on your birthday, including letting you just sit and read after opening the gifts. You deserve it!
ReplyDeleteGood birthday stuff!
ReplyDeleteI love your jewelry! And few things are better on your birthday than relaxing with a good book!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I am not a huge jewelry person but every once in a while I find something I really like. And that is always fun.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Best way to end a birthday is with a book!
I totally know what you mean about not feeling that old in your head. I am pretty sure I am only 22, but my birth certificate keeps trying to say I am turning 40 this year. I am okay with aging. It just doesn't feel how I expected it to feel. Sadly, I also look a lot younger in my head than the mirror is suggesting lately. Oh well, happy 38th!
