Happy birthday Alanna!

Happy birthday to my gorgeous granddaughter Alanna Sarai who today turns 15. Seems like only yesterday she was our little bundle of joy and today she's a growing young lady, whose not only beautiful but smart. We're so proud.

Happy birthday to me!

Yep, another birthday crept up on me. I had such a great day thanks to my husband. I got some books, some iTunes cards, some stitching goodies but most of all the love, support, and MANY well wishes from friends and family. Even had a new arrival on my birthday when my niece gave birth to Julianna Lissette, born at 4:30pm weighing in at 7 lbs., 6 oz. and 20" long. Another memorable birthday! THANK YOU ALL!

Happy birthday Sis

Happy birthday to my sister Luz who today turns 53 years young. Love you girl!

My birthday weekend

Having four days off was just delightful! Hubby took the day off on Friday with me and we spent my birthday together. We had breakfast out, did some shopping and basically enjoyed our time together. That evening my family took me out to dinner to one of my favorite restaurants, Habana Cuba in San Jose. I received a beautiful torquoise necklace from my daughter and she also plotted with her brother to have a formal photo taken of me with my grandson while I'm in San Antonio later this month. Patrick really took me by surprise by getting me an iPad which I been longing for since it was first released by Apple.

I had a complete day of shopping with my daughter on Saturday which was so much fun. While we do have different styles it's uncanny how well we know each other's taste. Oh boy can she spot a bargain! LOL!

The rest of the weekend was quiet with time to indulge in some reading and stitching (which I can't share since it was a model). A very nice birthday weekend indeed.

Happy Birthday Hubby!

Wanted to take a moment from my crazy schedule to wish my husband Patrick a very Happy Birthday.

Happy Birthday Sarai

I want to wish a very happy, special, and loved filled birthday to my daughter Sarai. Love you sweetie.

Happy Birthday Son

Hard to believe I actually have a son who is turning 32 years old today. Where have the years gone? I found a few pictures to remind me. 

Happy Birthday Miz! We love you and miss you very much.

My special birthday

I celebrated my 53rd birthday while on vacation. It all started with some beautiful cards and gifts from the gals in Ohio...Renee, Nancy and Lauren. I got a beautiful photo album, a cute floss ring, and some gorgeous fabrics (no pictures yet as I had the items shipped).

While in Cleveland I had dinner with my best friends from high school who treated us to a great meal at the Texas Roadhouse. The following evening I was surprised by my siblings with a small party with more gifts and the most delicious cake. Pictures of that evening are posted to:
