Well, I had my 35th birthday on Saturday!  I received so many birthday wishes from my family and friends...new and old!!  It was a wonderful day full of chocolate cake!!  (yay!)
We started My husband started ripping up the floor in my work area, then we will be moving on to the flooring in the living room.  I picked out a new paint color too!  I'm pretty excited!  If you remember I mentioned we had been remodeling the kitchen, well this is what it looked for before:

and there were no more cabinets on the far wall....and now!!!


My husband rocks!!  We've needed more cabinets for so long!!  and all of those were added!!
I'm so happy!!

I also received another award!!  The lovely and talented Michele, from By Your Side gave me The Circle of Friends Award!!

The conditions of accepting this wonderful blog award are for me to list 5 things that I like to do. After creating that list, I am to pass on this blog award to 5 more bloggers that I would like to learn more about...

I LOVE to be with my family!! ( that includes my 4 legged babies!)

I Love to help other people, my son is following in my footsteps and becoming a big supporter of the American Cancer Societys Relay for Life!!  He works very hard at raising money, in fact we spent part of my birthday delivering flowers that he sold for the Relays Daffodil days!!!
