Birthday Blessings

I have been so blessed with dear sisters in Christ, who have become very close friends. We have Bible study together on Tuesday mornings. Today, because my birthday is on Thursday, they made me cupcakes and chocolate chip cookies for during the study. I must say, these aided my diet efforts considerably! They also sent me home with beautiful flowers and lovely chocolates...so pretty, I'll just look at them. Hahaha. Nope.

I celebrated with my family this past weekend. I'm so thankful for a wonderful family who loves me despite myself. My parents gave me some new shirts and jeans. I'm so excited, but I'll spare you from the model portfolio. Although, I did make Josh sit through it! Dave and Amy gave me a new book that has crafting and recipes! I'm excited to try some of it soon.

We have some plans this weekend that I will promptly blog about when they take place. I have decided that I like stretching this out. Yeah for birthdays!!

Beautiful flowers that even make my kitchen sink happy.



Chocolates that make anyone happy. Thanks Jessica! They are so pretty!



Flowers and chocolate. The way to a happy girl and a bigger pant size!
