a bit about my birthday.....

it started off with this.....

and moved on to this 

{those seasoned roasted garlic crisps were VERY YUMMY}.....

and then I was presented with this.....

which contained this.....

which, in turn, contained this 

{it was just like playing 'pass-the-parcel'}.....

a commissioned handmade book containing pages 

filled with photos and memories including ones like this.....

and this

and this 

{that's me in the red & white stripey swimsuit 

with my big brother at Weston-super-Mare}.....

my sister made me this.......

and also sent me this......

how blessed I am.....
