Oh Yeah I'm Spoiled

My heart is absolutely overflowing with love and gratitude to all my wonderful friends who have sent me birthday wishes and helped make today absolutely wonderful!!! I was spoiled with being taken out to lunch by a friend and treated to a movie by another sweet friend. Throw in a couple of great presents and then I topped off my day with a free birthday burger from Red Robin....oh yeah, I'm spoiled and I am stuffed!

I dug out an old photo album and thought it would be fun to share some past birthday pictures with you (thanks to Jane for the inspiration - and happy birthday to Jane too today:))

My 3rd birthday

On my 3rd birthday - I still wake up with that same bed head to this day:)

My 4th birthday

On my 4th birthday - sporting an awesome outfit crocheted by my Great Grandma.

My Dad

And another one for good measure of my dad sporting a HUGE afro!! circa May 1971 - about 2 months before my parents were married. I totally love that hair.

And Winners - we have WINNERS of my notebooks for my birthday and my blogaversary. The random number generator kicked out #6, 12, 1 and 5 so congratulations to Affectionknit, Elaine, Jane and rohan knitter!!!
