Happy Birthday To Me…

Tomorrow I turn 33 and my dad will sing “Happy Birthday to me, Happy Birthday to me…”.  I love my 30’s and I have so much to be thankful for.  I teach at a great school with great kids, have a wonderful husband, fabulous kids and a loving family. 

As I have gotten older, my wish lists have become smaller due to the fact that the older I (everyone) get, the more expensive our wish list becomes and this year is no exception

This year on my birthday/Christmas list, I had two B.I.G. things.  The first was a jewelry armor and the second was a laptop.  I have wanted a bigger jewelry box because my collection of jewelry has grown almost as big as my shoe collection.  I wanted a laptop because I’m starting my masters in January and needed something other than our home computer that I could do my masters work on.  Dewey and I wear our home computer out just with our teaching stuff.

I’m very thankful to have parents and in-laws that have spoiled blessed me!

Wish #1:  Granted

This is my old jewelry box…

This is my new jewelry box…

006 016

It matches our bedroom furniture perfectly and I L.O.V.E. it!

Wish #2: Granted

004 (2)

I love the fact that I don’t have to wait for Dewey to get done with his nightly school work for me to be able to do mine or blog…or check my e-mails. 

This baby will get a lot of use come January!

Thank you Mom and Dad and Jacque and Coach for spoiling me granting my wishes!
