I celebrated my birthday on Friday, January 11th. It was a lovely day, with co-workers at the Hoyt presenting me with a birthday cake, complete with (only 4, thank goodness!) candles, cards and gifts. Annette and Scott Bowen sent a summer flower arrangement with a balloon, and Dave arrived home from New Jersey on Saturday bearing baby's breath, carnations and roses. The Relief Society serenaded me on Wednesday evening; Maribelle Badilla baked one of her famous birthday cakes. Jenny and her family in Australia sent a little clam shell box containing a vibrant, blue bracelet and Mari McGrew, who shares the same birthday, sent a beautiful fabric box containing Yankee candles. Emails and phone messages arrived and I am expecting a box from Cam and Natalie. I'm going to New Jersey on Friday to spend time with Dave, and we're going out to dinner....so my birthday goes on and on and on!
Thank you to all the people who love me. Hmmmm, how I relish my Birthday!

Happy Birthday Anne! My mother use to call March her Birthday Month...and her celebrations went on all month! It sounds like you are following in her foot steps and it's a great way to go! My birthday month is coming right up soon (I tell everyone so no one forgets!)
We loved your visit over the holidays and we look forward to when you can come again!
Happy Birthday!! It sounds like it was a great one for you. I got quite envious when I saw the picture of you relaxing with your cat...well, not so much the cat part, but the relaxing part looked great! :)
Happy Birthday Annie! We miss you!

Happy Birthday! 53? Are you sure? Your soul is so much younger than that! :)
