35!

If you ask some people, I entered middle age on Monday.
After much research, I've determined that this is NOT so!
The average white woman lives to 79, which means that middle age starts
at 40!  Whew!!

Anyway, we celebrated with my sister-in-law and nephew on Sunday night since we were driving home on Monday.  Doesn't that chocolate cake look delicious?!  Lots of yummy, fudgy frosting.

After getting back home on Monday, Bob, the kids and I went out to dinner.
It's so nice to occasionally not have to cook!
Then we headed over to Max and Amanda's for dessert.
They live on a golf course, and the kids love their backyard!
It was beautiful evening ..... we sat out on the back patio while the boys and
Emma threw the frisbees.

It seems that, as you get older, your birthdays last longer!  :)
Last night, a few of the other moms in the area left their kiddos at home with
the daddies, and we headed to The Crepery for dinner and dessert.  Ever been?
It's delicious!!  Here are some photos of the dessert crepes we demolished.

I have to say that it felt very good to exercise this morning!  whew!!

I have some very crafty friends!
Look at some of the cards I received for my birthday.

{This looks just like the old machine that's in my living room!}

This one is not handmade, but I thought it was beautiful!
I'm gonna try to duplicate it with stamps...once school starts...A WEEK FROM TODAY!!
