Instead of some overly serious post on the joys of turning another year older, I decided to show you my *cough* *cough* birthday weekend in pictures!
It started with three of my favorite writing peeps — my CPs. (Sydney Bennett prefers to be behind the camera, but I swear she’s real!)
And, of course, there was CAKE! Gluten-free Strawberry Lemonade Cupcake with a gluten-free chocolate cookie — HEAVEN on a plate!
Met one of my besties and a couple of other friends afterwards for a stroll through Saturday Market.
And, of course, it wouldn’t be a birthday without a visit to a lingerie shop! 🙂
Later, Hubby and I were blessed with an opportunity to witness history being made by some incredible athletes.
I realized later that evening that I greeted my birthday wide awake instead of fast asleep.
Why? I blame it all on Laura Kaye and HER FORBIDDEN HERO! Incredible chemistry between the hero and heroine, making it oh-so-difficult to put down!!
And when I woke up, there was MORE CAKE!! (Thank you, Jenna Bayley-Burke!)
After Mass that morning, where Father David’s Homily focused on the importance of remaining flexible human beings (was he talking to me?!), I settled onto the back deck with a good book, and the company of two of my boys.
The weekend was capped off with dinner with friends at a local hang out.
All in all, it was a pretty tame weekend. Notice what wasn’t on the list of things I’d done? Yep. No writing. That’s for tomorrow morning. At 4:02 AM. Sharp.
G’night, all!

Happy Birthday, Melia!
Looks like you had a wonderful birthday! What fun pictures! Obviously, you like strawberries. And what a cute cat you have!
Thank you, Vonnie!
Yes, I totally enjoyed my weekend, and the sunshine was a plus! 🙂 Isn’t Alex cute? That’s not his best angle, but turns out it’s the only one I’d taken of him. And Bennett wasn’t in any of the photos. Guess we were enjoying the sunshine too much!
Have a great day, and thanks for stopping by!
