Happy Friday, everyone! I am taking the day off to spend with my family and celebrate a birthday.
People often shy away from celebrating birthdays. I think this year I am focusing on all the good and appreciating the here and now. I am indeed blessed and looking forward what’s next.
Adore this photo. My mom and dad taught me how to drive on a 71 VW bug. Both my older brother and sister drove that car. It was a red bug and I was a disaster of a driver in the beginning. My mom still laughs about how I could not park it in a spot in an empty parking lot. I still argue that’s because I had nothing by which to judge if I was straight or not. Cars next to me would have helped. I think. Anyway, I feel very very blessed to be celebrating another year. Life is pretty darn wonderful and today I plan to embrace the next chapter in my life and wear as much pink as possible. Just seems like a good birthday color to me.
Happy Friday to all of you. Thanks for taking a moment from your day to stop in and hang out with me on the blog every now and again.

Hey girl! So sorry I missed this post. I pray you had a fabulous day celebrating with family. Been a rough week here as our oldest was in a horrific car accident, she is fine but her Hummer totaled, dad had his heart procedure Friday, and we celebrated Katie’s graduation yesterday (I forgot to take pictures!!), so I’ve been MIA in blogland lately.
Jennifer H says
