What I got for my birthday

Before I start I want to say I'm not bragging in any way, I just enjoy reading these sort of posts so thought would share some pictures of some of the lovely things I got for my birthday earlier this month.

I posted here about how I felt before the day & surprisingly this year I was excited about it! My little Miss had strict instructions not to wake me up (!) so I had a bit of a lay in & had lots of nice messages when I woke up. Then I went downstairs to be greeted by an excited girlie who couldn't wait for me to open my presents. Between you & me, I couldn't either!


I had lots of cards & gifts so felt very lucky. I can't share pictures of it all separately as there were too many so will post as much as possible without making it too boring. But I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who gave me stuff as I really appreciate it. People know me very well as everything I got I would have chosen myself & there was a lot of sparkle :-)

So in no particular order here we go...















I didn't want to do too much especially as our fundraiser was only 3 days later so I went for lunch at my favourite vintage café with little missy, hubby & my mum. We had cakes too. Of course!



We spent the afternoon chilling & some of my friends poppped in to bring yet more cards & presents!

As I am a member of the Crown & Glory Glitterati (which if you read my blog you will know what I am talking about!) I got a sparkly crown for my birthday so of course it would have been rude not to wear it (& someone else did too as you can see above!).


I was pretty shattered by the end of the day but had been totally spoilt so felt like a little kid with all my lovely goodies!



In the evening I ran a bath with one of my new Lush bath bombs & decided to have some champers. We've had a bottle since Christmas but don't particularly like it however I reckoned I deserved a cheeky glass.


I drank some while I was in the bath but didn't really enjoy it so I also had a glass of Jack Daniels on the rocks (an old favourite!) which made me realise why I don't drink as I am intolerant to alcohol!!! Palpitations galore & awake most of the night... oops. But all in all a lovely day & despite being a year older I shall still act as crazy as ever! Age is just a number as they say...
