*sings* happy birthday ...

... to me!

so, i know it may seem 'self centered' to announce my own birthday ... but i'm going to do it anyway. (i hope that's okay)


so, I'm 27 today. which i find so hard to believe. i still feel like i'm a teenager. which i suppose is a good thing. and i'm happy to say, for the most part, that i'm pretty darn happy with where i am, who i am and what i'm doing. of course, we could all change some things if possible. but i consider myself very lucky and fortunate ... and happy!


i've meet some wonderful people over the years and i'm so thankful for everyone that has touched my life because without you (those of you reading this and those of you not reading this) i wouldn't be who i am today.

so, here's to another wonderful year! and new storms doors! (that's what i'm getting for my birthday ... and yes i know that's a weird gift, but i'm actually really excited about getting them! yay! )


oh, and the images are of a card my friend allison made me, isn't she talented!?

and one more thing ... don't forget to enter the giveaway. i'm loving ... seriously loving all your amazing ideas. now there are sooo many jams i want need to make. thanks ... and good luck! Pin It

Happy birthday Michael! I sent your first post about the quilting project to a friend of mine (Two Hippos) who has her own blog because I thought she'd find your blog interesting. She does lots of quilting - quilts, bags, etc. and she wrote a post about it, with tons of links to your site. Check her out at 2hippos.blogspot.com

Hope there is some calm mixed into the next couple of super-busy (yay!) weeks at the inn.

Happy Birthday!
I actually came over because I heard you are a Leo like me.
My birthday is later this month and I was 27 a very long time ago. But I have days when I still think I can do all the things I did when I was 19.

Happy Birthday!
