Bianca's Birthday, Continued

Although we had a special celebration for my birthday over the weekend, we still celebrated on my actual birthday!

I had to work that morning, but I arrived at work to a sweet birthday surprise. J Cupcakes, cake balls, a sweet card, a new mug, snickerdoodle coffee, and “Happy Birthday” sung to me by their family. I felt so special and loved! J

That evening, we celebrated as a family at home.

We had my favorite meal for dinner that night: homemade tomato soup with double decker grilled cheese sandwiches! We gave it southern flair by serving sweet tea with it. J By the way, that is birthday confetti on the table…we are not just messy eaters! J

For my birthday cake, I chose a spice cake served with peach sauce (recipe coming soon.) It reminded us of Michigan fall!

Then it was time for gifts!

My family blessed me with some great books, a study guide I wanted, a new movie, funds to purchase cowgirl boots and a new bike helmet, a Ugandan bracelet, and sweet cards. I am so blessed by my family!
