It was a good day


I woke up to breakfast in bed and Nadia taken care of. It must have been a special occasion. And it was...my birthday. Yep, I'm 32 years old. Corey baked me a carrot cake (my favorite) and he got me a bicycle with a child's seat. Then we kinda just drove around Germany (this area anyways). Later that night we went riding. I haven't rode a bike since I was in middle school and I'm feeling it. My thighs are on fire! Nadia didn't like the helmet at first but once we started riding she got used to it.


Here's the carrot cake that Corey made for me. He tortured me by making it on Sunday and told me I couldn't have any until Monday. That cake was calling my name but I respected his wishes and wanted until Monday night. YUMMY!! Now the hard part is not eating it all in one weeks time.


Also my niece and nephews sent me a birthday card. They sent me the same card that I sent to my twin from Nadia. Last year we got the same card for each other and a couple of years ago we sent out the same Christmas cards. It's funny how that happens. I guess great minds do think alike. :) When I called them to thank them for the card, Jada responded, "What card? I didn't get you a birthday card". She really speaks her mind. She's only three years old but I don't think she is gonna let anyone run over her. They make being an aunt the next best thing to being a mommy!

I was trying to find a picture of my sister and I together but I don't have any recent ones. I guess we are always the ones behind the camera. Here are some pictures of us when we were younger.

All in all, it was a very good day. I look forward to celebrating many, many more!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DEAR KENYA
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!

Nadia has your eyes. My kids love it when I trail them on my bike. I cannot wait to get back into that.

My niece is like that also. She will speak her mind. She stared pretty young too! She'll be 4 this Xmas. I started hearing the stories since she were 2

I do hope you had a very enjoyable day!

Here's to many many more!

HAPPY BDAY, Kenya! Sounds and looks like you had an awesome one! I'm jealous of the bike! I have been wanting one as well.

Again, glad you had a HAPPY BIRTHDAY! :)
