It's my birthday

It's official...this is what 39 looks like!

After dreading the coming of this day, it turned out to be OK. Here's how my day played out.......

Got to work this morning and had my own personal quartet singing "happy birthday". Got some great gifts from some incredibly sweet and generous people including: eye art, home-made cookies, a cookie bouquet, candles, candy, amazing orchids, and other fun stuff.
Had a little surprise in the conference room around 11:30 when I walked in to 3/4 of the Fabulous Foursome singing, more presents and the all important chocolate-raspberry birthday cake inscribed with "Happy Birthday Babbs". Pretty cool (and tasty!).
When I got home Tim had flowers and a beautiful diamond pendant waiting for me. The evening was capped off by a fantastic steak dinner and fresh baked spice cake with cream cheese frosting (all done by Timmy himself). Yes, I am on sugar-overload today! Terri and Jay came over for dinner and it was a great evening with family & friends. The perfect way to finish out a darn good birthday.

Thank you to all who celebrated with me and made my birthday so special !!!
