Early Birthday Fun!

My birthday isn't till tomorrow...but it worked out better for all of us to have a lil birthday party at my mom's this evening! We had good fun and nice conversation! It was a beautiful evening as well! Madelyn couldn't wait to give me the card she got me...the front of it is the pic above. (It's a pic of a boom box, if you can't tell) and then this is the inside.....

Oh my goodness.....I must be getting sooo old!!! They are making fun of "mix tapes"!!!! ROFL! I used to listen to those all the time in high school!!! We made mix tapes for cheerleading and just to listen to! This card just totally cracked me up because it is totally spelling it out....I am getting OLD! It would be like me giving my mom a card that says to "break out the 8-tracks" ROFL!!!!

My sweet farmer boy, Chris. He's just too cute. His personality just makes this outfit work for him. He is proud of it...and although I always say how much I hate his overalls...I actually kinda like them...hehe...don't tell him though!!!


Chris and me:

The flowers my sister and Madelyn got me! (M even picked out the balloon!!!)


A pic of all the stuff my sister got me for my birthday! Isn't it all great??? I love it!


And a couple pics of the gifts my mom and dad got me! More spatterware!!!! YIPPEE!!! Just adding it to my collection!!! I just love spatterware/enamelware! I use my spatterware for our everyday dishes and my Warren Kimble Americana dishes that I have, as our "good" dishes!


It was such a nice evening! :) I hope you are all having a super nice weekend!!! xoxo Thank you so much for all the kind birthday wishes you have all sent my way! I truly appreciate each one!!! :)

  3. Nice haul, girl! :D Love those spatterware dishes too! And I also have a set of Warren Kimble dishes! What a coinkydink! Mine are called Brandon House and have stars around the edges of the plates, and the saucers have different American flag on each of them, and the coffee mugs also have the different flags. I only use them for special occassions. they were expensive (for me anyway!) LOL!
    Have a great birthday!

  13. Wow! I love the enamelware. Red is gorgeous. I have several utensils in red. I see they sell it at several stores here locally now.
    Your hubby is adorable, as is Madelyn. Happy Birthday To You.
    p.s. I'm sure my kids are all older than you are. I have a 20 yr. old granddaughter! My baby is Sara over at Footballandfriedrice and she is 31.
    Doesn't really matter. I see we have similar interests and I love your blog.

  19. Happy birthday, Katy!! :D

    I see I'm a few hours too late, but maybe it's still before midnight where you live? *lol* (ehmm yeah, I know that technically does not let me off the hook!)

    Greetings from holland!

    p.s. Remember the fall thing? How I was making myself wait until September? Well, last saturday we were driving in the countryside and we passed by a stall of lovely......... pumpkins and gourds! And that did the trick.. *lol* Now the whole living room is covered in orange and reds and fruit and just looking all nice and autumny.... hahaha
