Happy Birthday....

... to ME!!!
Well, I figure I'll make the best of it. Nothing I can do about it, right? Might as well absorb the attention I am entitled to today. Hey, free lunch, free cake and ice cream (that I can eat without guilt since it is part of having a birthday), cards, presents, etc.

I can't passively say, "I'm in my twenties" when asked my age anymore. It worked when I was 29!

Does this mean that I'm officially an adult now, and need to act like one? Dang it!! LOL!!

Well anyway, I'm gonna party like it's my birthday.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I want to take a moment to give some props to a lady that makes the most amazing looking cakes! I WANT THAT CAKE FOR MY BIRTHDAY!

Festive Kitty

This necklace certainly defines cute!

This super cute kitty lampwork bead was handmade by Karen Milmine. I brought out the colors in the lampwork bead with matching Swarovski crystals in burgundy and glass seed beads in teal. Riverstone gemstones were also used in the necklace.

It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas...
