Birthdays Then and Now

Do you think birthdays are better as an adult or when you were a child?

For me, I don’t have any birthdays  from when I was growing up that stand out as “the best birthday ever!!”

When I turned 40 Chris and the boys planned a big surprise party for me (the only surprise party I’ve ever had:) – it was such a fun time!!!

Well, Chris got a birthday card the other day that made me start thinking about the differences between birthdays then and now.  Mostly thought, I just want you to get to enjoy the fun of the card!

Remember birthdays when you were still a kid?

Remember how much fun that was?

Well, that ship has sailed.  Now sit down before you fall down and have a happy birthday!!!Screen Shot 2014-08-21 at 9.30.38 PM

HaHa – this just made me laugh!!!  I think it might be implying that Chris is getting old!!!   😉

Happy Fun Friday!!
