Me and the Beatles

You say it's your birthday/ It's my birthday too, yeah/ They say it's your birthday/ We're gonna have a good time/ I'm glad it's your birthday/ Happy birthday to you/ Yes we're going to a party, party /Yes we're going to a party, party /Yes we're going to a party, party /I would like you to dance (birthday)/ Take a cha-cha-cha-chance (birthday) /I would like you to dance (birthday) /Ooo, dance, yeah I would like you to dance (birthday) /Take a cha-cha-cha-chance (birthday) /I would like you to dance (birthday)/ Ooo, dance/ You say it's your birthday /It's my birthday too, yeah /They say it's your birthday /We're gonna have a good time/ I'm glad it's your birthday /Happy birthday to you /Happy birthday to you (Lennon/McCartney)

That being said, today is my birthday! I am 33 today. My Mom always told me that spectacular things happen in your double digit years (11, 22, 33 etc). Let's think...well, when I was 11, I got my first period...I guess that was exciting back then...little did I know... Hmm, 22? Graduated from university...got engaged...hey, maybe she was right.

At any rate, I am hoping that this is a lucky year as well. Follow along with me in the BLOG this year and we'll see what happens, eh?

Whenever it is someone's birthday, the first thing I want to know is what presents they received. So, in case you are also this sort of person, let me enlighten you. From my Dad, I got a gift certificate for American Eagle. From my in-laws, cash (always fits perfectly!). From my brother Mike, 4 bottles of Pop Shoppe Black Cherry Cola (AWESOME) and the first volume of Davey and Goliath on DVD. My sister-in-law made me a lovely dinner and gave me a beautiful bouquet of flowers. My brother Tommy sent a card(by previous agreement, we only get presents for each others' kids) and my brother Paul (God bless him) will probably remember my birthday in January and get me a sweater that would look great on a Grandmother.

From my hubby and kiddies: the new Outburst game and dinner and a show for Sunday night! I don't know what the show is yet, but I'll let you know!

Next Thursday is my b-day dinner with the aunts and cousins, so I'll update after that as well. Yeah, I'm spoiled!

Oh my gawd, 33. I was trying to remember how young you were going to be today, so thanks for letting me know! Isn't blogging fun. I'm having such a great time with mine, and enjoyed reading yours just now.
