BirTHIRTY Day!!!

It's my birthday alllll day!! I am one year older --- 30 to be exact. I can't believe it's here. WOW!!! Time flies when you're having FUN!!! My childhood birthdays were filled with family, friends, balloons, hats, pizza, cake, ice cream, games, presents, and goodie bags ... oh what fun!! Nowadays, my big girl birthdays entail ... the same essentials! Ha!! ! I really did have an ice cream party with my closets friends. Also, my family was SOOO sweet this weekend. Mamatella made me the delish cake and my in-laws, SIL, and BIL came in for the day. My sweet husband gifted me flowers and a wonderful date night. I believe everyone should get the chance once a year to close their eyes, make a wish, and eat way too much cake (I had THREE pieces: king cake, chocolate cake, and oreo cake - oink oink)!! Indulge a little today too!!! Xoxo-BLC
