Special Occasions

My 28th Birthday!
I love October- pumpkins, fall weather, football gatherings, chili, candy corn, & my birthday!
My parents always threw parties for our birthdays,
so we're keeping the tradition alive by celebrating each of our special days together.


My parents gave me these goodies: "M"/polka dot Christmas ornament, Aromatique Summer Sorbet potpouri & candle (it smells incredible and reminds me of my college roomate, Jeanine), fuzzy socks, lotion, and grape bubblegum- I loved this gum and none of the stores have it around here. My parents went on a little road trip last week and stopped in like 20 places to find it!
So sweet.

My wonderful friend, Anna, gave me this beautiful pottery (Etta B).

My other wonderful friend, Meg, gave me this adorable painting.
It's already hanging in my kitchen.

My dad, mom, sister, daughter, and me (Ron took the picture:).

My mom & sis

I made one of my favorite dips for our get-together: spinach dip.

Brittany made these INCREDIBLE chocolate covered, peanut butter, and Ritz cracker cookies!
Get the recipe HERE:

Anna & Meg took me to dinner at a Japanese restuarant, and we sat there and talked for hours.
