I am blessed with thoughtful family and friends...
I tried to capture some of the gifts I received...THIS MAC compliments of my husband's supportive nature....
A lovely hanger from my daughter that I've admired many times at Pier One (and she chose it on her own)
I got dollars from Ma n Pa - yes, they still do that for a 49 year old - and I spent some on a book in Sante Fe that I thought was PERFECT for my art - Pictoral Webster's....and magazines - this one features one of my fave artists that I follow...and probably you do too...Diane Salter - so thrilled she was published in this edition...
And Just Look at this beautiful piece handmade by my pal....
So perfectly detailed and personalized... she had a whole theme in store for my yummy bday lunch with her.....
GARDENS...which we both share a love for....
I don't want to give too much away, for she will soon be opening her very own etsy shop...
and sharing her one of a kind pieces.....
I keep encouraging her to start a blog and share her talents....
But regardless, I love my bday treasures, my family, friends and think 49 is going to continue to be a GOOD year!

Oh 49 for real? Well Happy Birthday. Very nice treasures.
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BIRTHDAY TREASURED ONE! AND...remember this...you have reached a magical time in your life...i know this, because i turn 62 on monday :). around this age of 50, when you speak with this age group, most, agree that life is so much better in so many ways. i could go on and on and mention that it would be nice to have some of that youth back etc. but, truly, with this gift of time, you shall be glad to embrace it baby! that's my little (tidbit) of a birthday wish for you. xo
