More from my birthday

 I got a beautiful bouquet delivered to the house. They were from Presley


I actually took a ton of pictures of the different flowers but I'm only going to post this one.

The day after my birthday, Amanda and I went out to lunch and to Hobby Lobby and the mall.

Lunch was at Cracker Barrel and was really good. I had chicken fried chicken and hash brown casserole.

Would you believe we didn't buy anything in any of the stores we went in. We even walked out of Hobby Lobby with nothing. I did take a couple pictures of things for possible craft ideas.


My final celebration was lunch out with an old friend on Tuesday March 25th. We went to Hanako in Conneaut Ohio



This was the first time I have ever been to a Japanese restaurant and the food was fantastic. I ordered Hibachi chicken and shrimp. It came with rice and onion soup. 

And that concludes the month and my birthday celebration.

I am finding inspiration in things other than hand drawn things, like that black and white blouse. you had a super week of birthday fun and with Amanda and friends and LOVE Presleys gift. is the lamb something you can sit out year after year?

Oh how sweet that you got flowers from Presley and they are so pretty. That is awesome. I'm glad you had a nice birthday. I went to Hobby Lobby last week and picked up cardstock. I looked around but didn't buy anything else. I think I'm at the stage in life where I'm wanting stuff out of the house, not bringing more in. Enjoy your Monday.

It sounds like you had a delightful month of birthday celebrations. Time with friends and family make special memories.
Good for you on not buying the stores out..(:0) Sometimes it is so hard to resist but taking photos of suggestions for projects is a great idea.
