I have been super busy and have no eye candy for you (SHOCK!!) I plan on stamping today though, and getting a week’s worth of stuff (and assignments done) completed because I have a crazy week of field trips, Kindergarten enrollment, dance recital rehearsal and recital, baseball practice & games, and Mother’s Day stuff to wrap up.
Anyway time to announce my Birthday MYTIME MAIL!! I told you I will draw the winner’s via www.random.org
Well I felt #1 should be whomever was #30! Its only fitting, don’t you think?
WINNER #1
30. Lynn |
Happy Birthday Lauren. I’m so happy that you have takent the time to reflect on your life so thoroughly…decade birthdays tend to do that to us. It’s true when they say that Life Begins at 30…it’s a time when we become more comfortable with ourselves, and believe me when I say that life really does get better with time. Thanks for sharing your reflections with us!

Happy 30th, Lauren!
I’m subscribed to your blog and read it everyday … even if I don’t post everyday, LOL! Your ‘list’ is full of wisdom and experience … are you sure it’s not your 40th?!?
One thing I’ve learned is that the older you get, the wiser you become … and not just wiser, but more tolerant. When you’re young, everything is black or white. As you age, you realize that nearly everything is in the gray area!
Oh. And to love unconditionally!
Happy wishes for another 30 years of love, laughter, inspiring and sharing! You rock, Lauren!
~Hugs, Deb

Thank you to each and every one of you for visiting, the b-day wishes, and some who have been trying the sketch. Most importantly sharing your thoughts/wisdom & experiences with me.
It really has brought even more insight to my life.
Now I will share the Smilebox! This is much more fun & easy to share my photos
Make a Smilebox slideshow |
Here is a Smilebox with photos for my 30th Birthday! WOW I had a blast.
We got up, Jason made me my favorite breakfast-home made waffles with raspberry caramel sauce! YUM!!!
He them took me to Jacques Bakery, where I picked out some gourmet desserts, in place of my Birthday cake! Well worth it!
In the Smilebox you will only see 4! I ate 3 before thinking to take a photos! LOL! With Jay’s help of course 😀
He took me to shop for stamping stuff! YEAH!
We then stopped in Manchester to get Greek Vegetable platter! I LOVE greek food, and we have nothing like that where we live here. So I was able to have that Sunday, after my b-day!
We then went to dinner at Newicks where I got my Lobster!! It was delicious! I haven’t had it in like 6+ years!!! You don’t get much out of that shell! But I was full from pastry anyway.
Funny thing was when the waitress asked how old I was my immediate response was going to be 23! LOL! I have felt 23 since I turned 23. It was a happy year for me. I met my husband and life turned a happy corner. So I am going to forever be 23!
I got money for my CKC shopping trip, a headless set for my cell phone (now I need one for the house!), Some perfume by Britney Spears called Fantasy (WOW! Smells amazing), body wash/lotions and stuff, hair care things. I know Im forgetting a few things.
My mom sent me 2 handbags-which Amber quickly claimed as hers! Shopping money-which I bought my bed set with, a book on the year I was born! So cool! Gas only 0.67 a gallon!! 3 shirts, amazing hair care products, 2 butterfly silver necklaces, gift card to Dunkin Dounts, and I think Im forgetting something! LOL!
Jason’s grandmother sent me flowers! So pretty!!!
I got gift cards from friends to TGIFridays, and a Spa!! I also got a beautiful necklace, soaps, gourmet chocolates, coffee (HEHEHE), a scarf, a Frame from Sue (one of my readers). Jay’s mom made me 2 beaded anklets.
I have some other stuff coming too. Its just running late. My dad’s gift will be here Wednesday. HMMM! HE said Ill be really surprised.
I bought myself the Beautiful Butterflies set from Unity Stamps. I REALLY wanted it, so I splurged on it.
So that is all my friends. Thank you again for the responses and emails, ecards and all of it. Im still sorting through a lot of it! LOL!
OH don’t forget-my article on the Craft Critique-HERE! If you wanted to know more about the Punch Bunch punches, there you go!! I got more for my birthday too 😀
OK Im off to stamp land!
Till tomorrow!

Hi Lauren,
Congratulations on your bday! Seems like you had a wonderful day… pretty cool…LOL 🙂
Glad you had a wonderful birthday!
We had a great time at dinner! Thank you for not squirting your lobster at me LOL! Wishing your 30’s hold as many blessings as your 20’s did!
Enjoyed your pics and it sounds like you had a wonderful birthday weekend with lots of lovely gifts, so glad it was a special time for you! Love your punch flowers too!
Can you say SPOILED!!!! I’m glad you had fun and you deserve it all!!!
Have a great day. Just read your review and good job!
I was up at 5am to make “Fresh Garden Omelet” and go to the school “Teacher Appreciation Week” and set up for the breakfast. I’ll need to go clean up in an hour…off to the treadmill.
I’m so glad you had a great birthday. I was just the other day explaining to my 6 year old that yes, I am 25, and yes on my next birthday I’ll be 25, and on the one after that, too. You see, women pick the age they liked most and just stay there. I think she just decided to give up on that discussion – LOL. My 8 year old caught on though, when he asked my daughter how old she was and she said 21 and then I said I’m 25. He says “but, Sissy is 21? How can you be 25?”
Rambling, but what I’m saying is “HAPPY 23rd!!!!”
😉
Woohoo!!!
Thanks so much Lauren! I’ve been looking at these kewl stamps longingly for a while now … can’t believe that they’re actually coming home to live with ME! I promise, they’ll get plenty of lovin’!
I’m glad to hear you had a great b-day celebration … and how generous and sweet of you to give ME a present on YOUR birthday!?!
Thanks so much for all the inspiration and giggles … here’s to 30 more years of bloggin’ and creatin’!!
~Hugs, Deb
Happy Birthday.

Awesome birthday for an awesome lady!!! Loved the Smilebox photos, so fun…thanks for sharing! I’m so glad you had a good weekend, celebrating your big 3-0….enjoy it while you are still young! 😀 You probably WILL be forever 23, you have SO much energy!
Have a great week…so happy for you, you are at such a great place in your life! 😀
Oh my goodness you got a buttload of stuff but you totally deserve it! You do so much and I don’t know how you keep up…but you do! Amazing! Thanks for sharing the pics and all the details…it’s fun to read about it! Wish I was there! LOL!
Congratulations to all the winners enjoy your presents and of course the b-day girl probably enjoyed lots too.

Happy belated birthday, Lauren! Sorry I missed it:( My twins turned 2 on Sunday, but we had their party on Saturday so my MIL could make it! It sounds and looks like you had a FABULOUS birthday! I honestly enjoyed turning 30! Never really bothered me like it did some of my friends! After I turned 30 though, I swear I can’t remember how old I am! LOL! When someone asks me I have to think about it! Someone asked me not too long ago and I told them I was 34! My husband quickly said, “No you aren’t! You are 33!” Oh well!
Beautiful pictures of you and your family! TFS!
Congrats to Lynn Kat and Deb!!! Looks like your birthday was a blast!!! Your 20’s are wonderful, but your 30’s will be even better 🙂
Oooooooh, that sounds like SO MUCH FUN!!!
CONGRATULATIONS to Lynn, Kat, and Deb, enjoy your “stuff”.
I love the slide show…you are not only talented but VERY PRETTY, this is the first time I’ve really been able to see your face well.

I went shopping today and Jo-ann’s have new stacks. Not on sale but equalling cute. … & butterfly bloom. I can’t remember the whole name. Thought you may want to check it out. Glad you birthday went well. Gotta run more errands to do.
