birthday celebrations

Yesterday, my co-workers brought me a piece of cheesecake with candles and sang happy birthday. During practice, the swim team sang to me as well!

Upon getting home, Ryan had built me a spice rack with new spice containers, and set up cute new frames. He got me some sweets and I got to make a wish with "26" birthday candles. I think I might just settle in at 26 and not continue to add years.

Birthdays always make me feel special, even if they're low-key. I got a lot of emails, texts and facebook greetings wishing me a happy birthday, which I appreciate so very much!! Thank you all for thinking of me on Dec. 3!
