The End of The Birthday Curse?

They Call Me Red: GREAT WEEKEND!: "After a shower, a bit of cleaning, and some salsa making our friends #1 and his wife came over for dinner. Hubby made an excellent meal of tacos. They were so good. It was also a lesson for him due to the fact that he never cooks and had no idea where certain items were in the kitchen. It was funny though; Hubby repeativly said that he did not need any help with dinner which I happily complied with. It was only after he had finished the meat, the beans and corn had been heated up and the lettuce torn, that Hubby looks at me and said that I forgot to tell him to make the rice. To which I replied that he asked for no help. Telling him to make the rice would have been helping. He of course took that comment of mine as a joke. You've just got to love that guy.

After dinner they sang happy birthday to me and we all had cake and played card games into the night. Overall it was a great birthday. Surrounded by friends and my hubby, what more could I ask for?"


She blogged for three days on her anxiety over this birthday and what did she get? One of her best birthdays ever.

It started with a sleepy "Happy birthday" from her hubby at 5:45 a.m. and included Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. NOT a bad birthday. Yay!

Splish, Splash I Was Taking A...Birthday Party!

'Tis but a flesh wound: Jonas and Madeline's...: "Jonas and Madeline's...
...birthday party at The Wave Pool, Waterford Oaks Waterpark http://www.co.oakland.mi.us/parksrec/ppark/waterford_wp.html

I actually took a day off from work and had some fun.

Had about 20 or so people and we had a great time. I went out and grabbed 7 Hot N Ready's, 2 - 10 piece buckets of KFC and a sheet cake from Costco (which does not open until 10am by the way). I also had to pick up some more ice so I stopped by the 7 Eleven grabbed some ice and availed myself of a Cherry Slurpee

Another wonderful occasion to get Madeline, Elias and Sophie together again. They are just hilarious, especially when we got them all in the Wave Pool. Got some video and lots of pictures. At the end of the day I had both Madeline and Elias in the inner tube with me and it was hilarious. It's just gonna get better as these kids get older... Had a great day."


I don't know who turned a year older, but this super-pool party sounds like a wet and wild time. No muss, no fuss food and great people enjoying the water sounds like a perfect way to celebrate in hot summer weather.
