Birthday Giveaway

I know I just celebrated my birthday, but I thought it'd be fun to give you a gift.  Sooo...

I made another pair of earrings.


Okay.  I'll be honest.

I made four more pairs of earrings.

And I'm giving away two.   (Aren't they pretty?)



That's right!  Two lucky readers will get a pair of fun beaded earrings as an early (or late) birthday present from me to you.

Favorite birthday memory is my 16th with a friend @ Beaverton Red Robin. They had a ballon artist there so we wore HUGE ballon hats. Great memory!

Hmmm, I'd have to say so far my favorite birthday memory would have been my most recent birthday! My loving husband arranged a babysitter and took me shopping for the day! After being spoiled we then went to dinner child-less at my favorite restaurant The Cheesecake Factory!!! We had a awesome meal and drinks followed by amazing Cheesecake!! Then the next day surprised me with a birthday dinner with all my friends! It was awesome and cry thoughtful! <3 looking forward to next year and my "dirty thirty" cruise!!!! :)) happy birthday again Mandy!

I'd have to say my favorite birthday memory would be my 30th, we went to Boston, walked the Freedom Trail in the morning, ate lunch in the North End, and saw the Angels beat the Redsox at Fenway in the evening. Talk about a great day : )

I think my favorite would have to be going to Vegas for my 30th... saw Dave Matthews at the MGM and saw the Tournament of Roses, on of those Medieval Times dinners. So funny and fun. All this while my in-laws were back at home with Jackson. So fun!

I love remembering my seventeeth birthday. It was my "royal" birthday and I got 17 mylar balloons (I collected them back then) and my crush came to my party. He ended up becoming my hubby :)

On my 10th birthday, which was also my golden birthday, I got to get my ears pierced. I had been looking forward to that day for about 10 years. :-)

My favorite birthday memory was my last birthday. It is my first birthday as a mommy and I loved spending the day with my beautiful daughter.

One of my favorite birthday memories was when I celebrated my birthday in Japan with my students and their families. They sang Happy Birthday in Japanese and bought a beautiful cake.

My favourite birthday memory is actually my 15th birthday. I had just moved countries and was quite sad obviously. I felt i had no friends where i lived. But mum organised a surprise party thing for me. I went to the hairdressers and there were a whole bunch of people there:) we all got our hair done together and then all went out to dinner. i didn't realise that so many people considered me as a friend, it was really special:)

My birthdays are usually always good! I enjoyed my 16th though the most because, I spent it with my family.

Let's see, I guess my 5th BD. Loved the anticipation while waiting for my friends to arrive! A great cake (now I am a "pie person"), good friends and family......what else could you ask for?

The best birthday I ever had was a few years ago, when I was 22. We went out to a bar after a crazy weekend in Toronto seeing Damien Rice and ended up partying with several members of an NHL team. It was ridiculous.

(These REALLY ARE beautiful ;-) . Two happy birthday memories -- one is a giant, green alligator cake that my mom made for me when I was little. The 2nd was recent --just a beautiful day with my husband...him at my disposal, after a not very good year. Loved it! :-)
