We Gonna Sip Bacardi Like It's Your Birthday!

Thank you 50 Cent for that great song lyric!

So it is true, today is my birthday and I am another year older and another year wiser, right?!

Do you love having birthdays?  I will admit that I do.  I love the hoopla, attention, gifts, cake and all the trimmings.  The bigger the better I say.
Not everyone is like that.  I have friends that rather the moment just pass quietly by or that get embarrassed or uncomfortable when it comes to birthday hoopla.

Which one are you?  Full on celebrate or quiet no frills?



A little pattern mixing going on here.
  I love argyle and think that the preppy-ness of it paired with this floral goes great together.
Pair the complicated patterns with a simple khaki pant 
and you got yourself an outfit.
HMM, wonder if people are beginning to notice that my obsession with pink is starting to creep into my wardrobe.
I tried to keep it under wraps for as long as I could.
Check out the soft pink necklace and earrings
A Birthday Gift!!


Don't forget to enter my give away!!

Happy Birthday. :) Oh yes, we love to make it last as long as possible in our family.

You look great in pink. I think it's a flattering color for most girls.

Happy happy birthday! I'm more of a quiet birthday person, although I can be both, depending. I think I'm secretly afraid that people won't have a good time if I have a party, so I don't!

Love your pink argyle! Pink is one of my favorite colors, too. And I love argyle, especially in vest-form!

Happy birthday...and wear all the pink you want. I, for one, as a person who likes a quiet birthday.

Happy birthday! Today's my daughter's birthday too. She, like you, is all about celebrating. She dresses up early in the morning,and she loves having people calling and visiting and throwing parties. I, on the other hand, would rather skip the day and wake up the next day with the new age. Getting older is not the problem, it's just the day that I hate. But when I turned forty I was really excited and wanted to celebrate it big and I did! But I still don't know how that happened. For my 41st birthday I was back into my old self, though.
