Birthdays are my favorite.
Tuesday night, i decided it was long due for putting some color back into my hair. Time for some light auburn red color!
Then off to bed I went. I woke up on birthday morning with my phone beeping with text messages, facebook posts, tweets, phone calls, and voicemails! Such a wonderful way to start my morning! I walked downstairs, there was a super sweet card from my roommate (THANK EM!), and our friend who was staying with us this week, told me there was a package that arrived for me. I wasn’t expecting anything (or so i thought– my brain was blank haha). I walk into the kitchen to find……..
Thank you, Chobani, for the wonderful and delicious samples! Blog post coming later after i eat them all
I showered, got dressed, went to meet mom for Mass and for getting ashes. Church was awesome as always. Then we went to visit my maternal grandparents, Momo and Honey Boy! They’re really awesome. On April 18th, they will celebrate their 63rd wedding anniversary!!! Pretty amazing people
They’re so precious, or as we would say SHAAAAAAA.
Afterwards, mom brought me home. I had a little rest and FB and twitter time. Then went to mom’s house to help with my birthday dinner and dessert prepping.
Dinner was already ready! YUMS!
It was time to start getting ready my cake
I made strawberry & blueberry angel food cake
YUMS!!!
Dinner was grilled shrimp with Roumalade sauce, Zucchini and Asparagus Salad, with rice dressing / Jambalaya healthy combo with whole grain rice with small amounts of chicken! SO GOOD!

Mom wanted to try some of MY new lotion that she gave me for my birthday.. but i knew she wouldn't give it back if i let her try it! Oh, and apparently we make the same faces =)
the wonderful faces of blowing out the candles =)
What a great day it was! I plan on continuing to celebrate my birth for the rest of the week and month =)
In Honor of my birthday, here’s a preview of Brittany in photos:

It made me a bit sad though I miss my grandma she was the only person who made it a point to celebrate my birthday every year with a cake and candles etc.
