First, it started to snow.
Then, it started to stick.
Then, Ben built a tiny snowman :)
Now, we have 2-3 inches of snow (just guessing) and we're waiting to see if tomorrow is a snow day.
And this past week, my sweet hubby celebrated his 54th birthday with his loving family. Only one more year until he can get the senior discount at IHOP. Woohoo! :)
I got his cake this year at Cakes by Sara, here in Tyler. I had tasted her cakes twice before and they were wonderful. This weeks b-day cake was no exception - it was yummy delicious. And she added lots of extra icing like I asked, for the b-day boy. I highly recommend her cake shop if you're in the East Texas area and need a cake - or cookies, which are also yummy good.
My birthday was this month, on the 10th. It just happened to fall during spring break so my son and hubby were both at home because hubby took vacation time. They made me breakfast in bed - although I'm sure my Dh did most of the work. But anyway, I still got french toast and bacon. YUMMMM! And then later, they took me out to eat for dinner and when we came home, we got to eat the Italian Creme Cake that Dh made for me. It was yummy good. Here is a picture.
Pay no attention to the number on top. That is obviously wrong as I'm really only 24. Someone must have been making a sick joke. ;) That's my story and I'm sticking with it!
And the lovely roses that they brought home for me. My son says he picked the color. It was a good birthday. (except for the getting older part)As far as a birthday present, my DH didn't exactly get me one. Instead he said he would give me money to put towards the sewing machine I want and need. I was very excited about that as at the time, I was looking forward to the Arts and Crafts show I was scheduled to do on the 20-21st (this past weekend). I always do really well at this particular show, so I just knew I would have a huge pile of money to use for my new sewing machine. So, of course I started looking them up on the internet and dreaming about one that does fancy embroidery, etc.But alas, I didn't go to the show because, why? why? IT SNOWED!!!! AGAIN!!! Can you believe it? All day Saturday the temperature steadily dropped and it rained ALL DAY and then Sunday, it snowed ALL DAY!Will this winter never end????????The Parks Dept. that sponsors the show does not give refunds or anything for bad weather but they are going to try to reschedule it. I don't know if it will be worth it though. The Azalea Trails brings in alot of tourists and lookers who all stop at the Arts and Crafts festival in the park but withough that, I think it would be pretty dead.So, :( to my new sewing machine. I've just been listing things like crazy on etsy but I think I'm going to be stuck with my basic old sewing machine that only sews when it wants to, for awhile. Sigh.
