The Big 4-0!

 The was year I turned the BIG 4-0!  To celebrate, Izzy designed and created my birthday cake.  The scene is all of us on a beach (crumbled cookies) with typical beach activities - Victoria is soon to be engulfed by a wave, Micah is playing in the sand, Izzy is buried face down in the sand and John & I are sunbathing.  Simply amazing from my 8 year old.
 The design which was hidden in her closet for days so I couldn't see it.

My gifts were well thought out form the children.  My favorite was this backpack.  I recently signed up for Spanish classes.  The kids thought I needed my own backpack since I too am going to school.  This was complete with pens, notebook and pencils.  Yes, I do take it to class.
With the kids at their father's on my actual birthday, John took me out to a Mooo, a steakhouse in Boston.  The food was great but overwhelming in proportions.  I tried something new as well... escargot!
