Birthday wishes

Today is my birthday and I am 31. It's just a number for me. Not really upset I am 31. I embrace each year I get older. Every year I get myself something for my birthday. Not saying my hubby or anyone else doesn't give me good presents. I do it because when I was a child my mom always made promises and broke them on my birthday. So I make a promise to myself to get myself something every year so I have something to look forward too. Usually I get make up at sephora or ulta. But not sure if that is what I will do or not.... Still deciding. I did get a bad present already this year but I am one of those that doesn't return gifts, only because the person did try to get my something they thought I would like but it isn't what I would get myself. The bad present was from my brother, he got me combat boots(which was my style when I was 16)and wedge heels that are not at all what I would choose. But I will wear them proud near him as to not offend him. I know I shouldn't keep something I don't like but he tried. As for the other gifts I will keep you posted on what I got. I did get some money from my in laws and Dale's grandma(our grandma, just too hard to write my grandma and explain). So the plan for today is to take kids to the splash park for a bit then maybe clean the house and later watch harry potter movies so I can catch up. My hubby wants to cook me dinner. I think I will teach him how to cook Tilapia tonight or shrimp scampi. This year I am very grateful for the people in my life and the things I have accomplished from the year before. My birthday wish is to have another great year of accomplishing things and having fun with good people.
