We've just got back from a wonderful weekend away - two adults.....no kids. I have to be honest - it was fab.
Pre birthday(s) celebrations.
The man of the house celebrated yesterday and today......
it's my birthday!
What can I say?
I'm forty - big *sigh*
So far it seems OK - on the other side.....that is.
I've so much to show - so much to say, but it is my birthday (right here, right now) today so I'll save it all up for another time another space.....I hope that's OK?
{just a few pictures to share via my phone}
Please feel free to indulge in as much cake and champers as you like today.

Happy, happy birthday Nina! There's nothing to being 40, and I should know - I've been through a whole decade of 40 something and now on my 50's. Don't let it depress you, you ARE young at heart :o)

ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to you dearest Nina. You know whatever age it says on paper you're always the one you want in your head. I'm still mid 30's in mind, spirit, but not body.
ReplyDeleteWish I could see your lovely outfits people mention. My laptop only ever shows a few random pics of each blog.
