Anyone have a fire extinguisher handy? My cake is on fire....
Today, I celebrate my 44th birthday! This is me celebrating back in the days of the caveman (as my son so sweetly noted...I'm in the stylish red plaid...)

I'm going to spend the day curled up with some good books, favorite music and quality family time. Irish Dancer Girl has planned a "surprise" party for me this evening. (Don't worry about how I know this....she's the one who whispered it to me yesterday...lol!) My Mom is preparing my favorite dish and IDG (aka Cat) is making the birthday treats. Teen Caveboy is serenading me with some music on his guitar. I might have to enforce the "It's My Birthday and You Will Play Board Games With Me" rule later too....(yes, Chilly...that includes you...and NO, I will NOT play Scrabble with you...clearly my vocabulary is much larger than yours and I do NOT appreciate being beaten by someone who uses 3 & 4 letter words like "quiz" and "what".....)
A little birdie told me that I am being treated to a breakfast outing so time to scrap the lounge~wear for something more appropriate for the public. Hope you all have a wonderful Sunday too!
What's your favorite way to celebrate your birthday?

Happy happy birthday, Dawn! Enjoy every second of it! *hugs*
I don't really have a favorite way to celebrate--we usually had a family get together when I was younger, but now CJ & I celebrate dinner together and I love that, too!
Happy Birthday! :)
I just turned 44! To quote John Mclane in "Die Hard"- "Welcome to the party, pal!"
LOL!
It is not all that bad, I guess.
Happy Birthday!
Awwwww ~ Happy Birthday!!!! ~ Today is my brother's birthday too.
:-)
I hope you have an amazing birthday, Dawn!
Happy Birthday to you! You look so much younger than 44. My day is coming up just behind yours. Way to be a scorpio in her 40s with me.
Your photo looks just like Cat!
Happy Birthday to YOU!
Mine will be coming up in a couple of weeks. Since I'm a single girl, the past few years I've celebrated in the company of my sister and her daughter. We'll do the same this year with a girl's night in watching chick flix and junk food. Can't wait!
Happy birthday, girlie! 44? Why, you're just a young 'un! Hope you have an absolutely fabulous wonderful memorable day.
Happy Birthday! Yours is the day before mine; we were meant to be friends.
Happy Birthday Dawn!! I'm 44 too...and I love it :)
I hope you have a fantastic birthday, it certainly sounds like you are.

Happy Birthday, my fellow 1965'er! Your birthday plans sound perfectly wonderful!
And I'm with you on the Scrabble. My husband can't spell for beans but manages to beat me every time in that game.
Have fun today!

Happy birthday! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and commenting :)
My b-day is Dec31, so we usually go to a party. It works for me!
I prefer to ignore my birthday usually. The only reason I even blogged about it this year is because it was a big one. I still look in the mirror and the image simply does not match the years...
Happy Birthday!

You are such a sweetheart that you deserve to win all your games when you play on your birthday. And I hope you did.
Feliz Cumpleaños and may more!
I love to celebrate with food and those I love.
My favorite way before kids to spend my birthday was a fancy lunch, shopping and a big party at night! How I feel like a day in my pajamas, and some cake with hubby, landon and Coco would be HEAVEN!
I'm late, but happy birthday!
