I didn't do good enough to win anything but it was my first time entering a bracket in any big challenge like that so I am very pleased with myself. I can't wait to try it again next year. Though I didn't win that contest, I did win the bet that Rob and I had going.
It was my birthday on Friday and I had an excellent day. I went out in the morning and had a little Shelby time, being treated to a massage, pedicure and manicure. And I set up a deal with the lady who I always go to for massages where I am trading washing the sheets that go on the massage table for a free massage every month. I am so excited about that. I pick everything up once a week and she said there are usually about 4 loads to do. I do so much laundry already, I don't think I will even notice. Anyhow, the birthday was great. Here's a picture of my birthday cupcake.
It seems the photographer may have had his thumb over the flash when he took the picture. Oops. Then I tried to get a picture of all of us after this but the battery was dead. Oh well. I am still happy to get any pictures with me in them because I never seem to remember to do that.
We have been working around the house a lot lately, including out in the yard. Everything is blooming about 4-6 weeks earlier than usual so it is already getting crazy out there. Rob has had to mow 2 or 3 times already. My daffodils have all been done for a while and some of my tulips are already dying too. The lilacs are really the big surprise though- they are usually in bloom around Mother's Day and they are already blooming right now. I have to keep reminding myself to enjoy this weather and be glad that it isn't snowing still!
