A birthday start

Well, today is my birthday. :-) I think 44 is a nice number and I might just stay with it for a few years. :-) I have had a lovely day, despite waking up with a nasty chest cold. 

I usually start something new on my birthday and spend the day stitching or knitting. I didn't want to break tradition, so I started Party Cakes by County Cottage Needleworks. I have had this chart in my stash waiting patiently for a while.
:-) I am enjoying the bright pinks of the piece. :-)

Can I just say that I am way done with winter? We are supposed to get another horrible storm starting in a couple of hours. Blah!  I am just hoping that we don't lose power. They are saying that we could get up to a foot of snow.
:-( Enough of that. Let's end on a happy note.
I was very blessed by my family and friends. I am smelling a yummy dinner cooking and looking forward to having some delicious cake. :-)
I hope that you are all having a lovely week.

Love, Heather
