    I love that my B-day is this time of year. I get the right stuff. My daughter made my cake from scratch and all the decorations on it. The top is crushed oreos to look like dirt. The veggies, strawberries, hose, shovel and lady bug are hand made. Can you tell I was thrilled and very proud. Love the frog. I also got 10 Stella De Oro daylilies and 2 ruby slippers dwarf oakleaf hydrangea from mom and a gift certificate to Brent & Becky's from hubby. And 100 fresh clams that we ate all day, I don't have enough left for chowder. I'm stuffed and ready for a nap. This b-day thing is exhausting. And I'm to OLD.

    Happy Birthday Donna, no you are never too old. Being exhausted is just being exhausted and having a nap is a treat. Get that nap and get ready to party again!!!

    Those 100 fresh clams ... yum!!!

    Happy, happy birthday Donna! Sorry I'm a bit late! I love the welcome frog :) The crushed oreos on the attractive cake are a great idea.
