It’s that time again….time for another birthday. They sure roll around fast these days. Today is MY big day and I’m planning to go on a little Christmas tour of homes with a couple of friends, so that will be just the most perfect way to spend my birthday that I can think of. And my hubby has some sort of surprise for me tonight. I think he’s taking me somewhere. I’ll let you know when I find out what it is! In the meantime….he sent me these beautiful roses….two dozen. And this…let’s just get this little bit out of the way in case anyone missed the news. My Auburn readers, you’ll just have to indulge me, after all it’s been 6 long years since we could claim this one. Look out Florida Gators, we’re coming for you today! ROLL TIDE!

Rhoda,
I gotta have this chandelier.
Its just perfect and it can go with just about any decor. How wonderful to find this gem.
It’s snowing here and has all day.
My hubby is gone and has the camera in the car. I want to take photos for those who don’t get snow. And happy birthday to you!

Hi, girls! Thank you ALL for the birthday wishes and for stopping by on this Sat. The home tour was of course, just wonderful. It was down in the Mountain Brook and Forest Park area of town, which has the most beautiful old homes you can imagine. Unfortunately, they won’t let us take pics, so I can never share them with you. You’ll just have to imagine all the real swags of greenery, bows and gorgeous Christmas decor. All in beautiful OLD and stately homes. So fun! My design friend, Mary ended up going with us, so there were 4 of us. She and I went to the tea at the IPC church after the tour, which is always a treat too. Homemade goodies from the ladies of the church, along with coffee. A perfect way to end a Christmas tour!
Someone asked where the Lovelady thriftstore is. The Lovelady Center where I’m doing some volunteer work also has a thriftstore on site. That’s where I found the chandy! They are on the East side of B’ham.
Still don’t know where our date will be tonight. Hubby is watching the BIG game right this minute, so I’m hoping we WIN! I’ll fill you all in on Monday. I think it’s a Christmas concert of some sort and it should be fun! See you Monday….
