A Day of Celebrations

My birthday and the ten year anniversary of my and the Farmboy's first date. Practically a blind one, on my 30th birthday. And ten years ago, neither of us would ever have dreamt this is where we would be now.

So we celebrated.

Ice skating, as we did on that first date.


Some Anthro shopping.


A warm drink to refresh us.


A most delicious lamb chop meal at the Irish pub, washed down with a Woodchuck and some fabulous live Irish tunes.

Avatar in 3D.

A pink marshmallow s'more.


And wonderful, wonderful gifts from my boys.


The day couldn't have been any better.

I hope your day was a beautiful mine!
