I love this day!

Today is my birthday. 
October 18. 
I love everything that goes with it. 
The roundness of the O and the 8, the smell of crisp fall leaves, colder days, hot cocoa, pumpkin patches, Halloween... you know what I mean.

Here are the cupcakes my kids and mom made for me while my honey took me out antiquing yesterday. 



Funny thing, we went to some of the most amazing spots to find goodies and didn't buy anything. 
And then it hit me...

I have all I need right here, my family who loves me. 
There really is no better gift than that.

Happy Birthday to me!
