So here goes...
The big event this week was my younger brother's birthday, and in my family, we make a pretty big deal about birthdays, which I love. We have our silly little traditions like singing Happy Birthday really, really badly; raising a toast to the birthday boy/girl; and pretending we all have to go "find our wallets" when we go and get the presents. Birthdays always make me so happy and thankful to have a family like I do - one that will go out of their way to make your birthday a special day.
Other things making me happy this week:
♥ Eating the most amazing gluten and dairy-free chocolate cupcakes, which my brother's girlfriend made for his birthday
♥ Walking out of the house to the first warm morning all week this morning
♥ Seeing delicate daffodils and blossoms survive gale force winds that so many windows, trampolines and trees did not
♥ Having an amazing work out at the gym on Monday, which got rid of all my aches and pains for the week
♥ Going on a date with my sister last night, where, as usual, we acted like we hadn't seen each other in a year and talked non-stop
What's made you happy this week, friends?
