Since we weren’t able to take a mid-Winter holiday (vacation) this year, we decided to take the week of my birthday off anyway just to putz around and enjoy each other’s company (oh, and to spoil me rotten). For me, the week was about relaxing, chilling out and just not going to work. We started off with a spa treatment at Isis in Newmarket and I ended with a small cold the last few days. Not to worry, it didn’t ruin a thing. All in all, Holming made some amazing meals and we really enjoyed our week off.
I didn’t expect much more from my birthday, but was surprised by all the fuss I received. Because of the time difference, it felt as if I received birthday greeting and wishes the entire week. Every day I received phone calls, cards or gifts from my favourite family and friends. Some people, who I did not think would do anything for me at all, surprised me by doing something unexpected for my birthday. I am humbled and bless to have so much love.
The photo below is of some of the treasures I received on my special day. What’s not in this photo are the earlier gifts Holming gave me (see my picasa birthday album), the book voucher from my sister-in-law which has been spent and the beautiful lunch that was gifted to me from Holming’s Uncle.
