Growing up, my grandmother always asked for practical presents, and that always bothered me. I thought it was boring. You can get dishtowels and new appliances any day of the week, but birthdays are for fun gifts! It's a day all about you, get whatever you want!
But now I get it.
This year for my birthday I got:
a steam cleaner (I really needed it!)
a patio swing (which was really for Jackson apparently, but I love it too)
and a sewing machine!
I love all of my presents, but when I tell people what I got* they tell me I'm getting old! Honestly though, there just wasn't anything else that I wanted. Yes, I asked for a steam cleaner for my birthday. Actually, I went to the store, bought it, came home and said, "Hey baby, look what you got me for my birthday!" LOL
Now I'm gonna go steam clean my carpets (I've got family coming into town in a few days), and then play on my sewing machine for awhile. I hope everyone has a great day!
*You didn't think I would wait until my actual birthday to open all of my presents did you?








10 love me:
Happy Birthday to You!! Hope your days is a great one. I so can relate to the presents..It's like when we want something we get the things that benefit everyone. I got a shampooer for my birthday..lol

Hope you had a GREAT birthday! What awesome gifts, I would LOVE a steam cleaner, and a new sewing machine, what kind did you get? Enjoy! :)
Those sound like great presents to me. But I may be getting old. ;) I would love to get a sewing machine. First I might need to learn to sew. ;)
Hope you have a wonderful bday!
