Wordless Wednesday #9 - Birthday Cakes

Not so "wordless" today since it is my 33rd Birthday (WOO HOO!)and I thought I would take a little walk down memory lane. I happened upon these 3 photos of me as a child with my mother's homemade "themed" birthday cakes. I love how blond my hair was back then. However, not so crazy about the knee socks. Damn 70's. Oh and you gotta love the sofa behind me in that one too. Oh My! I may be older but at least I don't have furniture like that! Happy WW!




Check out my husband's guest birthday post if you have a minute - he's a pretty good new blogger!

And for more WW go to 5 Minutes for Mom.

  5. Happy Birthday!!!

    Oh my I have memories of those types of dresses and knee socks from my childhood as well. I also had hair clips that had beads on them in most of my old photos.

    Have a wonderful special day :)
