I can't wear earrings, and I'd much rather see them go to someone who can enjoy them :)<BR/><BR/>When I turned 21, I was kind of bummed out because I didn't have a lot of friends locally and nothing special was happening for my birthday. I mentioned this in passing on the bead forum I was part of, so my friends all got together behind my back and "showered" me, which was our slang for sending someone lots of beads on a set date, so they'd all arrive around the same time. Some of the packages just had one or two little things, some had a lot of beads, some even had lampwork made just for me. It was very touching and totally made my birthday!AJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09398414928556655066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4178084072917965853.post-30021503774249499562007-10-03T12:56:00.000-05:002007-10-03T12:56:00.000-05:00Happy birthday!!

I am sure there are loads of younger b-day memories but I seem to not be able to remember them (other then the fact that my cousin and I got a joint party because our brithdays were only a few days apart. Hmpfh.) But my 30th birthday was memorable because I had broken up with my boyfriend a few months before and I was pretty sad about it but we were still sort of friends so I invited him to the party which was at a club. It was a great birthday and at the end of the night he told me he missed me and made a HUGE mistake ending things and would I please please take him back. Well I did and now 4 years later we're happily married. :)<BR/><BR/>The earrings are gorgeous! Sorry I haven't been visiting in awhile, things got a bit nutty over here LOL<BR/><BR/>xoxoxoxoRebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17506674078559549815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4178084072917965853.post-16799054011456043922007-10-02T22:48:00.000-05:002007-10-02T22:48:00.000-05:00My favorite birthday was my 22nd - my husband took...My favorite birthday was my 22nd - my husband took me to San Francisco and proposed!

She had bought a plastic toy bowling set and arranged it on the front sidewalk and we all took turns "bowling". Mom took lots of pictures that day - but my absolute favorite is an action shot of me bowling, while wearing a long dress. I think my tongue was even poking out because I was trying so hard... apparently I really wanted to nail those pins! <BR/><BR/>I think it's the long dress that makes me laugh the most... ah, the 70's!<BR/><BR/>Thanks so much for reminding me of my favorite birthday memory : )<BR/><BR/>What's yours?Jenn Maruskahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16800602220935580556noreply@blogger.com
