People who know me know I love hard. I fall hard. I love being in love. I love saying I love you, I like you, I adore you. I am just that person who will always say I love you first, offer a hug first, go in for the kiss first…that’s just who I […]
Filled with sugar-encrusted donuts, food galore, silly little hats and an unexpected surprise! Felt like one giant bear hug that left me grinning from ear to ear. I remember when birthdays used to suck. This one, not so much. It pretty much rocked. Woo-hoo! Here’s to a great 3-2!
