Monday Mingle Blog Hop Theme Post

mondaymingle

 This weeks theme: Birthdays
 1. When is your Birthday? January 13 2. Do you normally have a big party? No, my children don't live at home now and we often just go out to dinner. My mom, dad, and siblings all live in the USA. I only have my husband and kids living here in Melbourne. Now that my grand kids live close by this year we had a family picnic at a park. I loved having all my family around. 3. When are your SOs and kids birthday? Do they fall close together? Hubby's is Oct 16. Oldest's is Sept 11, Youngest is Sept. 24 April (he has 4 kids all under 6yrs old) Grandkids 4. How do you celebrate their birthdays? Hubby we go to dinner or have a family dinner here at the house will all the grandkids around or we go out for a quiet dinner. We often go out with our son's for dinner on their birthdays, something they don't often do for themselves as they are just starting out and don't have money to do anything special like take their families out for dinner. 5. If you could have one thing for your next birthday what would it be? I would love to have all my family for just one birthday. My father, mother, and siblings all live in the USA, I would love to have a birthday with all my family here in Australia and in the USA.

    Oh, I feel the exact way!!! Now that the kids are grown and two live out of town, I miss them so much and I always wish we could all be together on birthdays!! I don't fly, so that makes it even harder for me to get to see them. I have a grandchild as well but I only see her about once every 2 months. Your hubby's b-day is the day after mine. It's fun being a Libra! Glad you posted this, Tracy--nice getting to know you a little better!

    I love celebrating kid birthdays although we still keep it small and simple with mostly just the immediate family and grandparents plus the 1 aunt that lives close. I like to do themes too. Thanks for stopping by my blog yesterday and leaving a comment.

First Love, What inspires me

  Have you ever been somewhere, done something that make you say "Ahhh" and feel like spreading your arms out wide and dance a little happy dance?      I decided to take Saturday, last week, off from making all the Mother's day cards I have to make for a womens group I belong to.  I belong to a women's breakfast club and every year I make at least 20 Mother's day cards to sell to the group.  Some Mother's Day Cards I have been making         This past weekend, my husband and I went on our usual market scouting.  We went to Red Hill, Market,  Melbourne's, "Grand Dame"  of markets.  I have always liked to visit the craft markets to get creative ideas and to ensure what I am making is unique.  Of course I love to do my "grandma shopping" at the markets.  I think by buying handmade items at the markets I am supporting other artist  and I also like buying one of a kind items.  ...
