Happy Birthday to ME!

Today is my birthday so I thought I'd share one of the easiest cake recipes I know. Since I found this recipe, I never bake any other cake. Oh, lazy me!

Take your favorite chocolate cake mix and pour in one bottle of Chocolate Slim-Fast. Just two ingredients! Mix well. You can bake in a sheet pan, cup cakes or traditional rounds. Just follow the baking directions on the box. This cake is super moist and delish. We usually pile whip cream on top and drizzle some chocolate syrup. Bake nuts in it, or sprinkle on top. Anything goes!

 Hope you have fun on MY special day!

Happy Birthday to Someone Special

Anyone can catch your eye, but it takes someone special to catch your heart. ~Author Unknown

This cutie is 28 years old today, though technically, being a leap year baby, he's really only seven. :) When Brian came into my life, he awakened my maternal instincts. His hugs and kisses made me want a little one of my own. So, I married his daddy, and we had the perfect little family.
Don't we look young?

What fun those years were, and boy, did they go by fast. I thank the Lord for you, Brian. You made my life special.

Chaney and Brian smiling behind their books.

You're all grown up now, but just as precious as that little boy who captured my heart. Happy Birthday! I love you.
