My Birthday

Yesterday was my birthday. It was such a wonderful day! 

First off I had my weigh in and I lose 3.2lbs! I was ever so pleased with that after last weeks STS and what a fab birthday present for myself! 

Then my lovely boyfriend gave me my present from him - a Kindle! Woop woop! This is what I have been after for months and months! So that made me very happy! 

Then I went to my Nana's house to set up for my Country & Western BBQ! It didn't start out too promising. Me and my boyfriend set up flags, bunting, posters and got the BBQ out and of course... it began to rain. So we rushed everything in, and then out again and in and out... and then the sun came out! Phew....

My family started arriving and I was so chuffed to find that everyone had made an amazing effort with costumes. My Uncle went as far as dying his beard for me! He even coloured in his tooth to look like a wild west cowboy! Everyone was wearing checked shirts, denim and cowboy hats... However my cousins topped it off! They came dressed as a horse! It was such a funny moment as I had definitely not expected this! It has been a running joke in my family that I wanted a horse forever and yesterday I got it - (see pic!) My cousins are awesome!

The BBQ was then started and everyone just had a great time! I didn't have much and yes I stayed in my points and no I did not have a blowout and no I did not have any of my cake - just because it is my birthday I did not think it was a good idea to have a day off etc... I am on this wagon and I ain't getting off! *218* days today! 

Then my whole family got down to it with line dancing and it was so funny. Everyone was such good sports and I got to listen to my favorite country music all day long!!!!!

After that I opened my presents and I was such a lucky girl! I got a lot of amazon vouchers, a cover for my kindle, money and clothes and pyjamas. I also got loads of Palmer's Cocoa Butter in various different forms which I had asked for. In fact I got everything that I asked for! So chuffed.

My party went from 1pm - 1am and I had the best day ever.

I went home, went to bed and to top my day off - wore size 12-14 pyjamas to bed.
