My 27th birthday was a beautiful disaster. After an emotional day of crying and screaming and confusing my dear husband we went up on the roof to watch fireworks and drink sparkling cider. He made me a cake that he baked in two caserole dishes. It was lopsided and funny looking, but all I could see when I looked at it was his efforts to make it a good day for me, and it worked. I'm not sure I'll ever be okay with my birthday at least not while we are here away from my family and twin sister, but he managed to make me laugh while I cried and for that gift, I will always be gratefull.

I should tell you that I made him wear the apron under protest. :)

I do love the pic. The hair is so perfect for you.

I'm sorry the b-day was not perfect, but I do hope the year will be.

Thanks Ladies! I wrote a reply earlier, but have no idea where it went.
I'm still getting used to the hair, but I think I almost like it.
Aola, you made me laugh!
