There Were Only 24 Candles in the Box, I Swear!

 

We had a wonderful time in Palm Springs for my 40th birthday this past weekend.

Dave rented a gorgeous place with a pool and a hot tub, and we spent the weekend relaxing, sleeping in, going for coffee and yes, the three of us ate that whole cake! It was mostly fruit and sponge cake, or so I keep telling myself.

Also, I have been wanting to buy a digital SLR camera for a long time now and with birthday contributions from various family members, I was able to order my Canon Rebel XTi and a 50mm lens last week. It arrived in time to take away with us.

So, here you are. This is what the morning after 40 looks like!

By the way, if you have a milestone or special occasion you’d like to tell us about, email me (at editor@eluckypacket.com) and send a few words and pictures to share with other readers!
