I was SO spoiled this year for my big 32!!! Usually I keep quiet and hope that everyone around me just forgets and lets it pass!!! Bah humbug, I don't like celebrating getting older:) I still didn't want a big celebration as I'm not keen on being centre of attention, but this year was the best I've ever felt! I have so much to be thankful for. I'm in the best shape of my life (despite having just had my daughter and being sleep deprived), my family is happy and healthy, I have an awesome support system of friends, we are paying the bills, planning for the future, and I've found such a great group of people online through my blog, facebook, twitter, pinterest, and instagram!!! (YAY #mompowerteam) The opportunities for 2013 are endless. Not to mention I'm on my way to completing my goal of competing in May....something I've wanted to do since my early 20's but never followed through with! I've never been so focused on my goals!!!
I ALWAYS say I don't want anything for my birthday....I'd rather spend the money doing something with my husband and daughter, like going on a family trip, etc. For the most part my husband listens to me, but this year he outdid himself!! He remembered me complimenting someone on their ring over xmas, (more than once) and he got me one similar with my daughter's birthstone in it. Such a thoughtful gift and this picture doesn't give it justice~!! I just got home from picking it up from being sized :)
Not only this, but he also insists that I go to the Monica Brant F.E.M Camp that I've been wanting to go to. (Either Kelowna or Toronto, we have to figure out childcare) This isn't necessarily my bday gift, as we will both be paying for it, but it makes me feel really special that he thinks I deserve it and wants to make it happen for me! He's in a band that has a big concert all weekend during the Kelowna Camp and he was willing to cancel just so I could go! (which I obviously won't let him do, but we will figure something out) I can't WAIT for this Camp, I think it will be the experience of a lifetime, I'll meet some awesome ladies and learn so much!!!
Immediately after I decided to go to this, Erica at sisinshape.com was contacted by THE Monica Brant and given a spot at the F.E.M Camp to #mompowerteam to giveaway!!! I'd LOVE IT if one of you won, and I could spend the weekend getting to know someone I've met through social media! It really is amazing!!!
