I haven’t been the greatest friend. Lynn has lived “close” to me for almost a year and I’ve only been to visit her once. We had a heart to heart and we agreed to do our best to see each other at least once a month from now on. So, a couple days after my birthday – here she was!! I felt horrible. This cold has been hanging around for a couple weeks now. I was run down and really dragging. In she walks with presents, lunch, a mini key lime birthday cake (YUMMY), stuff from her garden, canned goods – and a couple kids

So my kids played with her kids and she and I enjoyed some much needed girlfriend time. We laughed, we read magazines, we sewed, we cooked, we drank a margarita, we ate salsa and cake & ice cream of course!

The kids had a blast on the swing and the slip n slide. Lynn and I purchased the Zac Brown Band album off of Apple TV and took the outdoor speaker to the patio. It was nice to sit under the umbrella and watch the kids play for a minute listening to some new music!

Lynn opened her birthday presents. I made her what I’d like to call the iBake It is a reversible apron that has a tiny pocket on each side. Inside the pocket is a button hole. Her iPod or phone fits in the small pocket and the cord to her headset can go through the button hole (behind the apron) and up to her ears. This will keep that pesky cord out of her pancakes and bread!!

Then I opened my presents! It all had a lime margarita theme! Even the card! Imagine that!!! Handmade soap and lip balm. A beautiful card… and of course some margaritas! You’ll also see that she brought us some homemade salsa!!! Super yummy!

Little Miss Hannahbelle had a rough day. She was really cranky. Fortunately, Lynn hasn’t had a 2 year old for a couple of years, so she kinda liked holding a baby for a bit. And from the looks of it Hannah kind of liked it too

And my birthday cake! It was a key lime cake. It was so good!!! Notice the little carrier she brought it in?? How cute is that!!?? I should have placed something beside it. this thing is like the size of my palm!

It was a super fantastic day. I was sick… but she had all the bases covered. I can’t wait to see you again friend!
