Hey Deb, happy birthdayversary!

Risa said...

Congrats on your blog anniversary Deb!
My favorite birthday present was from my son when he was 10 yrs. He didn't have any money to buy me a present, so he tried to make me a caramel apple using the caramel wraps. He was so proud of his efforts and the both of us ate the lop sided caramel coated apple together. Talk about a Kodak Moment:)

V Colbourne said...

Congrats on everything. You cards are amazing, very talented :)
I am linking you up to my blog right now and posting a little entry for others to see this wonderful site!
My favorite birthday present last year wasn't a physical present per say, it was my boyfriend getting home the night of my birthday. Not only was it a huge surprise, it was much needed and wanted because one of our best friends was tragically taken from us on my birthday. It was a hard day in my little community of 200, however, just seeing my boyfriend put some love and hope back in my life.

Cheers!

Nice candy...and very very nice art you create!

Well my most memorable gift has to be my mother's day gift this year...I received an old vintage CP Rail lock. It has the orginal brass key and it works! Then I showed my mom and she told me that my great grandfather used to work on the lines and was the night watchman changing the lines! How cool is that!

Hi Deb Fab Candy on offer, My Best Birthday present was this years, my DH Bought me a Load of my fav Hanglar stamps.

maiahs_momma said...

Lol, the most unusual gift I got for a birthday would have to be a paintball gun. My dh seemed to think I needed one, or that I needed one so that he could have it. I dunno what the thought was behind it, but needless to say I have only used it once.

Hugs,

Happy belated birthday! My birthday was in March and my husband took my son to the craft store and let him pick out something for me. My husband helped to limit the choices a little, but my son picked out the crop-a-dile since it sounds like crocodile. So, I have been having a lot of fun with that lately. Thanks for the chance to get some great blog candy!

Congratulations on your 30 000!! My funniest gift is from my husbond for christmas. He had made a puzzle, where I had to look all over the house to get the next clue;) When I finally had solved the puzzle (it took ages;P), I got a weekend at a hotel in Bergen, and a ticket for a show to see the best Norwegian Stand up comedian, Dagfinn Lyngbø!! The best present ever!!!

usafcole said...

One unusual but great gifts that my husband did for me was to take me out for all three meals on my birthday. Breakfast was with the kids. At lunch, it was extended family. Then for dinner, it was a nice restraunt and just the two of us. There he gave me some other gifts...but for once in my life, I did not have to prepare a single meal. It was great.

Andrea, said...

Hi Deb, left a link to your candy on my blog. My best pressie last year was hubby ordering the Magnolia spring stamp club for me on my birthday and the fab meal we all went for

Thanks for the chance to win your awesome blogcandy! My best gift last b-day was a much wanted iPod. I thougt I was going to get lots of scrapbooking-goodies, but my family reasoned that I would get whatever I needed anyway so they chose to get me something non-scrappy instead! Works for me! :)

scrappernic said...

Congrats! I can't remember my bday presents--how sad--LOL! Actually, my sister and hubby bought me the seasons of Friends that I was missing, so now I have the complete set :) I can remember my fave bday presents though--in 1997, I got my engagement ring and 3 years ago, I got my Canon SLR.

Happy belated birthday and congratulations on your "mega hits". Well it was my birthday yesterday, and I'm not officially counting any more years ;) and I had a surprise present from my husband of a white gold bracelet. It is stunning and I had no idea it was coming. How cool is that!! Have a great day. Lots of love, Denise x

Karen said...

Congratulations on all your celebrations. Have put a link to you in the candy roll call right side of my blog

I think best hubby presents for me each birthday are that he will buy me what I ask for and want: Though I rarely get any surprises, it does mean I like what I get!

danemi1 said...

well done on your anniversary

My fav pressie recently was at Christmas - and my scrapitude swapee sent to me a decorated box - inside it was lots of 7 gypsies bits and bobs - yankee candles - alphas - brads - you name it - it was in there and everything was wrapped up in either handmade boxes or tissue - I kept oohing and aahing all the way through it - it was beautiful and I loved opening it
