It's OUR Birthdays!


Hubby and I share January as our birthday month - me on the 22nd, and he on the 29th.  Having January birthdays is common also means we've share the experience of having our special days virtually ignored for our entire lives - - they are too close to Christmas, the weather sucks - - so we have always made a special effort for each other to really celebrate one another for about a solid three weeks!

We've already begun letting the good times roll!  This morning we had breakfast out before work, and after work tonight went our for dinner and a pint.  The theme weekend is shaping up to be "hunkering down" and "cocooning" - talking about renting a movie or two - a little shopping - puttering around with our own hobbies.  You know what that means!  Quilting!

  3. My and my husbands birthday are 2 days apart this week so we always celebrate a joint birthday. It's so much better together, no one else seems to remember , as you say too soon after the celebrations at Christmas. Have a great birthday time both of you . Lisa x

  4. Happy Birthday to both of you. I'm a January birthday girl as well so I know what you mean about the lack of celebration. Enjoy every day of your three weeks!
