Welcome to the Share Our Lives link up hosted by myself, Adrienne, Jen, Joanne, and Sarah! We are sharing our lives this year on the second Monday of each month, and this month’s prompt is how we celebrate birthdays.
In our family, our birthdays are throughout the year, in April, May, June, August, and November. I am the only fall baby! We normally celebrate by trying to make the birthday person feel special. They get to choose what we have for dinner that night and what kind of cake they want. Now that the kids are older, they occasionally invite friends over to celebrate with them. Here are some of their birthdays from the past few years:
Simon’s 14th
Zachary’s 16th – the kids look so young!
Gabbie’s 20th
Here on the blog, for many years I did birthday interviews and how well do you know your sibling posts for the kids’ birthdays. Lately I’ve just been reviewing their years in honor of their birthdays.
I celebrate my own birthday by getting a free Starbucks drink. And of course, my choice for dinner and cake.
If you posted about birthday celebrations, you can link up with us here, and come back next month when we’re sharing unique things about where we live.
How do you celebrate your birthday?
