Welcome to this week’s #MySundaySnapshot post, which is part of a snap-sharing-blog-linky series that you are very welcome to join. Click here for further information and guidelines upon this linky should you wish to take part.
And just like that, another year has passed by and here I am in the final year of my thirties… To celebrate the event my husband spoilt me rotten with gifts galore including an incredible treadmill, a beautiful bouquet of roses, the What Do You Meme game, a decision desk spinner, a new eyeliner, a case of Dandelion and Burdock because a girl can never get enough D&B, and an obligatory Terry’s Orange.
Not only was it my birthday but it was also the Saturday before our little lady turns the tender age of ten thus we decided to have a Harry Potter-themed Hot-Tub party at home for E and four of her friends. Having spent the past few days making and putting together a four-tiered Harry Potter-themed cake and a buffet banquet big enough to feed the entirety of Hogwarts, never mind decorating, organising and hosting the event I’m now exhausted!
I’ll be sure to share pictures of the cake, balloons, and events in future posts. Until then, here’s a picture of my beautiful bouquet. On that note, I’m off to run myself a hot bubbly bath and to kick back and relax for what remains of the final birthday of my thirties.
Thanks for reading my #MySundaySnapshot post, I look forward to catching up and sharing your #MySundaySnapshot pictures either through your own posts, social media shares or comments upon this post.
