a mama's birthday

This mama had the most terrific 25th birthday. I woke up to a fabulous breakfast in bed followed by the opening of the most intricately wrapped (foil and electrical tape) gift from my love. Odin helped, of course. I swore it was a pair of shoes judging by the shape of the box but it was my very own DSLR! I was so thrilled. I'm still thrilled. The most amazing gift ever! I had been borrowing our house mate's camera for blog photos and now I have my own (squeal!). After that exciting morning and after a little baby nap, we headed to Millbrook, my favorite place, for a long walk. We stopped in a field to nurse and play. 

After a (very) short trip to the brewery we came back home for friends and food. Odin helped make the pasta dough and watched as Rachel made a beautiful cake. It was a lovely evening and I am so thankful for all of the people in my life. Thank you everyone for a fabulous birthday!!
