It's my birthday!

That's right! Today I turn 24! I'm not normally a big fan of my birthday, but this year for some reason I was super excited!  The day started at midnight opening gifts from my man in bed before sleep time (I've never opened presents in bed before, so it was a total novelty!), opening more gifts from him first thing in the morning (still in bed hehe), and then off to my Mums place for breakfast!

Mmmm Waffles
The dogs love waffles too!

Opening presents!
After a nice relaxing breakfast, it was off to school for me (I had classes until 8:30pm, not so nice on my birthday). Because of this, I actually got to have my birthday cake on Sunday night...
Our traditional family birthday cake is a flourless dark chocolate and almond cake, and boy is it delicious!! It's only made when there is a birthday in the family, but luckily I come from a larger family, so we get to eat this seven times a year!

My evening consisted of yummy pizza and beer, as well as another birthday cake, made by my boyfriend! Now I am very full and sleepy!

Hope you've had a lovely day,
xx
