I love greeting cards.

I can honestly spend an eternity in the card section thumbing through greeting after greeting. 

The ones I fancy most can, rest assured, be found behind the humor divider.

Unfortunately the genre of laughter I possess is somewhat of a donkey nature, usually slipping out in beats of three, from deep within the bowels of my throat.  

And though I have gotten rather attached to this curious noise throughout my 28 years of life, it still seems to throw off my fellow greeting card shopping customers.

 

Here are a couple of the cards I received for my birthday that were applauded with the donkey laugh seal of approval -

(From The Beloved and our offspring)

I believe this card was purchased after reading one of my recent posts -

you can just feel the overwhelming sympathy :)

(From my mother and sisters)

No more disclaimers for you Mom :)

Now on to the present section (hurray, I love the present section) -

The Beloved spoiled me rotten with clothes, clothes, clothes - and also pink ear phones... I'm in love.

We also had a little pool party at a friends house - super enjoyable!

(Yes, that is The Beloved, and he did shave away his super awesome hair and manly beard.

No, I do not know why his eyebrows look manicured...and yes, he seems to have an identity crisis every six months and has to change his looks completely. Good thing he has such a handsome face :))

Look at those frightened faces - preparing to be flung in the air.

And now, the reason why I look so sweaty and gross in all of my birthday pictures and everyday thereafter:

 

My marvelous parentals and outstanding sisters purchased this little beauty for my birthday.

Oh, the spoilage of it all!
