Birthday Hangover [TTT and RRT]

Happy Birthday Goggles
So what am I Think Tanking?  Hahahhaaa...my birthday of course!  I had an amazing day...

First I woke up to the sound of my daughters singing Happy Birthday to me.  So cute! Birthday Baked French Toast! 
 Then I was treated to some Baked French Toast Breakfast. And was made to dress accordingly for my special day...
  Birthday Girl

After which I was taken out kayaking with my girlfriend Kim.  Now the kayaking thing requires some explanation.  I am NOT an outdoors girl.  Bugs? EW.  And to me outdoors = bugs.  Ugh.  However one thing I have wanted to do for over a decade is kayak and when we moved to Far Far Away, which is right on a lake, I swore I would finally kayak.  How appropriate then that exactly ONE YEAR after moving here that I finally did!

Here is the proof...




On top of all this I received some awesome gifts (a few I'll introduce in later posts) one of which was this from the Mr.

Gift from The Mr.

Hahahaaaa!  I've always been more of a Ryan Reynolds fan over Ryan Gosling myself.  (Lucy not so much apparently!)

Live A Colorful Life
My really random for the week is that I've always wanted to be a blonde.  I love that blonde look that naturally grows lighter as the hair is long?  Darker at  the roots and lighter towards the tips.  As a child I had a local lifeguard whose hair was this way and I have a clear memory of her french braided hair with the glints of blonde getting brighter as it got closer to its end.  See?  Random, although I suppose summer brought back the memory...

Thursday Think Tank
What is your Think Tank this week?
Feel free to rattle off anything that has been brewing in your creative heads. It can be anything, quilting, home improvement, fashion, crafting, DIY gifts, cooking...whatever you have recently thought "hmmm, you know what I should create" is perfectly appropriate for the Think Tank.  TTT is all about whatever you are currently brainstorming and would like feedback or encouragement on!
