Happy Birthday Mom!

A couple of weeks ago, I went home for the weekend in order to celebrate my mom's birthday. As a family tradition, we normally go out to dinner or  stay in and have the favorite food of the birthday girl/boy for dinner! My mom's birthday was on a Friday so after a long week of work, she decided we should stay in and celebrate.

This year, my mom turned the big 4-5 and I wanted to make her birthday dinner super special. I made the cutest collage in the shape of a 45 to hang on the wall, blew up balloons, and made a Butterfinger (my mom's favorite candy bar!) cake. 

We aren't really big on birthday gifts in our family, but for her birthday we bought her the FitBit Charge HR. This way my mom can compete with my sisters and I on our daily challenges! We also made my mom a list of 45 Things My Mother Has Taught Me. She loved it! My mom has taught me so many valuable life lessons throughout the years and I'm so thankful to be able to call her my mom.

Overall, it was a great night and weekend! HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!
