Happy Birthday to me!! Plus 35 things about me.

Today is my 35th birthday, where has the time gone, each year just seems to pass by so fast.  Anyways, I am sure my hubby and kids will spoil me today and I will forget all about it soon enough.

Today I wanted to share a little more about me that you may not know and answer some questions that I was recently asked on facebook.
