Happy Birthday To You!

Today is the birthday of my sweet mother in law. This special lady who brought my fabulous husband into the world deserves to have a party on the world wide web!! Pour a cup of coffee or tea and join us for some cupcakes as you wish her Happy Birthday. I will be serving popcorn and Dr. Pepper later on today, so enjoy and let the celebration begin right here, right now!


HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MOM!! I HOPE IT'S THE BEST EVER!

Love, Rachel


P.S. This delicious cupcake recipe just looked to perfect to pass up for Mom's birthday. You can get it here from Tara to make a few more in the earthshattering event that there are so many guests that I run out! If today is your birthday also, be sure and tell me! Ta Ta for now!


The presents are wrapped, the popcorn is popped, the drinks are served, so if you are just now dropping by, come on, grab a bite, and join the fun...it's a party!!!

I'll take a cupcake and do you have anymore of that red drink? You know how to party girl! I'm lucky enough to share the honored ladies last name too :) Happy Birthday Mom Going!! I couldn't ask for a better Mother-in-law.

Oooh, Rachel, you are a sweet DIL! And don't you think these are sinfully yummy--and easy, too? Enjoy them!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to your mother-in-law. The cupcakes look delicious! Did you receive the vintage items or are they still being transported in the mail?

Happy Birthday Mom Going, happy birthday to you!

Gee these cupcakes and Dr. Pepper are yummy, don't you think? And of course, I've got a diet Coke in the other hand~

Happy February 28th! Good day in my book.

Thank you, Rachel, they look delicious. Your father-in-law said he would take a dozen of those. :~) Yesterday, I did have a dozen yummy cupcakes sent to me by one of the ladies in our church.

Love you,

Also, I want to say 'thank you', to all of your blog friends who wished me a Happy Birthday. That just made my day a little brighter away down here in the south. I get to hear Jim Daly of Focus on the Family speak tonight at a special banquet.

Happy Birthday to your Mother in law.
I just came by after visiting Brook's The Home that love built.
When I saw your comment with the name of your blog I thought that it sounded like it would be a pretty blog to visit, and it is.
Have a great day

MMMM those look so yummy! I also like the popcorn and Dr. Pepper, one of my favorite snacks, except I prefer Diet Pepsi. You're a sweet DIL!

I have really enjoyed all of the birthday greetings you inspired for me, Rachel. Thank you.

Dad had 2 doz. beautiful red roses delivered to me today. It has been a great day. Thanks for the birthday party. :~)

I hope I'm not too late for a cupcake and popcorn - and Dr. Pepper! I love the "Dr!"

I just noticed your blog background, banner, etc. looks different - very pretty! Did you do that yourself, you smart girl!?

Rachel, I just wanted you to know I enjoyed the birthday party. It doesn't help my diet though. I have been married to your mother-in-law for many years, and she is truly a wonderful lady.
