Goodies galore!!!
 

Last Friday (Nov.2nd) was my b-day.......I turned 50 .......looks around..*whispers* hubby thinks I am 29. :)

Well he spoiled me once again. And I am not ashamed to say so, he does this often.
Anyways, we went to the computer store to have his computer built. He surprised me by telling the tech to build me one too! So now I have a new custom built computer coming on Friday. We stopped at Hancock's on Saturday and he savagely threw me into the store with my visa card tied to my finger. I swear!!! And I was instructed to buy fabric...oh the horror of it all, surrounded by hundreds of bolts of fabric. And I was expected to choose some of it to take home !!!
After managed to drag myself out of the store, we were off to the Olive Garden for a b-day dinner. And being the practical one (between the cat and i) I got a new vacuum also. I don't expect Kola to use it anytime soon. She would rather lay on the back of the recliner and stare at it until her eyelids got to heavy.

Now for the pictures of my shopping ordeal. The 3rd picture shows my favorite fabric choices. I am thinking maybe a churn and dash and a 9 patch combo.

p.s.
I would have posted sooner but the internet was out all weekend. They just finished working on it around 10 this evening. They were in and out the door for 6 hours!!

Ooh, lucky you, wonderful husband to spoil you so. He's definitely a keeper.

What a wonderful birthday you must have had! Your fabrics are delicious! Can't wait to see what beautiful things you make from them! My birthday is a week from Wednesday and I am being whisked off for a day of fabric and antique shopping in Shipshewanna. I didn't get to choose this expedition, it was chosen for me; however, I will not have to be dragged, kicking and screaming!!!

what a lucky gal you are! and a belated happy birthday to you

Happy Belated Birthday. Sounds like it was a great one. You picked some beautiful fabrics.

Sorry, he is not for rent nor for sale.
:)

Thank you all for the b-day wishes!

Happy belated Birthday! Sounds like you had a wonderful day, good for you!!

Am so sorry to hear that you "got thrown" in that awful pit of fabric!! And you had to "make a decision" on a new computer!! And you had to be forced to eat a birthday dinner. Such a sad, sad day for you.

NOT!!!!!!!!!!!! Great Hubby....Keep him!!!

I know, what a way to be treated. I have to go through this on a monthly basis....getting thrown into a fabric store, taken to dinner. New computers come around every 4 to 5 years.....lol

oh and the vacuum.....Kola says no comment........haha

What a lucky girl you are !!! Congratulations and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!

My birthday is next month, do you suppose you could have your husband talk to my husband? LOL, good for you enjoy all you have received, you surely deserve it!

Oh you really made me miss my dh he has been gone now for almost 6 years and I miss him everyday. He alsways treated me like a queen and supported my expensive hobbies, funny whem he was alive I never quilted my sister in law did and he always said why don't you start quilting. Saturday was my bd I took myself to a beed show and bought way to much then out to eat followed by a fabric shopping spree. Don't really have the money but how often do you have a bd anyway that was my therapy for turning 67. Things will be pretty tight for a month or so but I did enjoy myself. Sure do miss dh

Hugs to you, sassey. I'm glad you enjoyed your birthday.

Better late than never - HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Sounds like you have a wonderful husband and your birthday was definitely nice!

Happy Birthday Chasing .. Sounds like it was a really good one !! Love the material-cannot wait to see what you make out them ...

HAPPY 50! Enjoy all that beautiful fabric.

I love hearing about your birthdays - I recall that your husband has spoiled you in the past with grand birthdays filled with shopping for fabric and or sewing machines and such. What a great hubby to spoil you so - Happy 29th (wink, wink) - I have been celebrating my 25th Birthday for the last 22 years - and I am lucky to have a hubby that spoils me too.
Sounds like you had the perfect birthday again.

I like the way your husband thiunks. for my 70th and 50th anniversary we went to China. No fabric shops or quilt shows were included in the trip.

Thank you Ladies for the lovely posts and warm wishes.

Isn't it wonderful to have a DH who believes in you! That is what your DH said through actions for & to you!!!
