this is my year of red. it started with a new jacket at christmas. i feel like the color just fits me now. after years of black, charcoal gray and other neutrals, i like the color's boldness, strength and fun. it's got oomph. and so, i unveil my birthday loot - i swear it wasn't planned this way:
anyway, back to real life - one year older. this is going to be a great year! i can't wait to see what's coming my way over the next 12 months. after all, i'm lucky enough to be surrounded by these hotties:
p.s. - blair gave the keynote address at today's georgetown medical school donor mass. afterwards, he was even interviewed by washingtonpost radio - you rock, sweetie!
- the new mesa red vera backpack is courtesy of my folks. now that emmy's getting older, her accessories take up a lot less space than they used to... i look forward to using this one over the summer, especially on errands and trips to the park. hurray for hands-free storage!
- the hot red 8gb ipod nano is from my sweet baboo. he saw me lusting over it at the apple store months ago... i'd never buy such a thing for myself so the gift came as quite a surprise! it replaces my old green mini ipod - a retired "relic" from early 2004, lol. guess who's using that now? (no, not emmy - she has her own playlist on my red nano. we like to share!)
- the awesome fuzzy red hat and scarf set were handmade (and hand-delivered!) by carolyn. i love 'em!!! and they match the pink set she made for emmy - we're going to be quite the pair this valentine's day!
anyway, back to real life - one year older. this is going to be a great year! i can't wait to see what's coming my way over the next 12 months. after all, i'm lucky enough to be surrounded by these hotties:

Happy Birthday, Kim! I love that red ipod!
Happy Birthday Kim! geez...are we getting old?
Happy Birthday! Red is a great color. I have to say, though, the red scarf looks prettier on you... :-)
Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to you,
Well. . .you know how the rest goes. Hope you have a fabulous year!
Happy Birthday! Nice haul. :)
Happy birthday, youngin! You guys look great in your new scarves. Emmy is so adorable doing the signs. Enjoy your loot. Red is one of my favorite colors, too! :)
Happy birthday! Enjoy your lovely gifts and your lovely family.
Kim, thanks for stopping by! Your blog and baby are so cute. I like the red iPod, I just got a boring ol' silver one, but can't complain, I didn't pay for it. And happy birthday, too! Glad to have a new blog friend.
Happy Birthday! All of that red is really you showing your ‘ole high school spirit, right? Yeah, right! :P
Thanks for all of the wonderful birthday wishes, everyone! They're keeping me warm in this ridiculously frosty weather. :)
Toni - We're not "old", we're just finely aged... like a nice Riesling, perhaps from around the Finger Lakes region? Mmm...
Becky - NOOOOOOO!!! College spirit, sure, but NOT that! Anything but Crabber pride! Eeek!
Happy Birthday Kim! =) Thank you for your birthday wish on my blog. Our hubbies both had the same idea, I got an 8gb MP3 player too (not an iPod though as I wanted one with a radio). You look fab in red btw and your baby is so cute.
I can't believe I've never visited your site before, thanks for linking me. I'll definitely be back.
