Birthday! Guess who is turning 50!

Photo on 1-14-15 at 2.37 PM

Guess who is turning 50! I can’t believe how fast the years have zoomed past. Funny, I don’t feel like I should be half a century old, but according to my driver’s license, which I now have to read with glasses on.

One thing my mom used to do when she made our birthday cakes was to wrap coins in foil and put them in the cake. Each slice had a treasure. Sometimes it was a nickel or a dime..but if you were lucky you got the quarters. It was the anticipation that made it special more than the change. Isn’t that like life!

I am 50, a big birthday and I can’t wait to see what the next slice of life holds.

In honor of my birthday I made a super cute sassy flounce apron for me and one to give away. If you would like to win this adorable apron just leave a not in the comment section below and at the end of the month, on January 31,  I will have a drawing to see who the lucky person is.

For an added treat, sign up to follow my blog and I will send you the recipe for this amazing apple strudel pie!

What is your favorite birthday treat?

    Happy birthday! Wow, time has flown by. It seems just like yesteray that you brought us all to the pool in Whapeton. That was almost 20 years ago, so you were my age.

    I would love to win this apron,as both or mine are tucked away in storage. And I’d love the recipe for your apple pie. Mmm!

    I remember Mike’s 50th surprise birthday party (over 16 years ago!). You and John were there to help surprise and celebrate! Happy 50th, Marci!

    Happy Birthday Marci!
    I love a yummy slice of cheesecake for my birthday! And I must mention that my mom did the same thing with coins in our cakes growing up – one of my favorite memories!

    Happy Birthday Marci! I really enjoy hearing tidbits about your precious family and was extremely pleased to see your boys last Spring and meet their future (at the time) beautiful brides.
    My favorite birthday treat is having all my family home to help me celebrate

welcome It is hard to talk about me, without talking about us!    The Seither Family.  John and I have been married for over twenty five years. From the day we said “I do”, it has been quite an adventure.  One of the biggest things people notice about our family is the size. Yes, there are six kids, proof that  God has a sense of humor. I tell people that ask if we are done with six. “No” I promptly reply. “We were done at four! But the last two were too cute to send back.” Read More
