My best ever birthday present...Well, I've had 34 of them so far so let's think back...tick*tock*tick*tock :). I'd have to say my cars. My first car EVER was given to me the month before my official birthday..and guess which day it got delivered? MY BROTHER'S BIRTHDAY!!! HAHA...he's NEVER let me live that one down. Every year on his birthday, even though he's now 37 years old, he said, "Hey Sis. I got a cool new tie for my bday. What car did YOU get??" :)~

My best birthday gift ever was the birth of my daughter 6 days before my birthday. I so hoped she would be born on my birthday, or my mother-in-laws, she missed my MIL's by 2 days, mine by 6. I guess she wanted her own birthday!!! And it was Easter Sunday!! my email is in my profile on my blog.
My daughter has my charm bracelet from when I was a young girl. I added charms to it for every majr event, and she is a cupcake NUT! I buy her cupcake liners, sprinkles, cookbooks, totes, all with cupcake motifs on them. This would be perfect for her.
My best birthday present is having my husband there because he works about 40-50 hours a week. Anytime I get a full day with him is cause for celebration!
Maybe this was cheesy *embarassed* but it is the truth.
How nice of her to have a giveaway! Thank you Sandy.
My best birthday present was a surprise weekend away in Door County, WI. My boyfriend (of only 3 months at that time) had remembered me saying that I really wanted to go there because it had been YEARS since my last visit. He had every little detail planned from researching restaurants for dinner to packing wine glasses and candles. He is one of the most thoughtful gift givers I know and, 3 years later, he's still mine!
My best ever birthday present was when my daughter arranged for friends to come from another state to come and be with me on my 50th birthday! A total surprise, since I was having knee replacement surgery the very next day.
It meant the world to me.

best birthday present ever was for the 18th..my Mom made a little treasure chest for me and she and Dad filled it with $500 in the gold dollars...very neat! :)
My best ever birthday present was my diamond studd earrings from my hubby!!!!
This is a tough one. I've had 25 great birthdays. My uncle, who is also my godfather, gave me a pair of pearl earrings for my sixteenth birthday. He said he wanted me to wear them when I got married. Nine years later, this past January, I wore them when my now-husband and I tied the knot!
I think my email is in my profile; if not, it is hlatiolais at gmail dot com.
My best birthday present will be happening this summer, when I turn 40. Because my Husband is taking me to an Elvis Costello concert at a Winery in Seattle!!!!!!
Husband PLUS Boyfriend PLUS Windery PLUS Seattle weekend. GASP FAINT OMG and every other freak out with joy you can imagine. I'm so excited I could pee my pants.
My best birthday was my 40th...uhm a few yeas ago, LOL!
I was suprised with a great party given by wonderful friends, presented with a glamourous cake that said "Happy Birthday Andrea"
my name is Holly but it was an inside joke about a cake debacle involving the cfo of Lamborghini and very funny to me, all of this followed the next day by a trip to Mardi Gras AND Cancun!!!
OOOOOh to be 40 again! LOL!
my best present to date has to be my Bow from my hubby. I love it, its a great workout too, hurray for nice arms! (need a work out since I love cupcakes so much!)

My best brithday present was a porch swing from my husband. The same year my mom gave me a fountain for my garden. I love to sit on my swing and listen to my fountain so it is the combo that is my favorite.

My best birthday present ever would have to be my Ice Blue KA stand mixer that I received on my 25th birthday... gah, I LOVE that thing. :) My mom tried to find me a pink one, but to no avail. Fortunately, the Ice Blue fit in perfectly with my decor and we've been BFF ever since. :)

Thanks for having this!
Hmmm, best ever. Probably my surprise 1964 1/2 mustang when I was 16. Great until I crashed it...then, not so much. :{

I have gotten quite a few nice things for my past 21 birthdays, but I more enjoy who I spend it with. My 21st was a weekend event, where I spent time alone with my fiance, went out with him and my close friends, then had family over for a meal the next day. I made the cupcakes of course!

I'm a Christmas Eve baby, so gifts for my birthday always blend in with Christmas gifts! The best birthday gift ever was the only real standout. When my boy since high school and I were living abroad we decided to get married when we came home to the states for Christmas, but in secret. On my birthday, the cat slipped out of the bag in front of my entire family. They were not at all shocked, one hundred percent supportive, and immediately started making plans. That amount of love and support was the best thing I could have oped for. We were married in two days later, with a big celebration the following summer.
I really can't decide which birthday present was the best. But! I think I got excited the most when a couple of years ago, friends of mine baked a cake full of chocolate and brought it to uni (I really wasn't expecting anything).
I have a birthday at the end of the month, so maybe I'll get that best present ever this year :)

This one got me thinking. I can't recall a best birthday present. My family gets together for each person's birthday, so I guess that would have to be the best present for me, whether it's my birthday or someone else's.
My best birthday present ever would have to be my baby sister, although I doubt that I thought so at the time. We are great friends now! :)

My best birthday present would definitely have to be my mac book. I love it so much. I could spend all day bumming around playing with it.
my dyson vacuum! I could never use another type again. My 3 kids mess are no match for it :)
I seem to recall how I felt on my birthdays, rather than what I received, but this one had both. I turned 13 and my parents had a surprise party for me. Before the guests arrived, they took me to the Humane Society (in Milwaukee- yes, that's right I am a Milwaukee girl living in St. Paul, pretending like I am moving back any day now). I got to pick out a puppy and then when we got home, all of my friends were there to surprise me. So much emotion and fun! Unfortunately, the dog turned out to be quite the beast and after he ate all of our "hidden" easter baskets, my mom cursed the day she let me get him!
Tickets to a beautiful ballet. I love dancing more than I can explain. But, I can't dance. So, I watch, happily! If there is a heaven, and some strange twist of fate allows me in the gates, I hope I can enjoy it with cupcakes in my hands and ballet shoes on my feet! And on some days, tap shoes. I love tap, however geeky that sounds!

My best birthday ever was the day I found out that I was pregnant with our last child. They didn`t think that I would ever have anymore, but I proved them wrong!!! He is now going to be 21 years old!

My best birthday present was when i was a small girl and my mom organized a huge girly sleepover for all my friends. It was my first slumber party ever- and my mom made it so special, with games, and movies and a special home made cake! I am 31 now- but I still remember the magic of that birthday. I just had a baby girl this past August- and pretty soon she will have her first birthday! I cant wait to plan, and bake for all her special birthday celebrations- and to tell her about her grandma in heaven- who always made her mommy feel so special on HER birthday:)
In 1992, two days after Thanksgiving, I was married on my birthday ... See, the plan was, that he would never forget my birthday. Well, his plan was that I would never forget his anniversary ...
