Hello August!
The days just continue to click by at a rapid pace, and here we are once again at the start of a new month.
And, what better way to start off August then with a little coffee catch up with friends – so for this week’s Fit Five Friday I’m joining Coco and Deborah for the Ultimate Coffee Date. Let’s chat!
Over coffee, I would tell you that birthday celebrations are in full swing in my house with both my sons’ birthdays being just a week apart and my husband’s is in a couple of weeks. I will mark another trip around the sun on Monday so, of course, I will start celebrating this weekend and then continue all month long! 🙂
Over coffee, I would tell you that later this month we’re heading back to our favorite spot in Stowe. I love being in the mountains and am looking forward to some time hiking, kayaking and unplugging with the family!
What would you tell me over coffee? Do you like to celebrate your birthday or do you let the day slide by quietly?

Happy Birthday weekend eve!
I like a bit of celebration but not a huge fuss.
Stowe sounds great!
Thanks Coco 🙂 We always have such a good time in Stowe – looking forward to it!
August is a big birthday month at our house too! Happy birthday to all!
Enjoy your vacation!
Thanks Wendy!
Happy Birthday to all of you! Everyone in this house except for me has a summer birthday so I feel like we’re celebrating all summer long. Mine is a week before Christmas so it tends to get tucked in with all the other festivities. Enjoy your vacation!
Thanks Marcia – We joke that this is our “Christmas in the Summer”.
Ooh! Happy Birthday Month!!! I would definitely let the celebrations continue all month long. To answer your question, I do like to celebrate my birthday, but not with a big party or anything like that. I definitely don’t let the day slip by quietly.
Have fun in Stowe!
Thanks Jenny – I’m the same…don’t need a big party but do love it as an excuse for extra dinners/cocktails out with friends!
Happy birthday to you all in advance! Stowe should be fabulous this time of the year-enjoy!
Thanks Deborah. And yes Stowe is lovely this time of year – not too crowded and so much cooler!
Happy early birthday!!! You know my birthday ritual, LOL. I’ll try to remember to run four miles for you on Monday ;;-) Do you have plans for lots of cake this month?
Awww thanks Kim 🙂 With all the birthdays keeping my sweet tooth in check is always a challenge!
Happy Birthday month to you and yours! Fun! I hope you all have fun celebrations and a great year ahead!
Thanks so much Erica!
Happy birthday month.
I like celebrate but not make a big deal. Dinners out but no gifts.
Enjoy Stowe. It’s beautiful there.
Thanks Darlene – Happy August!
Happy almost birthday to you! I went through a phase of not wanting to celebrate, but I think I miss those celebrations from when I was younger. My birthday is in the winter so it’s hard to get people to go out.
I get that – I think I went through a phase like that as well. Remember how excited you’d get as a kid when your birthday was approaching LOL
Oh my goodness! So many birthdays hitting all at once! Lots of happiness to you all!
I love my birthday, and I like to celebrate with running and travel. No need for a party or any of that. And give me ice cream instead of cake every time.
Those are good ways to celebrate! And I’m with you on the ice cream instead of cake 😉
Happy birthday two days early! And yes, I’m with you, I celebrate my birthday all month long. 🙂
Enjoy your time away at Stowe with your family!
Thanks Deb!
Enjoy your time in Stowe! I’ve heard of it but didn’t know where it is locates till I looked it up. I am low key about my birthday. Though I did have a get together when I turned 50 because my sister convinced me.
Thakns Zenaida – Stowe is one of our favorite spots. While people know it for the skiing, I actually enjoy it more in the summer and fall.
Aww, happy birthday to your whole family! I don’t like having a bunch of attention on me so just doing something I enjoy + just spending time with loved ones is all I want. 😀
Stowe sounds awesome! Hiking/kayaking/unplugging = my kind of vacation as well. :] (Just came back from doing just that in Washington!)
Sounds like a good vacation! Thanks for the birthday wishes 🙂
