Cabo Birthday Table

Happy birthday to me!  

Since I turned 40 we have always gone 

someplace warm for my cold and dreary 

January birthday.  

Now that we have our home finished 

in Cabo, and since Mexico is so 

welcoming to tourists, we have been 

coming here for my birthday.  

This is my first tablescape that I 

have created at our Cabo home.  

This is out on our deck overlooking 

the ocean.  

If you follow me on IG you 

may have seen the surprise my 

husband gave me with a tub 

full of gorgeous roses.  

He was actually the one who suggested 

that I use the roses for a tablescape 

before they wilted. 

I asked him when he got the roses 

and prepared the tub filled with 

roses.  He had also gifted me a two 

hour massage at the house, so he 

slipped away to get the roses and 

filled the tub and the room with candles 

while I was having my massage.

What a guy!!! 

We tore down our old house and rebuilt on 

the same lot.  We had used the house for 12 

years and had originally planned on 

doing this within 3 years, but when the 

economy crashed in 2008, we put off 

the tear down and were glad we did.  

Friends drove a 15 passenger van down 

for us as the house was getting 

finished and we filled it to the 

roof.  That way I was able to bring 

down 6 sets of plates, glasses and 

flatware.  These plates were from 

Home Goods.  

I love the flatware, but I have to say 

that the white hasn't held up.  It has 

chipped off and now is actually peeling 

off and we have only had a year and a 

half of use.  

These gold glasses were purchased online. 

I placed the roses in gold 

plastic bins that I got from 

Home Goods.  They adorn my 

pantry shelves.  

The gold placemats were from Amazon. 

The built in granite table has 

soft blues and golds in it so it 

is beautiful near the ocean. 

And as a special treat for you, 

while I was taking my photos 

a cruise ship passed by.  

The marina has been filled with 

3 cruise ships at a time on most days.  

This time of year is whale season, 

so along with the cruise ships, 

we get a good show of whales 

with adults teaching young whales 

how to jump and to slap their fins. 

Thanks for stopping by to visit. 

I will be posting with 

Tablescapes Thursday
