Hello everyone, today's blog post is by Lydia and as you can see from the title it's what I got for my 16th birthday. My birthday was yesterday ( 8.8.16) and although I got a lot of money I also got a lot of lovely presents. I had a really nice birthday, I spent the day at my close family and friends house with my mum, dad and brother and we walked their dogs and went to the beach in the evening. Very relaxed.
As I was away from home the first presents I opened was from the family friends, I was staying with. They got me this cute pen which says 'Someone Special' on it and the necklace that has my name on it, I used to have one of the necklaces but I lost it years ago. They also gave me £35 to spend on whatever I wanted. So that was really nice of them.
When I got home I was able to open all my presents that were delivered whilst I was away for the weekend. The first presents I opened were from my mum and dad. I also go an early birthday present which was £60 getting 3 piercings! I got 2 DVDs, one is Mad Max Fury Road, I've seen the film before but I really liked it so wanted it on DVD, the next DVD is called Spy, I've never seen this film but it has Melissa McCarthy who was in another film I liked. I also got a grey backpack as all of my other ones are falling apart so I have a new one which will hopefully last longer! I also got the phone case, which I love because it has a load of cute cats on.
Then I opened a parcel that was from my auntie and cousin, they had got me a candle that is white pepper and amber scented, it smells really nice. They also got me a note pad which has a design of green leaves on, this notepad will come in very handy in the future! The last present they got me was a 'Pamper Bag' which had a body wash, a body butter and hand cream inside, they all smell really nice!
My dad got me a seperate present from just him. He got me a Pullman carriage. My dad used to work on the railways, he used to work with Pullmans which are basically really old, expensive carriages to ride in and are very special to ride on. There is a Pullman carriage called Lydia, which is the same as my name so he got me that for my 16th birthday. I've always wanted one but I knew they were going to be a lot of money. I went off the idea of having one as it was going to be really hard to get and be very very expensive, I really wasn't expecting it but I love it! So if your names Lydia or you know someone called Lydia there is also a very expensive, old Pullman carriage with the same name!
That was all the things to unwrap, but I also got a lot of money. My brother gave me £100 as he said he didn't know what to get me but I wasn't expecting that much, which was very kind of him. My uncle gave me £20, which was kind of him. My mums friend gave me £20 in a card. And my Grandma gave me £1005.77 exactly! The reason it's so much because she saves up money so she can give all her grandchildren £1000 for their 16th birthday, the £5.77 was interest or something, but all of us have had £1000 for our 16th birthday. I will spend all of the money I was given wisely and try not to waste too much of it on just stuff!
I had a really nice birthday yesterday and I got spoiled a lot! I wasn't expecting how much I got and how much money was spent on me but I love all my presents! Thank you for reading this blog post, I hope you enjoyed it! If anyone was wondering why I haven't put what Jade got me in, that's because I haven't got it yet as I haven't seen her but I will be getting it tomorrow as I'm going round there tomorrow! Thank you again for reading! Hope you enjoyed!
