A Birthday to Remember

Wow, this one was unforgettable! I woke up to a happy birthday text from my mama (she is learning to text, so it still feels strange to get one, but always puts a smile on my face) and it really set my day! I forgot to get the card in the mail, but I am saving that for today so I still have something left to open! Chad just told me where our mailbox is last night, so I will grab it on my way to work this morning (sorry mom).

When I walked into my room at school it was beautifully decorated! I was shocked when I looked at the board and saw that Celeste and Laken had contacted one of my teammates (thanks Rooks) and had her help the night before to decorate! Brought some happy tears and made me realize that these two ladies are so special to me (they were before, but I think it just made me love them even more)! They totally threw me off, as they text me at like 5:45 in the morning and had plans of coming back to school to visit yesterday...so I was not expecting what they did at all! Thanks again ladies for making my birthday so special!

Then, during my second hour, which isn't until about 1pm, I got the most beautiful bouquet of pink and yellow roses (think they were long stem)! They smell so good! Chad is so good about the flowers and always makes sure they are beautiful! I am a lucky girl for sure!!! The office ladies are jealous and teased me when they called to have someone walk down to get them for me! They told her to tell me they were from them! HA! The were wondering what I had done to get flowers twice this month!?

I got showered with text messages and phone calls all day with birthday wishes - thank you to everyone who sent them my way! Each one was special to me!

When I got home from work, Kyan and Lola got me a singing dog card (I know I get a singing card if it is from Kyan...they are his favorite) and some scisscors to cut fabric with! Then it was off to the store by my house to get my new sewing machine!!! The plan was to go as a family, but the kids were being crazy, so Chad told me to go pick the one I wanted! Woohoo! I spent way too much money, but get free lessons on how to use the thing for as long as I own the machine. I went to a locally owned place in Goodyear and they were sweet ladies who are so excited to teach me! I went in there pretty clueless (and I told them that)!

Then it was back to the house for some dinner that my dad brought home! Ah-So!!! So delicious! I think my dad was surprised at well much Kyan loves it too and eats with his chopsticks! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Thank you everyone for making #29 amazing! Love you!
