Birthday party!

Current Mood:

What a surprise! Tammy, Jairus and the girls came over and we all had a belated birthday celebration because I was out of town when I had my birthday. There was a cake and gifts and pizza and beer and everything :-)!

The first gifts I had opened were the ones from Judy. I have new socks! YAY :-D! I'm actually wearing one of the pairs right now, as a matter of fact :-).

There were also two other gifts from Judy. I opened the bigger one and the box said, "The Trail of Painted Ponies." I didn't know what painted ponies loooked like, and when I opened it my jaw dropped.

It was absolutely gorgeous. This one is called Medicine Pony. The feathers were real and the art was wonderfully detailed. I've always had a fascination for all things Native American and this literally took my breath away.

Judy ALSO got me a book on The Trail of Painted Ponies. It had pictures of all the figurines and sculptures and they were all so beautiful!

Then there was mom and dad's gift. I was so thrilled when I opened it: it's a gift certificate to the Germantown Day Spa! It's entitled "A Day of Caring." It includes an Algae or Mud Wrap, a Customized Facial, and a 1 hour massage! I'm going to save this up for a really stressful week at work (which means I could very well use this in the next two weeks :-)).

Then there was Tammy, Jairus and the girls' gift--A gift card at Payless :-D! And I was just there today too looking at their boot selection :-D. I predict this card is going to get used really soon :-).

Everything was so wonderful and I feel so humbled that everyone went through so much trouble for a birthday that was over two weeks ago.
