Well, considering the circumstances I had a nice birthday! My mother and my best friend did everything in their power to make it a wonderful one and it was. The day before my birthday and before my grandfather's funeral my mother took me to the beauty shop and paid for me a massage, pedicure and manicure. We also had my hair done and eyebrows waxed. She bought me yellow box flip flops and a tackle box for my cake decorating supplies. (Bass Pro Shops at that! So my cake tips will have a namebrand caddy! Too funny, but wonderful!) Then the day of the funeral and my 30th birthday, I woke up early and rushed but still managed to go to a couple yard sales with Lynn, then make it to the funeral home by 9:15! Yes, 9:15! Can you believe it? Then after the funeral, I was able to rest a little bit and that's when Lynn brought me a cake and a gift card to go shopping! So, in all it was a nice birthday. I appreciate those that tried to make an otherwise gloomy day such a joyous day. I have wonderful friends and family and I am truly grateful! (Lynn, we will have our "girl party" later! I'm looking forward to it, but I'm still expecting the lasagna!)Monday, March 9, 2009

You got it! Just tell me when. We buried my pawpaw on Madison's first birthday. It is not idealistic to have such a sad occassion the same as such a joyous one. I am glad we were able to shed a little joy on such a somber day.
I hope to post very soon. Just downloaded all of those pics. Maybe tomorrow!
Lisa, Happy 30th a couple days late. I am sorry about your grandfather. I hope we'll be able to do our girl's night soon. I have a gift for you, but was unable to manage time to run down and give it to you on Saturday. Maybe this weekend we can all hang out.
