I turned 34 this year. I got to celebrate almost ALL week. My family has so many extensions to it that I usually celebrate twice - but this year I got to celebrate 3 times. On the Saturday before my birthday, the kids (Zeta, Nakomus, Kyli, and Liah) picked out a cake just for me. They got it because it was green and purple. It had whipped icing (not my favorite). Amber and Gladys both tried to get them to get one with buttercream icing but they wouldn't budge. They said this one looked just like me and it was the one they were getting.

Along with the cake, they threw me a little party. They also picked out the butterfly cookie cutters and a monkey as gifts for me. They are so cute. I think they love me a little bit. It was so touching to see that they picked things just for ME! I love them girls.

Dorian drew me a picture for my birthday. Then him, Amber, and Mama (Gladys) decided to put it in a cake. This was very sweet. It is a character for me with fairy wings. I love it.


Then on Tuesday my Mom, Scotty, Mamaw, Jennifer, and I all went out to dinner to celebrate not only my birthday but my mom's as well. We ate at Cattle Baron and even got free fried ice cream. That was very enjoyable.
I received many phone calls and some cards and a letter from my dearest friend. Let me tell you....as I turned 34 I really felt loved and celebrated. There is nothing dearer than having the people you love and celebrate daily, turn and celebrate you.
Thank you all so much!
