Birthday Fun!

mmm....sushi...eel....too much....can't fit.....yummy

First off, thanks so much to all who participated in my birthday fun, and especially to Judith and Whitley for putting it all together.....it was a great one.

To recap, Judith and I spent the day shopping and eating and what not.....then we met Whit in Anderson and headed for my condo. Upon reaching my place, I was told to where a nice shirt and jeans to go to the restaurant (which I had no clue where we were headed).

After getting ready, I was blind folded and led down 16 steps and to a car, which was very difficult to get into not knowing which way to sit because I couldn't see (probably very funny to watch). Then we headed for the restaurant. I am sure people were staring at our car driving down the road.....I mean, I am a white chick in the back blind folded....with a "chinese" and black girl in the front dancing to ghetto music! People were probably thinking all kinds of stuff! haha!

Anyhow, I was dropped off at the door, where Judith led me into the restaurant and to a room, where my eyes were then uncovered. I was at Nami's sushi restaurant, and there was an awesome group of people waiting for me! We had a great meal, and then headed to my place to have cake and ice cream! Upon arrival, 12 of us played Cranium, and I voted that my team won seeing that it was my birthday and all! (we were really the losers, but whatever)

All in all it was a great night, and the rest is to be left for the girls and the girls only to know! We are about to start the real party.....that is if I can wake Whitley up! heehee! Thanks everybody for the sweet notes and gifts! You all are the very best! I said this earlier at the table during dinner: the friends you have around you make you or break you, and help mold and shape you to be the person you are......well, all of you have brought so much joy into my life, and have been great encouragement and accountability! God has really used you to help me become the woman that I am now.....I can't thank Him enough for how much He has blessed me! Thanks for being a part of my life!

All my Love:)
