Happy Birthday to me!!

Amidst all our busyness, I also celebrated a birthday! The weekend of my birthday was busy, but a lot of fun. I got to go and get a pedicure with a friend and I went out just for fun with some friends after Kiara's concert. We had a good time just eating good food and talking. I hadn't done that in a long time. I shared my day with Father's Day this year, so we spent the day at my parent's house hanging out with family.



But, the highlight of my birthday was the present from my husband. It is the necklace you see in the picture. It is an adoption necklace, it says 'I chose you' over and over on the heart. Mine, of course, doesn't say Silas and the name pennant will be added at a later date. I love it!! It somehow makes me feel closer to my next daughter. You can find this and other great handmade creations at Junk Posse, http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5208670&section_id=5306798.

Oh what a bad friend I am....Happy Birthday! I just checked I have it written on my calender - I will just have to blame it on fathers day!
Love you and glad you had a good day!
I met Lana on monday and they put an offer on a house by one of my good friends in a wonderful village!

Holli, no biggy, I don't know if I could tell you when your birthday is, I am pretty sure it is in December...so I am a worse friend!

Glad you got to meet Lana, she must have been extremely busy, I didn't realize they traveled already and they must have left the day after Amy's concert. I can't wait until I get to visit you both in England!!
