I received many cards from family. I went home Friday to find not one bouquet of flowers, but two! The "birthday cake bouquet" is from my brother, sister-in-law, and nephews. The huge bouquet in the vase? From Rome! Even the card was in Italian and it made me laugh to think of the flower shop trying to write it all out correctly and wondering what it meant. I also received one of the funniest gifts I've ever gotten, and naturally it was from my hoebag. She painted the picture of us from New Year's when we were excited about Rome, and naturally she painted it on Italian colors. She's clever like that! I also received my amazing Vera Bradley bag from my mom; she got me the purse, wallet, wristlet, and makeup bag for Christmas, and knew how badly I wanted the messenger bag to carry my camera and other things in. And inside were all sorts of goodies! All matching blue and brown of course, because SHE is definitely too clever! I'm really excited to take the bag with me to San Diego next weekend. And I also got an amazing smelling candle from M, ("vanilla birthday cupcake") which Fisher flips out at whenever we light it. And of course, shots of Fisher, my birthday present from J, and also because he's adorable and a total ham for the camera.
So there you have it. The best birthday ever! I'm so excited for this "new year" and to chronicle all the things I have planned. It's going to be amazing and I can't thank you all enough for the birthday wishes and support. You're just the best.
Have a great week, and I'll talk to you after San Diego if not sooner!
LC.
