Thank you!

Thank you everyone for your phone calls, texts, emails, cards, posts and more, I truly had a great birthday and loved hearing from many friends and family. Although some of the cards made me laugh out loud or almost tear up, my little nephew Taye once again stole my heart by singing "Happy to you, Happy to you!" Followed by, "I love you, okay all done." Too cute, but seriously thanks again, it meant so much to me. I couldn't be living down here pursuing my dreams without the support system I have up at "home base."

Kelly and I at a wonderful Brazilian restaurant. Complete with a live band, carved steak at our table and some cheesecake that gives The Cheesecake Factory a run for their money.
Back at home opening presents in my comfy sweats.
Being a bit dramatic about one of my gifts, hey I didn't want to disappoint. Kelly made a one of a kind gift certificate for a birthday trip to NYC!!! I have never been and am beyond thrilled. We will be going the 4th of July weekend!
Here is his work of art, I have been teasing him that when we were dating he used to always make me things, and I loved it. Well, he took it to heart and the collage above is the outcome.
And, of course a goofy picture of Kelly, he just cracks me up.
