I have to keep this as short as my chatty self allows me.....
I got back from LA really late last nite (oh, how I hate delays!) and spent today resting and having a birthday afternoon with my aunt and a surprise from my mom and grammy. The card my gram wrote to me was one of the most precious gifts I have ever recieved! What she said in her card.....the tears flowed for hours. This was my first birthday without with my Grampy, so the words she said in her card let me know that she loves me more that life and that Grampy did too...and always will. I know he was with me today and always.
Then there's LA. Oh, how I miss thee. My home away from home. For those of you who don't know, I was there from the 16th-21st. I WILL live there soon and cannot wait.
AND....I cannot tell you how amazing you ALL are!!!! To log on here today and see all of my birthday messages!!! WOW!! You all are the best!! Thank you SO MUCH....it means so much to remembered! WOW!!! AND all of the Helenified banner!! WOW!! AND the calls and myspace messages as well. They all really brightened my day! XOXO
I will post with LOADS of LA details later! Not only did I come home for my bday, but I also got the lead in the newest play her, The Sting. It's a variation of the film version and I play Billie, Robert Redford's girl. Such an amazing time! I ADORE rehearsal....AND get to work with Pam again! WHOO!
Again, thank you all so much! It means SO MUCH to me!
As I said before, I have many stories....both about the wedding and some crazy Heather and Dee times that are perfection! She has the pics from the night me, Heather and the gals from Bel Air celebrated a few days early! HELLO 25!
