Here is a brief recap of how my 28th birthday went today...
TARA started things off early this morning by keeping me on the phone late, so that at 12:01am, she could be the very first to wish me a happy birthday. Thanks, girl! ;)
First of all, A HUGE SHOUT OUT to all my friends who sent me TEXT MESSAGES, INSTANT MESSAGES, and CALLS to wish me a happy birthday. I am OVERWHELMED at the "love" and "support" I got from all out you. You guys, truly are great friends. I know that I am a better person because each one of you has taught me something, and helped me become a better person. I didn't realize until today how many friends I really have. I received messages LITERALLY from around the country. California, Flordia, Michigan, Colorado, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Connencticut were among the few.
Thank you so much!
Went to Chili's for dinner with my parents and my niece, Rylie. She is so cute and is only seven months old. She was very good at the restuarant...I was kind of surprised. As for the meal-delicious! I had the Old Timer with cheese. It was MUCH better than when I met up with Scotty and Steph in Sandusky.
As far as gifts, I received one hundred and thirty dollars in checks from extended family. From my immediate family, I received a KODAK EASY SHARE Digital Camera, carrying case, extra batteries, and battery charger. I am so excited to finally get a digital camera and will begin playing with it tomorrow!
All in all- it was a great birthday! Thanks again to everyone who made it so special!

P.S.- I am doing surprisingly well on my lenten promise of no pop. Been a week-and still no pop!
P.S. II- My brother comes home tomorrow for a few days! I am excited to see him again! Been a while.
