Great Birthday!!

Even though I was far away from some family and friends I had a wonderful birthday thanks to all of you and especially dad.  Dad hit a home run with treating me like a queen - he always manages it even though he has had quite a few things on his plate.  It started out with a birthday parade.  I received a few things that will help my meager seminary wardrobe.  Thanks dad - the clothes were so cute.  Breakfast was awesome - Homemade Hash Browns, omelet with peppers and tomatoes from the garden, lingonberry scones and fresh squeezed orange juice.

Dinner was exceptional also - back porch - fountain running (could there be anything greater) and a fantastic dinner.

I loved all the skyping, phone calls, letters, gifts and VIDEOS!!! 

My birthday keeps on giving - I had this amazing breakfast at LeRoys with my great friends the Swansons on Monday morning.  Thanks for the picture Jim - and the breakfast!!  Getting older is great.
