In my next twenty years...

I am not big on birthday's

but after the last couple years

i have had, i figure what better

time to celebrate a new me, and

a new fabulous future than now

some of my besties organized a small intimate
get together to celebrate a new happier and
much healthier me. i have the best friends
family and siblings ever!

even though some could not make it
most showed up in true BFF style

each one of these special people in my life
were here because of just that...they are special
they each blew out a cupcake and gave me a
wish and reminisced on days gone by

it was the most heartwarming, sincere tribute
that an old hag like me could hope for

and in a few more weeks i get to go
celebrate again with my Vegas peeps

i have the best mom and better half
in the whole world, and that i know for sure

this picture does not get every one in it by far
but it is proof that fredrico's salads, good friends,
and hello kitty cupcakes make the best birthday
party a thirty something girl could ask for!

i'll do it better in my next twenty years
as tim mcgraw so wisely stated

thanks to all who made this day happen

p.s. we missed those that could not be there
like a fat thirty something red head misses cake!
