And the winner of the drawing is…
EMILY HOUTZ (my sister!)
This really was a great birthday. I enjoyed all the facebook, twitter and blog comments wishing me well. I got some e-cards in my inbox that were very special. A lovely friend gave me an apple cinnamon scented candle. Some gifts made it in time to our little mail box, too; talk about a miracle! The day of my birthday my dear friend took me out for breakfast. She also gave me a home made apple pie – yum! A couple gals from church dropped a cake by the house along with some jewelry as a gift. In the afternoon we got to go see Toy Story 3 in 3D all together as a family. So fun! Then in the evening DaRonn took me out for sushi. At the end of a full day of partying my head hit the pillow contented and feeling very loved.

What a superb birthday! You are loved by many!!
Big, big hugs!
Yay for things arriving in the mailbox! Had to pray for a speed-up there…. and got it.
I like those stoneware goblets! (My mother used to run a pottery shop… but was her own best customer.)
Glad you had a great Birthday. You deserve it.
Tim.
P.S. No-one will think that you fixed that draw at all…. absolutely no-one….. ever….. in a million years.
Tim, the goblets are amazing. A Bolivian artisan made them. Guess what? My mom runs a pottery shop. But not the shopping shop kind. The workshop shop kind.
Ah, and if anyone rigged it it was the aunt’s nephew who drew out the name.
Adorable photos! Congratulations Emily!
Happy Birthday for the 19th @ngie!! It sounds as if you had such a great day with lots of special treats. I love the photos – a cake AND a pie, wow! They look lovely
