Today I am thankful for a wonderful family from around the country who took a few minutes out of a stressful weekend to celebrate my birthday. I am also thankful that time spent with said family makes me happy, not anxious. I am a lucky girl with an awesome family!<\/p>\n

I asked Lex to be the photographer this evening, so most of the photos are his.<\/p>\n

Someone couldn’t wait for the birthday cake!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"fairy\"<\/a>

Eve has been talking for weeks about getting me the most perfect, most beautiful present EVER! Today my parents ended up taking her to a store, “somewhere that sells beautiful glass things,” per her request. She spent her allowance money and got me this little fairy. Do you see how happy she is in the corner of the picture. :)<\/p><\/div>\n

\"card\"<\/a>

Lex took pictures of all of the cards. This is a talking card full of cheese jokes. Thanks Greg and Kathy!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"prism\"<\/a>

I’m looking forward to beautiful rainbows on sunny days! Thanks Mema!<\/p><\/div>\n

\"envelopes\"<\/a>

He also took pictures of all of the envelopes. :)<\/p><\/div>\n

\"duck\"<\/a>

This duck marionette was a favorite of mine when I was a kid!<\/p><\/div>\n
