SURPRISE!!!

My birthday is September 11th. I was supposed to go to Italy for my 40th....ummm....NO. So my friends decided to throw me a surprise party on September 1st instead...I love my friends! Original post September 2, 2006

Ahoy to all....

Some of you on this list won't know what I'm talking about, so let me explain....a bunch of my crazy friends at Childrens' were supposed to get together and have a "Poker Party" yesterday.....which acturally turned out to be a surprise party for my 40th birthday (9/11 is my actual b-day). It was just incredible, so I want you all to know how much I appreciated it.

First and foremost, a gigantic THANK YOU to everyone who had a hand in my surprise party yesterday....I have only ever been surprised like that once before...I'm kinda hard to keep a secret from, but you guys really pulled one over on me. I had a fantastic time. You all don't know how much I miss you....seeing you all was the best medicine a girl could have.

And no....for those of you who were wondering....I had absolutely NO idea. If I had even thought I was going to a party for me....I would have dressed up, put on some make up and I would have at least TRIED to have the hair ON my head instead of in my bag. One of my 1st thoughts as the shock was wearing off was "Oh crap...I didn't even put on lipstick!" I know....vain.

Big hugs & kisses to the ones I now know were the co-conspirators in this whole thing.....An'e (you know her as Annie), Chandra, Cindy and Yvonne. An'e please pass on the hugs and kisses to your Mama & Papa....I know they helped you tremendously, too. Your Papa is Master of the Grill.

Anyway....I really don't have pictures to share of the 1st part of the party. I was so surprised that I forgot to take out my camera! Yes....I got all discombobulated and went around hugging people....and eating all that good food...instead to snapping pictures like I usually do! So I'll have to wait until the others share their pics.

Again...thanks to all for a great day...I am truly blessed to have such awesome friends. I miss and love you all.

Love,
Mel
