I was expecting a quiet evening catching up on what Logan and Lilly (her two beautiful children) have been doing, and how the house hunt has been going. What was I thinking?! Jessie was in charge of our evening after all. We walked in...I suspected nothing. As I walked around the corner to our table I quickly learned it was TABLES. Sitting there were a fabulous group of ladies that I love and adore. She had put together a surprise birthday party so I wouldn't associate my 34th birthday with the time I found out I had cancer. There were lots of balloons, gorgeous flowers, lots of pictures from moments in my life, and a beautiful birthday cake with LOTS OF ICING! What really meant the most to me was that each lady took the time to come support me after the day I just had. I received so many wonderful gifts to bring me comfort during my treatment: comfy pajamas, comfy socks, a book to remind me cancer can't take away my hope/etc., a bracelet with words from the Bible, gift card to buy some of my favorite books while at my chemo treatments, a beautiful wine bottle etched with breast cancer ribbon/"Think Pink" painted on it/and white fairy lights inside, Macy's and Target gift card to buy more comfy pajamas (YES!), a beautiful scarf, an Irish cross that is sitting on my mantle now, and an iTunes gift card to download more of "The Little Couple" episodes.
I need to get copy of Sharon and Monique's pictures. :) I'll post them as soon as I can.
