a funfetti cake (my fav!)

red roses (a lot of them!)

a shout-out from michelle on the ccf blog (what an honor!)

facetime on the iphone with emily m. (technology is amazing!)

lots of calls/missed calls (oops sorry!) from family and friends

a flood of cards/parcels in the mail today (nice timing, everyone!)

carrie underwood tickets (score!)

a couple of special drawings on my facebook wall from veronica and stevie (i have such an artistic family!)

and the fact that today wasn't the first day of school for me. (bittersweet... not!)

what a great birthday! thanks world!
