4.6.09

Today, I turned 31. Seriously, 31. I don't know what exactly to think of 31. It sounds weird (& wishful) but I still feel 28ish. I do. I'll go ahead and insert what Dallas would say here..."It's because you're married to a younger man..." insert drums...Bah, Dum, Chi. He's funny. These days not as funny as usual. He is really sweet, though. I am Brad Paisley's biggest fan. I think that if Dallas didn't feel confident that 5'4 skinny guys aren't my type, he'd be worried. Dallas dedicated his new song, "Then" to me. He didn't go old skool on me and call an Atlanta radio station, but we listened. The song melts my heart...
My present was supposed to be sitting at the Marlins game on Opening Day (no pressure) but I know God has a better gift ahead. My family celebrated my birthday last night and Boo made me a cake. Dallas and I are headed for a date night tonight. My girlfriend Donna got me perhaps, the funniest gift of all...thank goodness for best friend's like this...

It's yummy & fun all at the same time. Believe it or not, we have moved on. She said you should have seen the girls face writing it. Excuse me, what? "Just write Marlins Suck, they do." Then, at the checkout the girl saw it and said she needed to make one for her professor. Donna noted that it really was the "mature" thing to do. Gotta love sarcastic friends!! God Bless them.
And Reese brought me a card, she LOVES Pooh, Tigger and Darby these days. She did some artwork to send me the love...

I've been working so much that I haven't had my camera out, so here's some shots from last week. Reese & Averie watching Handy Mandy (Reese loves saying "tooools") before bedtime. We miss her...


So cute.  I didn't get to finish the bunny pics.  Something to look forward to tomorrow!
