I had a truly wonderful birthday! I slept in.... till 9. Woke up to have coffee with my Nana and Neeley, such a wonderful treat. Went to lunch with my Family, caught an afternoon movie followed by a little meandering through Target, and topped it off at dinner with my precious friends and a night cap at our new house! I couldn't have asked for a better day. Drew sent me this beautiful arrangement of flowers in the morning before I started my day.
