Birthday Fun!

Well, the Lord blessed me with another birthday, yahoo!. My daughter Melissa invited the family over for dinner and of course, cake and ice cream. Yum. I had a wonderful day. Melissa took me to our traditional lunch at Olive Garden, then we shopped and shopped. She bought me a cute purse. My son, Bob, gave me gift certificate to Belks and my granddaughter, Jessica, gave me a gift certificate to Wal-mart. They know the way to my heart is shopping! Ha! My husband wasn't able to be with us as he was at the beach with our church group. He gave me an under-the-counter cd/radio so I can dance around my little red kitchen while I cook. I missed my first birthday without my son, Billy. He has moved to Tennessee. I am so excited that it is just 5 weeks until his wedding and I will get to see him again. I think I will kiss all over his face. He is going to marry a wonderful girl, a girl just like good old mom. (She keeps him focused) Seriously, she is really going to be a great addition to our family. She has a great family that loves him as much as we do, so I know he is happy. That's what is important to every mom. Thank you Lord for blessing me with such wonderful children.
