I have to admit that I do LOVE suprises......well the good one's anyways! But I've found the older you get the less things you have to truely be suprised about. Well, last week was my birthday, I turned 26. I don't mind sharing my age and I doubt I ever will but ask me again in about 15 years! Josh and Maddie sang Happy Birthday to me that morning, then I dropped Maddie off at Meme's and on to work I went. I thought nothing more of it being my birthday but Anita, my cousin and co-worker, rememered and brought me a present!! As I was telling her she shouldn't have gotten me anything, all I was thinking was how much I just wanted to rip into the bag and see what I got! HA! This is what I found.......
These CUTE flip flops!!
Now don't be judging my toe nail polish or the chubbiness of my feet! HA! These flip flops are so comfortable and I LOVE them! So I'm sending out a BIG THANK YOU to Anita & little Mikaya for helping my feet stay comfortable and in style in this heat!
I also got another great suprise a few days after that, but this one wasn't for my birthday. My sister-in-law, Laurie, stopped by my house and brought me a small gift bag. She didn't really say what it was for but just told me to go ahead and open it. So I did and I was super excited to find this.......
They got this for me as a thank you for taking pictures of my nieces, Harley and Abbey, that she entered in the Watermelon pageant for the photogenic contest. Laurie told me that since I was an "award winning photographer" (HA! HA!) I deserved to look the part! I LOVE my new strap and I hope they know that they did NOT have to give me anything at all for taking their pictures. I'm very proud to do anything I can for my family and I enjoyed doing it! THANK YOU for the strap, I appreciate it and will think of ya'll everytime I look at it!!!
I'm so blessed to have such a wonderful family!!!
