HAPPY 25th To ME!!

Ok, so i'm a Quater of a Century now!!! How scary is that?!? My birthday started out well. After a late night on Friday of dinner at Greek, and a 1020pm viewing of "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" (great movie) at Town Centre, I was really excited to get to sleep in!!!

I had to work from 2-6pm on my birthday. When i got to the store, there were balloons waiting for me from Sylvia & chocolates from Mary Anne ..::Thanks Guys!!::.. It was a rather quick shift at work, ending with watching 'Legally Blonde'! ..::LOVE that movie!!::.. After work i ran home to get ready for my 'mystery dinner'.

I arrived at the Twins house around 730pm, and hopped into the car to pick nie up from work. Once Lanie was in the car I was instructed to close my eyes - because they forgot the blindfold - until we arrived at our destination. They wanted me to walk with my eyes closed to the restaurant, but i refused! So we ended up at Grazie for dinner - in honour of Pepper :) We had a bit of a wait, but it was well worth it. Between the Azzurro (Purple Haze Martini), the Brushetta Pizza, and the Milano pasta, it was mmm mmm good!!!

After dinner we went back to the Twins house for presents and cake! The cake was beautiful with my name in PINK frosting :) And the presents ...from Len I got a pair of Playboy Bunny earrings, and a MAC Lipglass. From Jennie & the Twins i got a pair of pjs with martini's on them, and a silk top from Old Navy. A sparkly pink hand bag from Old Navy, a pair of towel that have ballet slippers embroydered on them-for competition, an awesome pink bling ring!! A Playboy Bunny toggle bracelet and the piece de resistance ........drumroll please.........a heart shapped TIFFANY's necklace!!!

So after all the presents and the cake, we headed out to Kareoke!! However once we got to our usual haunt, there was going to be a 45 minute wait...so we decided to go upstairs and try another kareoke place. So we went in to Twister Kareoke and they said it'd be a 10 minute wait. So we waitied and it was definatly worth it cuz this place was MUCH less dingy and the people were nicer and they seemed to have a better song selection. So all in all it was a great choice cuz we now have a new kareoke place!!

We got back to the Twins house around 3am, and then up at 7am to drive the Twins and Len to the airport as they left for Panama that day. After that Jennie and I went to Walmart so i could get my dad's Father's Day present. Then i convinced Jennie to come to the studio with me and help me take the pictures off the walls, and then it was time to go home. Once at home, even tho i was SO tired, i decided to start the studio scrapbook. And that kept me busy till about 5pm from 11am, and then i napped, watched tv, and went to bed. It was a crazy long weekend, but a good one! ..::Thanks to everyone for everyone! I Love You All!!::..
