Saturday night Drew and I and our dear friends Joe-Z and Lindsey went out to celebrate my Golden Birthday! I turn 28 on the 28th today! 28. Wow. Anyway, we dined and dished and it was fabulous just as I knew it would be.
Afterwards Drew and I were headed to target to shop for my birthday gift... a bicycle woo hoo!!! What? Doesn't every full term baby mama want a bike?
Anyway, while we were in the store Lindsey called and said we forgot to take a group shot of the four of us to commemorate my big day (she's a photog so she notices things like that) and that they were coming over to Target real quick so we could take a pic.
I told her what isle we were in and Drew and I wandered until we found them.
She and Joe-Z were standing at the end of an aisle looking like they had just bumped into someone they knew when I spotted them. SIDE NOTE: I was wearing my new bike helmet and carrying a stuffed lamb we were considering buying for our new addition. I pretty much looked like a total goober.
Drew and I headed over toward them and just as we rounded the corner I see a big group of people all gathered there. And then they all started singing! Happy Birthday to me! And Lindsey whips out this HUGE DELICIOUS looking cupcake. Candle and all. I was so touched. What was even better was when I realized that I didn't know a single one of the people singing (other than L + J)! Lindsey and Joe-Z had solicited like 20 random people to stop what they were doing and sing to me in the middle of Target. When I realized that I cried.
That's what I do when someone does something really really nice for me. Something that says "I love you and here's how much." I love y'all too.
Thank you Lindsey and Joe-Z for making it a birthday to remember always.
Tonight, dinner with my main squeeze. And maybe some labor pains yes? Yeah, prolly not huh?
