Tonight, Alan, his parents, and I went out to dinner. Alan knows I like fish and seafood, so we opted for Red Lobster. I had salmon and it was de-LISH! There was plenty to bring home for lunch tomorrow, too! Gotta love that!
Alan's parents gave me some wonderful decorative plates for the kitchen, beautifully painted with roosters. I can't wait to get them on the wall! And Alan, such a good boy, gave me an iPod Touch! YAHOO! Now I can listen to tunes while I'm walking! Groovy! (Although, I will say that he made me wait until after midnight, so it was "officially" my birthday, before allowing me to open my gift! The stinker! *grin*
So anyway, October 7th is my birthday... I hope it is a beautiful day for you, too!
CHEERS!
Oh no... I'm late!!! Happy Belated Birthday Anna! Sounds like you had a wonderful day. I sure hope so anyway. Thanks for sharing!!

Those are some kick a$$ boots you got, girlfriend! HAPPY BIRTHDAY!! Got the nicest card from D.K. in the mail today. His writing so reminds me of my penpal in Alaska. Hope your Mom enjoys that darling card you made her and that she realizes that if she was the one on the mend, we'd all be dumping cards addressed to her in their mailbox. Have fun, young chickie!
