Well, it's official...I'm two shy of thirty!! I turned 28 years old this weekend and had myself some lovely times frolicking about to and fro. I was able to gaze upon a mullet enhanced Ben Stiller, take part in a present unwrapping party via phone line with my amazing parents, devour some delish veggies and fish tacos, enjoy some Kihea generosity, ooh and awe after being surprised by a sweet and delightful SURPRISE party thrown by my third graders and parentals with pin-the-tail on the doggy AND a birthday cake in tow, fill in my grade book with all A's for my sweet and delightful third graders, learn first aid techniques using simple bubble wrap when one's foot accidentally makes its way into a George Forman grill (If my years don't make me smarter, "The Office" will!), and enjoy some darn fine company that spoiled me completely for my special day :)

Huh?

What a grand weekend in deed! Sadly I must now wait for another year to pass before I may celebrate another. I am so blessed and each year God continues to show me his generosity and grace...and I know I don't deserve it! He has given me a family like no other and has now blessed me with yet another...Maui style :) Thanks everybody for making my day so GRAND :)
