Happy Birthday to ME.....



it was yesterday and I have decided that I am 29 and holding strong..... I am having my last birthday. From here on out October 7 will be celebrate Drea day minus any numbers! ( I really don't mind that the big 30 is now on count down but I may have a change of heart come this time next year!) I had a great day of eating lunch with my daddy and my aunt Dee and then going to eat supper with Granny and Marquetta. JD stopped and bought me a cheesecake and Marquetta bought me some petit-fors (she couldn't believe he thought to get me a cake- we were all impressed :)

This year was much better than last. For fear of a jinx- I didn't complete this post until I woke up this morning. Melissa text me yesterday and I told her I was thankful that she was still here to be able to text me. My birthday will forever be a reminder of that terrible day- and a reminder of the Lord's mercy and blessings of all the good that we have seen in the outcome of that day! I was telling my aunt all about the events and about choked up and had chills running all over me. I told her it is one of those days you will remember forever. As I have said before "God is Great, God is Good!"

Have a good one! I will do a Smokies update later- I have got to get ready to go celebrate ME some more :)-
