Thanks love, it was the Perfect-Fairytale Birthday!!

August 31,1984. I can’t believe I am 25?!! Really?! 25!! That sound so much older than 24!! I am half way to 50. Getting old is the best, right????!!! I swear though the older I get the more fun I have… I suppose life can only get better with age…
I had such a perfect Birthday. I was spoiled by my mom and sister (Thank you so much!! You really shouldn't have).
Then I was really spoiled by my honey! After work Everett surprised me with flowers, a beautiful Cameo necklace and a nice dress for dinner (he picked out all by himself). It was an incredible night! We went to this amazing European restaurant; it really felt like we spent the evening in Europe. It was absolutely perfect, perfect, perfect, and perfect!! If we were in a fairytale it would feel exactly like this night!! After dinner we went home and he had me go in the other room for my last birthday surprise… He decorated our room with loads of candles and put red rose peddles all over our bed and then… THE END!! Thanks again, Ever’s for the PERFECT day!! xoxo
