I realized that I totally let Rachel's birthday blog blow by. I felt like I should comment on it since I know Michelle had asked about it. Her day was good for her I believe. We had actually had our "Birthday dinner" on Saturday to celebrate her birthday and her daddy's on the 21st. I'd love to think I could tell her everyday to "get up, its your birthday"...but somehow, I don't think it would work. She was able to open her gifts before my leaving for the office. I know that she was genuinely surprised by one of her gifts. We had purchased her a month of 'tanning' visits in order to get her ready for her prom dress. She is like me, if you don't tan a little, the 7 Dwarfs trail behind you singing "Whistle while you work". The other gift we gave her was a Fondue Pot...Yes, we gave an 18 year old a Fondue Pot. It was what she wanted, but I can assure you that I might as well have been hunting a needle in a haystack. For whatever reason, they are NOT easy to find. She LOVED it though. With Wednesday being our usual church evening, she had dinner plans with her boyfriend. They ate at OUTBACK, her favorite! (I'm sure you appreciate that, Michelle...Good'ay) :-) Overall, it was a peaceful way to ring in her 18th year. I remember all too well where I was when I first rang it in.
