BEST-EST FRIENDS

Oh yes, we had so much fun with us girls, we almost forgot our husbands were there. 

I have the BEST-EST FRIENDS in the WHOLE WORLD!!!  Friday (9/3) to my surprise, my best-est friends in the whole world threw me a surprise 40th Birthday Party.  (Yes, I turned 40 years old this year.)  I really was surprised seeing that my birthday was 2 weeks earlier.  The Pulsipher's had tried to get us to go out 2 weeks prior, but we were so busy with soccer every night we couldn't plan anything until 2 weeks after my birthday.  I did not suspect anything until I walked in Ivory's house and Rebecca and Ivory got a little weird. (Weird meaning; they couldn't keep these funny little grins off their faces)  They kept repeating- "OKAY- lets give her her present now!!"  Seconds later everyone yelled surprise!!

The best part about the whole night (besides the company) and what makes them the the bes-test friends in the WHOLE WORLD - was not so much the "SURPRISE" of the party (because who at the age of 40 aspires to have a "SURPRISE PARTY' thrown on their behalf?) but their undertaking of the whole night.  They researched and dug up information and planned and prepared to make it just right for me.  The whole night was GLUTEN FREE and CASEIN FREE- which is quit a challenge in the kitchen, (bear in mind, gluten is hidden in hundreds of other names besides the obvious.)    I did not have to worry about any of the ingredients!!  (Rebecca had been quizzing me saying she had a friend of a friend who just found out they had celiacs as well and needed some advise.  If she only knew her friend weighed on my inner being all week and I felt so guilty I had not tried to get a hold of this so called friend to help her through her first few weeks with the new Gluten free diet.)  They totally tricked me!!

They even had a chocolate birthday dessert as well.  Yum Yum!!

We had a good time and missed a few of my other favorite people in the whole world!!!!

Girls if you are reading this THANK YOU for the great evening and thanks for the lifetime friendships!!
