My Birthday!

I know it's been awhile but I never got around to blogging about my birthday so I figure better late than never. Chris worked really hard to make it special and it really was!

My birthday was on a Saturday (a busy day for us) and half of our Home was on the road so to make up for it, Chris took me to Mexico City for an evening of music at the Pedregal Home for our friends and supporters. I'd never been to one so that was nice. I got to see KK (yay! It had been forever!) and about halfway through the music, Jerry asks for a volunteer from the audience. Of course I kept myself nicely hidden but Jerry spotted me and asked me to come up front. To my total surprise, they sang "Las Mananitas" for me and then he went on to sing "Special Lady" and "Have I told you lately that I love you". Turns out Chris had worked it out for him to sing for me ahead of time. It was so sweet! I had no idea!

Jerry made Chris and I dance in front of everyone which was rather embarrassing but so sweet!

The following Monday was our rest day and Jamie, Oliver and Cristina came to spend the day with us. We hung out by the pool together, went to get my nails done and then they took me to
"Marco Polo", a cute Italian place that Simona had told me about for dinner. It was SO sweet of them; we had a great time.

He was so good, sat in his chair without whining throughout all dinner.
I LOVE chocolate cake!

Chris wasn't able to join us for dinner as he had work to do and when we got home I found out that he had planned a surprise area party for me. I quickly got dressed and then TONS of people started showing up. It was a lot of fun. Thanks to everybody who came and got me presents and wished me a happy birthday. I had a very good one!

A few presents. Chellie got me these spider earrings which was hilarious as I can't wear earrings and HATE spiders with a passion.

I was too busy having fun to take pics of the party so I only have these two.

I was so happy that Paula showed up, she made sure I had a good time.

Another great surprise was that Dave & Stephy came with the little cousin and Danny & Irene showed up too. I was so happy as I wasn't sure Irene could make it out here cuz she's about to pop.


Anyhow, Chris worked SO hard to plan the party, stayed up till 6:00 am cleaning, then got up to make breakfast for everyone. He's so wonderful! I love you Honey! Thanks for a great birthday.
