And Then She Turned 40...

Can you believe it?! 40! And it was a great birthday with family and sweet friends. It all started with an unexpected visit from my life long friend Stephanie. Our mamas were expecting together 40 years ago. And Stephanie was born only a few short weeks after me. We've been together ever since.  It was sweet to have her here and boy my girls can't get enough of Mrs. Stephanie...especially when she gives them fancy manicures and pedicures!  They had purple, glitter, flowers and butterflies.  So exciting.


Thanks for coming Stephanie. Happy 40th to you too.  I love you!
Saturday night - the Eve of my birthday - Troy took me to a nice dinner and shopping.  We had a great night out together.  
And then Sunday, my birthday, was full of church and friends.
After church we were unexpectedly invited to lunch with dear friends.  It was a special treat at the restaurant owned by our new friend Zara who just came to know Christ.  very special.
Sunday evening was a great time at home group surrounded by friends. And then came today...my dear friend Renee kept the girls while I met Mom and Sarah at a really neat restaurant in Dallas - Rise.
It is all Souffles.  Souffle entree, souffle dessert.  mmmmm.  We shared 5 different souffles including 1 chocolate and 1 raspberry.  favorite!
It was a sweet time together. 



Thank you Mom and Sarah for making me feel so special.  I love you so much.
It certainly was a Happy Birthday to me.  
Thank you everybody.
