Happy Birthday

Today was my birthday, a fact which I didn't share with anybody here at school until Friday. Even then I only told one person. Why, you ask? I don't know. I haven't really made a big deal out of my birthday for several years now. I don't like having people fuss over me, which is probably a pride issue. Anyway, the one person I told it to, bless her heart, managed to tell pretty much the whole school and in two days she pulled together a surprise party. I was sufficiently surprised! Here are some pictures from the festivities:


Me with Judy, the one who made it all happen.


She had asked me what I liked to eat and I said lasagna, so we had at least two types of lasagna and several other pasta dishes to feed everyone who came, as well as salads and garlic bread. It was AMAZING! Then we had a chocolate cake and some cupcakes:


And I got some cards and presents as well! My friends the Bs got their hands on my Facebook photo and made a card for me : )


And here is a majority of the crowd who came, minus some who had already left and all of the kids (I think they were outside playing).


THANK YOU EVERYONE!!!
