My Surprise 30th B-Day

So,.. my wonderful friends threw me a surprise 30th birthday party,...
2 months AFTER my birthday!
It was very impressive, and even considering that only one of them live in the area!! (sorry Bridget!)
Clarence didn't even know!
There were over 300 pictures taken, it was SO hard to figure out which ones to go on the blog. So,.. I want to go ahead and apologize, because there was just no possible way to get a pic of everyone on here. But,... I appreciate EVERYONE who came and I got an awesome picture album from Shannon & Wes, so I will put all of my birthday pictures in that and treasure the memories FOREVER!!

And,... FYI - I WAS dressed VERY cute, in a brand new black dress, but Jodie's hubby made me this awesome 30th shirt and crown, and since I am a meanie to my friends on their birthday, they FORCED me into it!! ha ha

So,.. here is the family!

Here are my girls!!
I am so blessed that I have such great girl friends!

My cousin Daisy was there! She was a HUGE help with the kiddos!!

The Boys in the Hood!

Here is Clarence with my Uncle Pete.

Me with Big Daddy, Lexi, & Grandma Cissy.

Apparently, when you get old, you MUST wear a mu-mu!
So,... here's mine!

Thanks to everyone that came, wanted to come, and all of those that sent wonderful birthday wishes - even back in January!!
I had a BLAST and am SO blessed for everyone in my life!
