June 18th I turned twenty-something (as Erik stated on the invites no one got lol). Right before Erik came home he blurted out that he had been planning a surprise birthday party. With the 
surprise ruined I was debating on going through with it, but I figured it would be great to get to see everyone before we leave; one last hoorah. The day before the party Erik said that he had to run to the airport to pick up his friend who was ETSing from Hawaii. I opted to sleep in and roll out of bed only till Erik practically forced me to get ready for breakfast. When he arrived at home I nearly fell out of my skin to see Annie standing at my front door (with a cast!). I couldn't believe these two sneaky snickers kept this from me, they did a good job. It was already starting to be the best birthday!!!
As part of Erik's grand scheme he instructed me to go shopping with Annie and find the most colorful,
full of life dress for the party. No problem, I'd been wanting to go to the mall, however finding the perfect dress was harder than I thought it would be. After nearly a whole day of perusing the mall we finally settled on a cute little yellow dress, which suited me and the occasion nicely. The day was not over, though, Erik advised me and Annie that we were barred from the house due to another tiny detail he was clanging away at. So we met up with Pat and Angela for some On The Border. Of course everyone at the table knew what Erik was trying to accomplish and all I could do was roll my eyes at how erroneously long it was taking him.

I had my fav peeps surrounding me, minus a few I so wish could have been there, and all those peeps were helping to make my day special. I got my nails did with Kaylah and did a whole lot of nothing before heading to BlackFinns at the Highlands. The words that I would use to describe that night would be: fabulous, awesome, super, great, incredible, and one of the best nights of my life. Erik made that night all about me, but it ended up feeling like it was about the blessings this life has given me. I received some awesome gifts, but the one that meant the most was being loved by such amazing people, especially my hubbster. Oh, that surprise that Erik was peddling away at was huge pictures he had blown up of me and placed around the restaraunt. Gangsta Daisy was a major hit!!! I keep wondering what I did to deserve these incredible people in my life. Thank you for a wonderful birthday and the memory that will last my whole life...
