{oh happy day...}

for my (hhmm, hhmm...) 29th birthday all i wished for was to have R pattz.

and the gang back in my life...and you know what, THEY DELIVERED!

my sisters and i (my mom came a little later:) stood out in the freezing cold, for an

undisclosed amount of time, to ensure the best seats possible for the midnight showing of

NEW MOON.

we froze, i got stung by a bee, we got in a few showdowns with some late comers trying to

butt in line, (oh no you didn't...)

and fell in love all over.

and it only got better the 2nd and 3rd time around!

even though jacob was darling and had a six pack that gave the hulk a run for his mula,

we are all still loyal to our first choice (and the winning team, i might add)

edward cullen.

love you sissies and mamma, thanks for making my bday such good times!

and thank you kenny, tate and crew, for topping off the weekend with nothin but love.

what a lucky girl i am!
