Thank you so much everybody for the wonderful birthday wishes!
What a nice surprise to come home to! I was away for my bday in Phoenix, but was still able to celebrate with my folks who happened to be there at the same time! LOL!
They came to pick me up at the hotel and take me to dinner, and while pulling away from the front door, decided to go ahead and eat dinner right there at the restaurant on site, who's front door happened to be 20 ft away from the hotel door. So I ended up thanking them profusely for driving me to dinner.
I came home late last night to my family, who had beautiful cards and gifts and a very soft, warm, fuzzy doggy!
And...
Happy Birthday Michael!
I have a special gift just for you!
Ya ready for it?
