A Birthday Surprise...Almost!

Monday is hubby's birthday. He is a huge fan of Larry The Cable Guy. When I heard that he was coming to town I was excited to be able to get a chance at advanced tickets. He was planning with his employees this afternoon when he will be gone for deer season and the show date came up. He wrote on the calendar that he'd be gone that week. D'oh! I had to let the cat out of the bag and tell him that he got tickets and he had to stay in town that week because I had plans for him. He was pretty excited about it. I still plan to buy him some more personalized gifts like the tree stand that he wants for deer camp as well. This will hopefully be a surprise until his birthday!!!

Birthday Package

When I was in Baltimore at Becca's house, I had forgotten to bring a book to read on the plane. I had bought some magazines at the air port gift shop. Thank goodness Becca knows me well enough that she had just the right book for me to read on the way home. It was a witty, fun, quick read and it made me wish the trip home was about an hour longer so I could've finished it. The book was called Queen of Babble by Meg Cabot. You may recognize her for her best selling young adult series, The Princess Diaries. I see you shaking your head now. Anyhow, if you haven't read this book, I would highly recommend it. It's a very fun read.

I came home this afternoon from work and there was a package on the front porch. I LOVE packages, especially when they have my name on them! (smile) Anyhow, I had some help from my lovely two year old tearing open the box and much to my surprise I had a birthday gift from my B/F/F Becca. She sent me three more Meg Cabot books!!! I was so excited to see them. I received Size 12 is not fat, Size 14 is not either, & Big Boned. Have any of you read them yet? If so what did you think of them. I'll try to get them read and reviewed here. But, don't hold your breath because I don't have a lot of time in my busy schedule for reading, but next time I take a trip, I can guarantee one thing that will be in my suitcase!!!

Thank you so much, Becca!
