Happy Birthday to Me!

Yes, I know, my birthday was in February. But, my darling friends decided to surprise me with Twins tickets for this last Sunday. (That's the trouble with a February birthday - it's not baseball season. But waiting isn't all bad. It made Chelleybutton come visit me twice. :) ) So Chelleybutton, Hobbitsister, my Diana, Erma, Scout, and I prayed for no rain and headed to the ballpark. My boys didn't win, but my girls and I had fun anyway. The one sad thing was that I had to be so far away from Chelleybutton, when here she had come all that way, but a girl only has two sides when she sits at a table, I mean, in a row. And my poor Diana needed help following sometimes, so it was good that I was there to be her own personal baseball guru.
Let's see. What else? Well, Chelleybutton bought me a helmet sundae, which was very exciting, and she and Hobbitsister made a birthday tiara for me out of computer printed tickets and band-aids. I felt very classy. It never did rain, thankfully - instead it started out hot and humid then turned to cold and windy. My boyfriend made a great play at second, Hobbitsister's third hero had an awesome play in the outfield, and Jim Thome hit a HUGE 590th homerun that warranted a curtain call.
All in all, it was a good birthday. :)
