40 with Friends :)

For months and months, Troy 

has talked about hosting a birthday 

party for my 40th.  I kept joking that

he couldn't pull it off because I have

too many friends and I don't want

anybody to get their feelings hurt!  ha!

But I was actually kinda serious. 

I am BLESSED beyond my wildest

dreams in the "friend" department.  

I finally agreed to letting him set

up a "girls night" with my dearest

friends that I'm with the most 

as of late.  He even ordered me a CAKE!

A super duper cute cake for it!!!

I was so excited when I saw it!!!

My sweet, handsome husband

got the numbers for my closest 

friends from my phone and texted them 

about a birthday dinner for me.

How cute is that?!?

It was so funny to hear how it all

went down after the fact because he texted

 them, heard back from them, got it all

set up...then Walker nonchalantly

says, "Our choir concert that was 

cancelled got moved to Monday, March 2nd."

THAT's the date Troy had set up

the birthday dinner with all my girls for!

SOOOOOO, he had to start 

texting them all AGAiN!

I can't believe he just didn't quit

at that point!!!!!!!!!!!

I love him.

And my friends love him, too.  

I didn't know who all was able

to come so it was fun seeing 

each person as they got there.

I love these ladies:)

My 40th with Friends :)

This crazy waiter kept

us entertained ;)

Then since I was so happy 

to have my sweet friends

at my "party", I took a selfie

with each one:)

Gotta do the Sheka Shake!  ;)

Love me some Ang:)

Haley especially loved these (;

All of the above pictures are my 

dear friends that I've made through

Walker!!!  Isn't that crazy?  Mom friends:)

Many that go all the way back to 

Pre-K and Kinder, some baseball

and then a few through football.

Blessed, Oh So Blessed!

We hold each other accountable

and look out for our boys ...

from serious stuff, to tests, to

who is going to make their son

tuck in their shirts for the upcoming 

choir concert or not;)

I love each of them.  

My absolutely precious and wonderful

and best teacher friends also came. 

I love my team so much.

God knew I needed these young 

girls in my life on the daily.

They are the real deal and I'm

so thankful for them every single day.

And last but certainly not least, 

my Kelli G!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love and know this girl as if 

she were my own flesh and blood.

My longest, best, dearest, 

knows me better than anyone friend.

We are both 40 now and really 

working on smiles that don't 

show our wrinkles ;)

LOL!  She is my funniest friend.

We get each other's humor and 

someday Brian and Troy might

get our humor, too! ;)

I loved this night so much!!!

I have INCREDIBLE friends near and far

from ALLLLL stages of my life.  

I wish I could have had my NaNa's, my Hoodies

and many others there.  God has been 

so good to me with friends!!!  

I could write about each one of these

friends and how much I love them.  

40 is FuN with FRieNDS!!!!

Sheka was a riot at my party!!!!!

My friends keep my 

heart FULL at Forty!!!!!!!!!
