Fame & Pocahontas

My friend Becky & I surprised our friend Emma for her birthday at the movie theatere today (we taped the sign at the movie theatre entrance). She thought she was going to see Fame with her little sister, which she was, but what she didn't know is that we were going to be there, too. It was awesome. We've been friends for twelve years, since our first year of preschool. I'm so glad we've stuck together all this time-- we're the coolest dorks you'll ever meet.

And then I got home after some maniacal musical madness & Mexican meals (I enjoy alliterations) to find possibly the most gorgeous envelope I have ever received...

...which contained a note written in the best handwriting I have ever come across...

(and I'm not just saying this because you give me free stuff, Emily Rose, it's truly lovely)

...and also, my were in the envelope! If you don't remember, I won them a while back. They are gorgeous, Breezy & Emily Rose are so talented.

So this was a fairly eventful day for me. I mean, how often do you get to throw a surprise party and receive paper dolls on the same day?

It sounds like you had a good time surprising Emma (Happy Birthday, Emma!) . . . we've done a couple surprise birthday parties - they are such fun!

I'm very happy that you like the paper dolls and enjoyed my little note! :)

Joyfully in Christ,
Emily Rose
