Birthday Surprises!!!!!

Hello Friends,
Well boy did I get some AWESOME surprises today:D! This morning when I first got up....Mom had all of us kids get dressed and she said that she was taking me somewhere special! So...we got in the car and got some gas from the store. Then we went by the house my Dad is helping one of the Professors from the college remodel so that he could see me. Then we headed to Wally World:D! (For those of you who are clueless about what Wally World is....It's Walmart:D!)
But anyhow.......We get to Wally World and Mom takes me to the Jewelry Department and tells me to pick out a promise ring:D! So I did! They had to send it off to be sized so I won't get it back for 4-6 weeks. But that's alright:D! THEN......Mom "SAID" she had to go to Mrs. Pierce's house to feed her lunch,but where do you suppose she snuck off to???? The Church....to get the "Fellowship Hall" (in my words Gym) ready for the SURPRISE birthday party that our homeschool group was giving me:D! Mom had one of the girls from homeschool group feed Mrs. Pierce so that she could go up to the church:D!
At two o'clock we headed over to the church ( I already knew that we were not having homeschool group at the park because Mom said since it was my Birthday and because it was really hot, they decided it would be nice to have homeschool group at the gym!)
So we walked into the "gym" and everyone shouted "SURPRISE"!!!!!!!! I was surprised! When we were eating some snacks one of my friends said; " You should have seen your face!" And I said; "What did it look like?" and she said; "RED!!!!!" Haha!!!!
Everyone brought a gift even though Mom told them not to and it made me feel REALLY special! I Loved all of the cards and gifts that I got from all of y'all down there! I REALLY loved the phone calls too!!!! I'll try to call all of you back that I didn't talk to!!!!! But any how...today was VERY special and I will always remember it!!!! :D!!!!!! I wish that y'all could have been up here to celebrate personally but I thank you for remembering my birthday when I don't remember most of y'alls!!!

Love Always,
Ashley
