Don't fear the cowbell.........

Yep, another blog.... just because we didn't want Doug to miss everyone in Dallas (or at least me and Cindy) too much!

My awesome friends

Cindy gave me a birthday party Friday night, and it could not have been more perfect. Well, I suppose it might have been a little more perfect if Cindy hadn't decided to try on her too-small jeans to show us exactly how they didn't fit..... but I think Jon has recovered now. Lizzie and Jonathan left before the donning of the jeans and the sighting of the thong, so they were spared.

I got a wonderful bouquet - of cards from my friends! Tamra got a beautiful red vase and it had little floral picks in there holding all the cards (with sour Starburtst to hold them up - mmmmm). Each card had a "certificate" for something - free babysitting from Jenny, fresh cut flowers from Jenn, a gourmet meal cooked by Priscilla, a photo session at the pumpkin patch for Lucy from Cindy, Thai takeout from Martha, sour Skittles and flowers from Cristina... throw in the bottle of Riesling from Thresa, the most-comfy-in-the-world Gap Body yoga pants from Lizzie, and a totally delicious chocolate mousse cake from Whole Foods... and, well, a girl couldn't have felt more loved!! OH - but I forgot the coolest thing of all - Jon and Audra promised to invite "my George" to all future heme/onc gatherings! Now THAT'S a true friend!

Really, it was awesome. And as usual, Cindy's spread was impressive. Including the quince paste, cheese and crakcer/bread tray. Of course, we all had to make fun of Cindy for saying "quince" like "keen-say" instead of like "kwinse". Cindy you know I love you, catorce paste and all.

I have the best friends in the whole world! I am one lucky girl. Of course, did I bring my camera? Nooooooo. I had it out on the counter, ready to go and everything. And that's where it stayed all night. But I think someone took photos. Jenn, Cindy, if you have any, please post. I am hoping no one snapped any photos during the jeans incident!!

    I am glad you had such a wonderful evening - just reading about it made me more homesick for Texas than I have been since I got here. I could really picture all of you having fun.

    I really do miss all of you tremendously - the folks here are very nice, but no one can compare to the Wednesday crew.

    Doug
