I was pleased to get cards from my Grandpa and from Jon's family. I felt really loved when Jon made me a cake from scratch. And mom spoiled me as always by taking me to lunch, then shopping, where I got $300 worth of clothes and a pair of shoes from Randy, then we had dinner at The Keg, which was wonderful food. But nothing, absolutely nothing prepared me for what my friends did.
So Deon, Brianne and Xtina planned me a great surprise party. Twenty-one years of life and I have never had a surprise party. When we got home from dinner, I walked in and saw a strange orange light and then was over whelmed with "SURPRISE!!" and horns blowing. I told myself mentally not to scream, but, ha, that didn't happen. Brianne has a great picture of me screaming in shock but I haven't seen it. I guess its revenge for that Halloween party picture I got of her.
They decorated the kitchen/dinning area with music notes and CD/Record decorations, hung pink and black streamers, and blew up so many balloons that they filled the kitchen ceiling. There was money and confetti in those balloons too. And the cake, I can't even describe how I felt when I saw it. It was an amazing cake:

It was all overwhelming. We had a pinata, Deon bought a bottle of champagne, there was pizza for everyone and ice cream too. Brianne stuffed the pinata full of so much great candy. I'm really at a loss for what to say about it.
Brianne got me a super soft Chococat blanket and some Chococat wall stickies for the bath room. Jon said I can't put them on the car. Everyone put in money for the cake, which had to be amazingly expensive, I got lots of cards and gift cards and money.
I don't really know what to say. It was amazing. I love my friends so much. I'll never forget this birthday.
