My 40th Birthday!

Well, It came and went....and I inevitably turned 40! YIKeS. Everyone keeps asking if I feel any different, I have to say "no" at the moment. Adding the disclaimer; at this age...it could all go south in a heartbeat on any given day. QUICK from what I hear. So I'm praying for fair seas and good weather from here on out.
It was a great weekend. Friday night we went to the Coast Guard dinner for all the newly initiated Chief's. It was nice seeing everyone again and we got a chance to smooze, dress up and get a free meal! Saturday Sylvin surprised me by taking me out to a karaoke bar where I was even more surprised by friends being there.
It wasn't the way I had envisioned my 40th to play out, I had wanted to be in Vegas partying with my family and friends from home (you all know who you are!) and instead of a very LONG plane ride and spending way too MUCH money....I was blessed with a intimate crowd that cared enough to show up and support me today. I'm such a lucky girl. Blessed with a husband that adores me, children that are the apple of our eyes and now I feel I've made even a few more friends to add to the list of treasured ones I already possess. Life just keeps getting sweeter. My love from the bottom of my heart goes out to all of you.

Had to add this one....they steal a little more of my heart every day...if that's even possible! Sy on the Right, Eve cheesin on the Left
