Birthday party

Well it has almost been a week since the party for Amberlee... she is now 21... wow... am i getting old.... maybe just looking it.... well we were going to have her party the saturday before thanksgiving but my wife, Tammy came down with the flu and the doctor said, "No contact with people" so it got postponed a week.. and her suprise... it was so funny watching her expression on her face the actual day of her birthday as we gave her presents to her.. i think she kind of thought wow is this all i am getting for turning 21,,, a DVD, journals and some ear rings.. yep my family really went all out..... little did she know... now its saturday evening all her friends, family and her boyfriends family are there... and its time to blow out the candle on the cake and open presents... as she is opening the final one it looks like a piece of luggage... she makes a comment about is this a hint to move out... then someone says open it.. in side was a Mandolin.. the look on her face was priceless... in fact if ya go the Aunt Joann's blog she has a lot more pics of the party including her tears of happyness... even Tammy's tears of joy... i love it.. a week later and i have heard her play it a few times.. it sounds good... i am really impressed... i guess its harder than a guitar because the strings are reversed... anyways i am very proud of her... she is my little princess all grown up.....
