The Luebbert's: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!!!

Today started out just like any other birthday. The phone started ringing at 6:15 this morning and has continued throughout the day from various family members and friends. (Thanks again to all of you!) Ryan seemed to have forgotten that it was my birthday today, because when he finally rolled out of bed, the first thing he said to me was, "Where are your car keys?" He then went to get a microwave out of my trunk. He then came in and started to get ready to shower. I looked at him and said, "Bye" he nicely said "bye" back. I stood there and said, "bye" again. His response was, "I said bye. My throat hurts." So, I said, "bye" one last time. This time, he yelled really loud-"BYE!" I just stood there, puckered out my bottom lip and turned to leave. The light then came on and he quickly said, "Oh, I am sorry. Happy birthday!" Grabbed me and gave me a hug. He is such a morning person.

Janelle then showed up at the house to head to work. She got into my car-handed me a card. It was really cute, then gave me a 30 beaded necklace to wear. She had a bag and my response was, "Oh great! You are going to make me look like a dork today!" She laughed. But that is all she had for me to wear. She also bought me doughnuts. That brightened my morning.

When I got to school, the next chapter began. I went to Janelle's room to get my doughnuts, then headed up to my room. Low and behold there was this lovely sign outside my door! There was confetti outside my door and I saw in my dark room, balloons hanging down from the inside. I yelled something down the hall to my 4 lovely co-workers, but I don't remember what. I looked into Heather's room and she just smiled! I then went into my room and found a mess of all messes! Confetti all over the floor leading to my desk, behind my desk, and all over my desk and computer desk. They all laughed and then one pointed out they all had black on today. (I hadn't seen them all together yet.) THEN! Heather informed me that little Miss Janelle was in on the whole thing. I immediately said, "How, we left right after school yesterday?" and while I said that, I remembered that was Janelle's idea to leave after school. So, I headed back downstairs to THANK her dearly!

I have attached pictures of my room and the 4 culprits! Janelle the accomplice is not pictured.

Thanks for making my 30th birthday so special ladies! (And don't think I won't forget in 7 years Miss Pringer when you turn 30! (She keeps reminding me she has 7 more years to go!))
