Happy Birthday to Me!!!

I know this is a little late, for those of you who don't know, my birthday was on Aug 29th. I had to wait to celebrate my birthday for 2 reasons, first my mom's package didn't come before my birthday and second I was on the road on my birthday. But hey, at least I got to drive through the beautiful countryside of Iraq on my bday... what more could I ask for?!? My mom's box finally came and the fun began...

Mom sent me a pinata... he was scary!!!

This little guy is now named DB (deployment bear), he will go everywhere with me

ALL my gifts... THANK YOU MOM!!!

Notice the 'Exit' sign... It's a good thing they make us put that by our doors! These rooms are so big I don't think I could figure out where to exit!!!

My 2 friends I celebrated with... Liesl and SFC Manzanares
Mom, thank you so much for always thinking of me and making holidays (yes, my birthday is a holiday, duh!) special for me no matter where I am! I'm so glad I have friends that will 'play' with me and make things like birthdays fun when they are usually forgotten in places like this. I am very lucky to have the friends and family that I do! I love you all!!!
