Happy Birthday to Dwana

No one seems to believe she's hit 29. Normally, people think she's a lot younger because she's a lot shorter than her husband and naturally baby-faced; but I think now it's just people are used to the 29-and-holding that others try after hitting 3-0. Really, though, you do have to pass 29 on the way. :) Anyway, here's to the birthday girl.

She called into a radio station this morning and won a $100 gift card to Wal-Mart. So, she and Eric are in good stead for the dash to the store at 5 am the day after Thanksgiving. She celebrated with her parents last weekend and I took her out to eat on Tuesday, and she and Eric are celebrating this weekend, so she's getting a weeklong celebration. :)

At work we ordered pizza and had cookies (she prefers them to cake) and her co-workers gave her a Mickey Mouse charm for her charm bracelet. As her boss said, she never seems to get overloaded on Disney. :) [We shake our heads, because we don't get it ourselves, but hey, that makes it easy to make her happy.] The woman in charge of planning had a friend who was going to Disneyworld pick it up, since they're hard to find around here. She also got a journal with a kitty on the cover. Needless to say, Dwana was quite happy with how the day went. It's a shame she had class, but hey, at least she's had several days of celebration to make up for it.
