Thank you!

Thank you to everyone who made my birthday so special! ♥
*hugs*
I had the most wonderful day (well, days! *g*)

I was overwhelmed by so many lovely & thoughtful emails, birthday posts, e-cards & virtual prezzies. Honestly - you've all helped to make my day so special, & I can't thank you enough.
*hugs*

I also got fic! Yay!
These wonderful & talented ladies all generously wrote birthday stories for me.

Lovely birthday McShep-ness! ♥

Mr B & I took Buddy up the woods for a lovely walk in the morning & then we had various people popping around in the afternoon for tea & cake.
lantean_drift, saffron_1 & Momma J came around & we had such a lovely time - laughter & good friends are just the best! Though I'm afraid that Bud was rather overexcited when they arrived - so many of his favourite people all together - that he did grace them with a little wee on the carpet!
Oh, Buddy!
LOL There's nothing that says 'happy birthday' like getting down on your hands & knees & cleaning up dog wee! *ggg*

Oh, & I have to share one of the prezzies that xanthelj gave me. You know that art house shot that looks like John & Rodney?

this one...

( NWS )

She only went & got me a beautifully mounted & framed copy of the original photograph!
ZOMG!!!
It's beyond exquisite. I have it on the wall next to my desk & literally can't keep my eyes off it!
It's so, so inspiring... ♥

So, I had a simply fabulous day - thank you to everyone!
*hugs*

And the excitement doesn't stop there. *g* We're off down to Somerset for a few days tomorrow. It's going to be Bud's first time staying in a hotel - hopefully without any wee accidents! (Though I'm taking carpet cleaner, just in case! *g*)
We're planning lots of lovely, long walks on the beach with our silly boy & maybe the odd cream tea too. Yum! :-)

Thank you!
