I am so glad that you have such an amazing friend that would lavish such love on you, although you are totally deserving of it :)<br />I must admit I feel such sadness that I missed this incredible occasion. What a memory you all created together. One I'm sure you will never forget and hopefully channel when you face your next surgery. So happy for you and Andrea. If I ever get the opportunity again I will make it happen no matter what!!!<br />Love always,<br /><br />TerriLa Dolfinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10890526795159739411noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7674180967642782492.post-61683699941249367042014-06-26T11:33:39.130-05:002014-06-26T11:33:39.130-05:00Gorgeous!
