Surprise Me

Today I was reminded of a particularly fantastic birthday.  Nine?  No, maybe ten. 

My family set me off on a treasure hunt.  A series of notes led me through the backyard, to a neighbor's porch, our garage, another neighbor's wood pile, behind a compost heap, and finally to my awesome birthday gift...my first 3-speed bike, light blue. 

Thank goodness for cameras.  This group of photos sums up my excitement, happiness, disbelief and joy pretty perfectly.  (Dig the track shorts and knee-highs.)  And now I bet you're thinking about your own favorite birthday memory.  I like how that works.
