Thank You So Much....

[chelsea24]

My dear friends HB and Kathie, and my hubby vetman......

Wow, to say I've overwhelmed would be putting it mildly.

I want to thank each and everyone of you from the bottom of my heart. And especially HB, Kathie and vetman for putting together the most amazing surprise birthday party. There are no words that can really express the joy and love I'm feeling in my heart.

What a shock! And Bright!!!! That flower cake you sent was spectacular! How thoughtful and what a wonderful friend to go out of your way like that. I'm going to take a picture of it tomorrow when the light is better and post it here.

I'm sitting here crying because when I think, just a year ago, I didn't know any of you, it's just astounding. Sammie, you and Hu were missed. Also, Johnny and Barb. Sorry you missed such a wonderful party. There must have been 30 people there. I can't name them all because I'll forget someone. A special thanks to TOTV because it is through this forum that I have met lifelong friends. We may have our ups and downs, but to any newbies or wannabe's reading this, this is one hell of a group of wonderful people.

Thank you isn't sufficient, but "Thank You" is all I have, my dear friends. love you, chels :beer3::wave:

To wish you a Happy, Happy Birthday!:pepper2::beer3::MOJE_whot::loco:

Chels we wish we were there to enjoy everyones company and wish you a Happy Birthday. Now take back everything you said about vetman. Well almost everything. Kathie and HB both have been on a whirlwind tour since this thing was mentioned. They are truly great ladies and you have many friends, a few geographically separated, but nonetheless thinking of you. Glad you had a great day.

F16, I would have loved seeing you and Mrs. 16. Tell her vetman and I are off to the Hard Rock to do some serious gambling. OK, I'm very happy I didn't put a pillow over his face while he slept as previously planned! LOL :laugh: You're right! He's a wonderful guy and a real keeper! Love to you and your family, chels & vetman

The look on your face, the trembling, the tears in your eyes, such a wonderful memory of surprising such a dear, wonderful, loved friend!!!!
I wouldn't have missed it for all the tea in China!

Happy birthday dear Chelsea!!!
Love you GF!!! Rondoni

[JohnnyM]

Happy Birthday Chels. So sorry we missed the party. Enjoy your weekend with Vetman and have a great time.

Triple Boy Howdy!
I was so glad to be part of your surprise party. You really looked surprised!
Chels, you should make this an annual event! :laugh:

Judy, you nut! Very few people make me laugh as much as you do. I was so happy you were there. Well, making it an annual event, as far as having a birthday, is a done deal. But somehow I think having it a "Surprise", hmmmm... I think I just might catch on! Hahahaha! :laugh:

BTW, Kathie might post some of those pictures, and fair warning... I will be the cow in the tiara! ;)

[renielarson]

My dear Cheloni

I was celebrating with you in heart and spirit although I would have rather been there in person. Hope you win big at the Hard Rock and have one of the most wonderful birthdays ever on Monday.

[KathieI]

Bright, that's a great graphic, can I steal that sometime?? You know I steal all of them, but this one is exceptional.

Wait till you see the pictures from the party, you'll hop on a plane and get here the next day, I just know it. I'll be posting them soon. Thanks for helping to make Chels' birthday so special, she was ecstatic and surprised, like a little girl. It was so much fun!

[Bernie]

Chels, Hugs & Happy Birthday. Sorry I couldn't be there to celebrate with you. Hope Nonie did enough celebration for the two us. I'm freezing my @#% of up here. You have great group of friends.

[Peazoup]

Another GREAT affair. Loved the surprised look on your face. Happy, happy birthday!!!

[beady]

Chels...the look on your face when you walked into Kathie's was priceless I hope someone got that pic....

Happy Birthday dear friend...

[KathieI]

[villages07]

Great Pix Kathie....you're getting highly skilled with your new digi-cam.

Thanks also Kathie for graciously opening up your home to host the surprise party and contributing to the ruse to get Chelsea there. Thanks also to Hyacinth for organizing the affair. It was lots of fun!!!

On to the next party.....

[Peggy D]

Cheloni really looked suprised..Congrats on a job well done..

[scottke]

Chels - Happy Birthday and looks like the party was a huge success. Best wishes.

[Mikitv]

As I said in chat last night Chels, Happy Birthday. I am astounded that you were surprised with so many of us knowing about it and no one it slip. Sorry I couldn't be there to celebrate with you but I was there in spirit. Maybe next year us two Capricorns can celebrate together.

Mik

[Hyacinth Bucket]

Kathie, thank you so much for taking and posting the pictures.

We owe you a Divorce Party, Sid has his tux here.

Donna, I think Chels was also born to wear a tiara.

HB

[Helene2008]

Kathie...great pictures....thanks for posting....looks like everyone had a wonderful time.

[nONIE]

make that 3 capricorns Mik! Sure hope you are here next year to celebrate with us. Dont feel too bad, no nibbles on our house either. Think the sub zero temps could have something to do with it???:shrug:

[Niels]

Happy Birthday Chels! :pepper2:

[barb1191]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CHELS....and many many more.

Hugs, Barb & Bill

PS: Hope you won lotsa moola at Hard Rock today; love it there. Last time I won $1200.00 there on the slots. Was so excited when I heard all the bells & whistles go off that I was looking around to see who hit it and the man next to me said, "YOU WON YOU WON." I was sooooo excited, didn't even realize I was the winner. duh can you tell that I'm a "novice" gambler? LOL

[ouma1938]

Happy Birthday Chelsea. Wish I could have been there to celebrate it with you but hopefully next year I will be. And you are so right. The wonderful friends made on TOTV will be friends for life. I have never met any of you but I feel like I know each of you and that we are friends. What a wonderful place TV is and what a wonderful thing TOTV is.:pepper2::pepper2::bowdown::bowdown:

[Barefoot]

Chels ... Happy Birthday on Monday. :MOJE_whot:
It was wonderful to see your surprise Sat night! I hope you wear your tiara when you go to the Hard Rock! And by the way, if you win lots of money, can I please have some of it?

[Sidney Lanier]

Well, did we pull it off or what? GOTCHA! And yes, you should make the tiara a regular part of your wardrobe; you have no idea how hard it was to find one that would match 'the necklace'.... :laugh: Hope you have a great day today--and an absolutely fabulous year!!!

[beady]

Happy Birthday

[chelsea24]

We returned from Hard Rock much later than expected and for me $60 bucks ahead. Vetman did much better than me, but at least I didn't lose!

Came home to lots of calls from Chicago. All in all a perfect B-Day! And Wedding Anniversary!

Thanks again for the fabulous party and for all your good wishes. love, chels;)
