November 6

Tonight, Nikki and I went downtown to celebrate her 40th birthday.

We started off with fall-colored pedicures at Orchidee, moved on to dinner with margaritas at Alberto's, and finished with chocolate chip cookies at Primrose Bakery.

It was, in short, a lovely evening with a really great friend. I so appreciate her for the person she is and I am grateful that she's in my life. And I'm very thankful that I got to help her celebrate a milestone birthday. 

Good, faithful friends are truly amazing blessings.
