Let the Birthday Celebrations Begin!

The birthday is still almost two weeks away, but The Traveling Hillbilly got the first birthday present! And what a present it was. Two of the Traveling Hillbilly's best friends went in on a new ipod Shuffle, personalized just for The Traveling Hillbilly. This hillbilly didn't even know you could have ipod's "engraved." The best part of the gift though, was the music they downloaded on the ipod. The first song? "One Night in Bangkok" of course, in celebration of the upcoming trip to Thailand. That was followed by hours of great tunes, each one with special meaning. The final song, was a fabulous birthday tune. While the Traveling Hillbilly loved the gift, I was most touched by the time, effort and thought that went into it. These are two friends who really know this hillbilly and put a lot of love into this. It is truly a special gift and I'll treasure it always. I can't wait to run through the streets of Bangkok, listening to the tunes and thinking about how lucky I am to have such great friends.

Don't you just love those birthdays that last the whole month long?!
