Birthday I Remember Best

Which Birthday do you remember best?

I have written about my Birthdays before but I will choose this one. It was my Senior Year and I my Birthday was 4 days before Christmas. My boyfriend Gil picked me up and said we were going out for my Birthday. He stopped by our friend Duane's house and told me to go in with him. We stepped in and people yelled surprised. One man, Ben jumped up from behind the Christmas Tree and said: "Surprise!" My friends Donna, Cindy, Diane, Duane, Ben and some other guy named Ed was there. We had a couple of beers. Two guys named Greg and Larry dropped by. Gil bought me a rose necklace and earrings to match, I got a purse and scarf, too. We had cake and ice cream and played Rock music. We danced. It was a good party. Ben fell down. Someone had to take Ben home. You can guess why. It was a party I will always remember.
