Friendship. A Photo Essay of a Sweet Birthday Celebration.

 

My birthday is a little less than two days away, but yesterday and part of today I spent it with my birthday buddy extraordinaire/best friend, Victoria. We always have a delightful time together, but something about this one was just extra special. Truly a lovely time that I captured in photos.

Having Victoria as my birthday buddy to celebrate each passing year is such a gift. My heart overflows with love and friendship today for all that she means to me.
