Yesterday we spent the day at the lake celebrating my youngest nieces birthday with family and friends. Whew, nothing wears you out like being outside and on the water all day. I feel like I need shoulder braces to get through the day today.

Some of the highlights…

sarah

This is my crazy red-headed niece Sarah. She has the funniest sense of humor and I can’t wait to see where she goes in life. As her and Tate were coming in off the lake yesterday where she had been working to teach Tate how to knee-board she popped off a few remarks that had me rolling. She seems to be able to do that a lot lately!

kristin

This is Kristin, the birthday girl. Such a thoughtful and considerate young lady. She always has others on her mind. She made all of her own cupcakes for her party from start to finish, even the homemade icing I wish I had gotten a picture to show you but ummm, I was too busy socializing…and eating :0)  They were brightly colored and swirled. And tasted FABULOUS! Happy 12th Birthday Kristin!!

stephanie

Of course most of you know this little lady. She is my oldest niece Stephanie. A little firecracker for sure…and always camera ready. She is the Diva of the bunch. I did fuss at her yesterday though, she needs to redo her nail polish. If you see her around check out her toes, then tell her you agree with me.

best punch ever

This is the best punch ever…and ohhh so easy!! Simply mix crystal light and ginger ale. Seriously. That is all you have to do and it tastes GREAT!! No other ingredients needed.

I didn’t take very many pictures but we had a fabulous time. It was a great party, good food, and throw in lots of family and friends and you get a Luau of a good time!

I hope you had the opportunity to do something fun this weekend!!

 

Well, I made it. I hit the big 40 today. It has been a relatively quiet day, thank goodness. My Mom and I went to breakfast this morning. We decided on Shoney’s Breakfast Bar because she isn’t going to be able to eat again for awhile. She is having surgery on Friday so we decided it best to stuff her as full as we could get her. I found out that my sister got me these:

chucks

In ORANGE!!!

So excited. They were back-ordered but I should be receiving them soon and I can’t wait to wear them and have Happy Feet.

I didn’t ask for anything this year. I got my notebook computer last year and my camera earlier this year so there wasn’t really anything that I needed, but I was thrilled when I found out about the shoes. Then my kids got me a really cute outfit that is going to go perfectly with my chucks.

It has been a great day all around. Now if I can just survive the rest of the week.

I hope you all have a great day filled to the brim with love and happiness!

Well, not so much love that you will be taking prenatal vitamins. But you know what I mean.

We are here celebrating not only Valentine’s Day but Erin’s Birthday!

So our day will be filled with TONS of celebrating, food, family and friends.

I hope yours is as well.

Oh, and it is snowing again.

 

Plans change quickly around here. The snow came and went and with it…it took most of our plans right out the door.

We had to cancel our plans to go to the circus, then the karate banquet was canceled.

However, our plans to celebrate Erin’s birthday are still in tact.

I missed Erin’s birthday due to being out of town so we decided to celebrate this weekend instead. I was afraid hat we might have to postpone again due to the snow but as the day went on the snow quickly melted away. It was pretty while it lasted though.

The weather forecast says that we are in for another snow storm on Monday. If it keeps this up we are not going to be needing an eye wrinkle treatment due to the cold tightening our skin in un-natural ways. This has been the craziest of winters for us. Very cold temperatures wreaking havoc on our heating bill in an otherwise mild climate. And the uncanny dampness that we have been having has destroyed our driveway along with almost everyone else’s I know.

What is your weather like? I would be more than happy to send you ours.
