S.U.R.P.R.I.S.E

So I hit the big 3 0 on Friday, November 21st. Woo hoo!! It was actually a milestone that I was trying desperately to avoid, to no avail. My husband, best friend, and countless others came together to throw me a surprise party. W O W. A surprise party for little old me. I have to say that I can't remember the last time I felt that special. Knowing that people put time and effort into doing something just for me is the most wonderful feeling.


Um yeah, so this is my hubby the party pooper!!!!!
Purdy girls, Meme and Kelsie.
Our party animal friends, Ben and Nicole!

Election '08

Go Obama!!! I am excited to see what positive changes will come to pass for this country. I am so proud to be an American.

October Festivities

Well here they are, the last of the pictures of all our Halloween festivities. We had some parties, carved some pumpkins, cooked some seeds, and, of course, did a little trick or treatin!! All the usual things you do for this fun holiday. Halloween is fast becoming a not-so-hated holiday of mine. I absolutely love to see how excited the kids get over every aspect of this holiday. My goal for next year is to really go all out in the decorating department. I do have to say though that my all-time favorite holiday always has been and still remains Thanksgiving. I can't wait. Bring on the turkey!!!!!!!
