"The Colors of Fall"

I love all the colors of fall, oranges, reds, yellows and that final touch of green. I love the crisp mornings and the winds that stir up the fallen leaves. I love the smell of rain and the coolness of the air before it snows. I LOVE fall!

"Wishful Wednesday"

This is my beautiful daughter, McKenzie, and on this "Wishful Wednesday" I thought I would tell her what I wish for her. My sweet girl, I hope that you always know how much I love you and want the very best for you. I wish for you to be happy and always feel safe. I wish that you will always be surrounded by people who love you and care about what you think and let you be yourself. I wish that you will always have good teachers in school and in church to help guide you throughout your life. I wish that you will always try to listen and try your very best to do the right things and treat others like you like to be treated. I wish for you all the opportunities to take lessons in the things that you enjoy like cheer, tumbling, dance and piano. Most of all, I wish for you to be really happy with your life and all that it can become as you get older. Love you- Mommy =0)

The Big Giveaway

So I was blog stalking "again" and I found this darling site called http://girlydos.blogspot.com and she has the most amazing hairdo's for little girls. They are so cute and they look pretty easy to do, I can only hope that Mckenzie will hold still long enough to try them. Anyway, she is doing a giveaway for 3 prizes this week and if you leave a comment on her blog you are entered into the drawing. I left comment number 612, do you think I still have a chance to win? I sure hope so because the gifts are great! Tell her you saw her on my blog, leave a comment and link to your site and you will be entered too!! Good luck everyone!!

"Thoughtful Thursday"

I just wanted to share one of my most favorite quotes on this Thoughtful Thursday. I have had this posted on my computer at work for years. I hope that you will like it as much as I do.

We come to love not by finding a perfect person but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly. -Sam Keen, To Love and Be Loved

Friday Night Update

Well Friday night was fun after all! Got to meet Perry, a friend of Janet's, who has the greatest smile for a guy you have ever seen! Amazing=) The band was great and the bar... well... it was a biker bar for sure with lots of black leather, Harley tee-shirts and oh yea the bikes. Wow! It was still a cool place and I'm sure that we will be going back again. I must be getting old though because the music was to loud to talk to each other and we are tons of fun with lots to say. Next time we should pick a table in the back and not front and center. It was tons of fun and I have a great bunch of friends to hang with. Love you all tons!

Freaked out Friday

So it's Friday and the week is over- finally! YA! But this Friday is going to be different. My friend Janet is taking Margaret and me to a biker bar to watch a band and guess what? I don't have a thing to wear!!!! Do you go with the everyday stuff or really get into it? I haven't been out in a while so I really don't have a clue. It totally freaks me out but then I think who really cares? Well - I do! I don't want to be a geek or look stupid and I will already be super self conscious but when you are a home body like me it gets me worked up and anxious. Janet and Margaret are both darling and the life of any party so hopefully all will focus on them and not me.

Our Friday nights mostly consist of goodies (rockstars, diet coke, trolli eggs and wavy chips and ranch dip) and sometimes we actually get around to creating something with all the paper we pack around! Sometimes the spark of creativity doesn't happen and we just laugh or only one of us will create something (anything) spectacular.

So tonight will just have to be what it is, good times with friends and my cute brother =)! So I will go shopping after work, I will let my hair down, I will walk in like I own the joint, and I will have a GR8T time!

Get back to you on the gory details later! lol lol lol =0)
