Birthdays

















Today I'm grateful for...

Being available to pick up and take home 3 of Taylor's friends for her birthday bowling celebration. Her party was at arrow head in the jungle room.

That Karen, Lisa, and JoKaylin were able to come celebrate with us.

Nice weather so we were able to ride with the top down on the convertible.

Mom having a second birthday celebration for Taylor so family could come.

All the great gifts Taylor got and seeing her smiling face.

Watching the babies play with balloons, seeing the emotions they experienced when some of the balloons got let go.

The birthday party for one of my friends on Saturday night after all of Taylor's activities, where I danced so much I could barely move Sunday morning.

Dancing with 3 different guys having fun and not even asking for their names :) cuz all I wanted was to dance when they asked me.

Remembering that I am able to have a great time without drinking. (I was the dd)

Making the best damn beef vegetable soup with dumplings today. --Taylor ate two bowls!

All day with no interruptions, I did laundry, cleaned, cooked, and slept! Sounds mundane I know, but it's rare I get a full day at home anymore.

Anticipation of my spa visit tomorrow and Heather working on my huge mask of hyper pigmentation that has developed over the last year. I don't know that it's doing anything for the hyper pigmentation, but it feels great and is soooo relaxing.

Knowing that Billy's surgery will go great tomorrow with no complications and that he will heal well.

Knowing that Tracie and Tim will work things out for the upcoming weekend.

Hearing Jessica's stories about the girl scout camp out this past weekend. Knowing that she had a great time and it wasn't horrible like she thought it was going to be.

Never ending cheer and tumbling classes for Taylor.

Nancy's information making more and more sense to me after thinking about my relatives and their names.

Mom having a great gathering place for all of us to celebrate.

Setting my alarm, getting up early and seeing the sun rise this morning, it was beautiful.

Family.
