Today my Dad and Jess came over to celebrate my birthday! They brought me a chocolate cake and James had a taste of his first chocolate cake, he made so many faces we all laughed. We also took a picture for St. Patty's Day as a family. Joe hated it. hehe. My Dad was laughing at Joe.
Yeah!......Lance! His first day of freedom. Quite a lot going on for that kid. Glad he can come here and just have fun.
Ok! This looks drastic...but seriously, I worked all day! Went to the Moose at 5:30 (only because it is pizza day) and am home by 8:00...with dinner!
We joined Costco today...we were torn between Costco or Sams (we've been members of Sams forever)...But Costco won!
Ashley at her Birthday Bowling Party. As you can see, the girls did not bowl well but they had fun.
Me and my friends celebrated my 25th birthday at the Geneva pub crawl! It was a long day but lots of fun!
With Dixie at "Dixie's Tupperware Party". (My that's a lot of corrective lenses.)
More of my St. Pat's decorations at work. I tried to make a tartan plaid on the ceiling of the lunchroom.
On Fridays at school (my job) the announcements are done on tv. The kids do a cute 5-10 minute show. Today I was a little late and they had just started broadcasting when I arrived so I waited and watched them. These two girls are in Cole's class and first they explained a little about Irish dancing and then they did a short jig.
Well today was friday the 13 and I colored my hair at the salon and took James. He did so well but I hate the hair I need to get it re-dyed.
Is it Friday? Then we must be back at Vallemar in Pacifica... Tonight I had the fried seafood combo instead of my usual "Panko breaded halibut in garlic sauce". Very good, but nothing beats the garlic sauce... And the friendly service!
A wife of one of the guys that Joe bowls with made us this blanket! We feel so blessed with everyone's generosity!
WOW! What a little paint will do! Oops, forgot to take a before picture. Tonight install new lights...
Bubble wrap!!
Weird red shirt coincidence today... Aidan is in Annie & Bryce's class at school. Zachary is his big brother who goes to a private school. They are living with their dad at his parent's house, up the street. They will frequently tell us that their parents are having a very bad divorce right now. They are very 'spirited' children. Jim has a lot more patience with them than Shelby or I have. He says he tries to put up with them as long as possible, when they're here, because he wants to give their grandparents a break for a bit. They are sweet, smart boys, but they are whirlwinds of energy!
My mom has been giving me a present a day until the baby comes! This is todays present!
Follow up eye exam, tonight, to see how she's doing with the contacts. Had a tear in one. They replaced it for her & we ordered a 3 month supply.
Awww...the bowling people (men and women's leagues) gave a shower for Joe and Miranda! So very nice! Now we need a baby!!!!
Banging on it with a hammer didn't work.
We are having very much trouble getting use to the time change. At least they moved from their beds to here. It's hard to believe that they need to be in school in less than fifteen minutes. And they made it, barely.
Oops! This picture is from last night when I was stalking Marla,,,.
Blizzard (our sick cat) wishing that someone besides her would notice that the bowl is empty.
Almost back to where I was in the previous photo, before I realized that I had messed up in round 5... But now you can see the pattern, so I think I've got it!
Have you bought your Illinois lottery St. Patrick's day raffle ticket yet? They are almost gone...better get one tomorrow.
Every day I write a "happy moment of the day"...today mine is beginning FMLA! : )
