I swore...



A. old and dear friends to brighten up my birthday . thanks girls and everyone else that came. ( and to my thoughtful husband who planned the party)B. my beautiful little guy that makes me smile every time i look at him...
C. cousin sleepovers- tiring- but fun to watch the kids thoroughly enjoy every minute (plus, then we trade with their parents and take an overnighter ourselves)...Liam HAD to sleep next to Willa on the floor even though his bed was right next to her. then he ended up taking over the mat and shoving his poor cousin off. signs of the time...watch out future wife!
D. letting my husband go on a mountain-biking excursion with some buddies...talk about coming home a new man! i didn't recognize him with all the dirt- and - he was so totally enthused!
E. having Liam on silverware duty. i HATE unloading the dishwasher...just like my Mom does...and i always think Liam is too little to help but found out he does a great job! F. i don't swear by this... the midnight showing of eclipse. i think the movies and books are entertaining- but i definitely don't need to stay up till 2 or 3 am to watch it the first night. i had fun with these girls - though i don't know how i got talked into it by Ingrid!- i was so so tired waiting for it to start. don't know if i'd do it again. i guess there is always a first and last time for everything. !

Mindy, the dress is so cute. You did a fabulous job. I'm so proud of you. In the pictre of Mart, I see charly in the background chilling out in is chair. Both you and Marty are crazy adults who act like teenagers. I can't believe you went to that late movie, but what fun. Love you

When I saw Ruby's dress at church I wondered if you'd made it - go you!!! I could never....and don't dare attempt!

I think these are great things to be thankful for. I'm withyou on the whole waiting up till 2 am to watch a movie. I must be getting old. (=

Cute dress! Glad it went faster the 2nd time around. I love the pic of Marty where your babe is onlooking in the background from his bumbo...too cute. You really are a busy momma...and you manage to still look cute and well taken care of. Bless 'ur heart.
