The big 40!

I have officially begun my 40's! I was not looking forward to starting my 40's I must say, BUT, My friends and family made my birthday so special this year that it wasn't so bad.

My friends surprised me last week with a lunch at the Oxford Exchange in Tampa.

It was such a fun lunch. Thank you, Anne for all the time, thought, and money you put into planning this.


Monday was my actually Birthday and my hubby went above and beyond to make it special for me.
I had flowers delivered and Edible arrangements.

And then the girls all got me some of my favorite things: Candles, mani/pedi gift card and gummy bears:)

But the biggest surprise came when I opened up plane tickets to NYC!!!! I have always wanted to go to New York, now I can check this off my bucket list. It will be a few months before we can go but that's OK, I have something to look forward to.


I know I've only been 40 for 6 days now, but I have to say it's not so bad.



Happy Saturday!

Playing catch up....AGAIN

OK, I stink at keeping up this blog. I think about it but then I get busy doing something else and forget and then BAM two weeks have gone by!

So let me catch you all up on whats been happen around here.



Grandparents Day:

Every year at the girls school they celebrate Grandparents Day, this is not my girls favorite because their grandparents live so far away and usually cannot make it:( Every year McKinley begs for my parents to come, so each year I am the "stand in" grandma.

This year they had a 50's theme to it and the kids dressed up and each class preformed in chapel.

I have to share with you a few of the video's from chapel because my girl, Madison totally stole the show!!! That girl LOVES to perform.

She cracks me up!!!


And in other big news Madison lost her first tooth 2 weeks ago.

It had been loose for a couple of weeks and then she finally asked Morgan to pull it. Morgan is the resident "tooth puller" in our house:) She has pulled every one of McKinley's teeth so Madison would not let me touch it, she only wanted Morgan to do it.


Tomorrow I will update all about my Birthday!

Happy Friday
