Semi-naked-wrapping-paper-roll-horse-races in the living room (notice the new banquette in the background...EEEEEK! post on that later)
65+degree weather equals lots of swing time in the backyard,
and teeter-toter time at the park.
A 70 degree day for my birthday party! Great for sitting in the sun...and getting a nice little burn before my party pics!
A great night celebrating the big 3-1 with all my favorite girlies,
And my favorite boys, especially this one.
You know it's a great party when...
1. the weather is nice enough to hang on the deck
2. the keg is kicked by 10pm.
3. after the keg is kicked you get really creative with the tequila and Malibu rum drinks (thanks alot Maria).
4. people start dancing on the counter tops
5. your kids sleep through the entire thing!
6. you start to wonder what happened to your husband around 11:00...and find him here...
7. in the morning, you wake up to grab your kid out of his crib and trip over 4 bodies on your way.
8. you cannot find your counter top due to all the debris
9. for some reason, your brain doesn't feel like it's been kicked in by a 700 pound elephant,
10. so you crack the champagne and continue on as usual...and do it all over again that night too. Happy Birthday to ME.
And, the day after that...a little golf at "our club" with the parents. Beautiful. Imagine how happy my husband was that he was getting to play golf on MY BIRTHDAY!
I came from pretty good genes.
Seriously pondering what club to use. And the only pic I got of Galen and I!
And, there you have it, our past days in a nutshell. I'll try not to be away so long next time...but I'm not making any promises!!
