We had a crazy busy weekend (nothing new right). I got a call on Tuesday from our Pastor and his wife that they would be near our area for the week visiting their daughter and grandchildren. And since Marc takes Fridays off to hang with his lovely wife....yours truly we agreed a road trip to NC was a must. Only problem was that I forgot (for a minute) that the youth were having a Spaghetti Slurp and Karaoke night on the same day. Oh, and for some reason I forgot that I had a 8:30 AM hair appointment that morning. Talk about scatterbrained! Anyway, long story short we met them half way between the beach and North Carolina for lunch (after my hair appointment mind you) and then after a lovely time of visiting and eating we hightailed it back to VA just in time for the event at WABC!
The youth did a really great job and everyone there had a laughing good time. They even got me to get up on stage and sing! Saturday morning we hit the ground running again at a surprise birthday party for a friend of my mom's. Actually I grew up knowing Betty, and her sister Helen and I go back to the sandbox literally. We went to elementary, middle and high school together and when I lived with my grandparents we actually caught the bus together each morning.
After we left the birthday party we stopped by the church just long enough to hear all of the details of the Cake/Scripture walk the deaconess ministry was holding. From the pics they gave me looks like their was some fierce competition going for a coconut cake. Some people even ended up on the ground fighting for a chance to win!
Speaking of birthdays and cakes it you have not heard by now I will be celebrating my 47th birthday next month. As I was trying to decide what to do this year I knew I wanted the celebration to center around hanging out with the women in my life (mostly my family ) who have been there for me, and have influenced me, and basically help to mold me into the women I am today. So right now I am in the planning stages for the big bash. LOL And since I'm a theme girl I decided since they don't call me the Disneyqueen for nothin why not have a Disney Princess and the Frog birthday party (grown up style)! So 14 of the closest women in my family will be showered with food, obscene desserts, and gifts at my moms home in a few weeks. I can't wait to show you pictures. I have been stalking every party planning site I can get my hands on. You should see the parties people are having!
Ok now on to my latest obsession. And that's clothing. I have always loved fashion (actually went to school for Fashion Merchandising, and wanted to be a buyer for Macy's in New York). Instead I got married and had three kids and became the personal shopper for them. LOL So thanks to my daughter Nicki I am now a youtube junkie. I have been checking out some fashion blogs to see what the latest and greatest is in the fashion world, and started purging my closet to make room for some new clothing and shoes. Who knows you might even see a few fashion post pop up again.
So thats what is happening in my life. What is everyone else up to? LOL
