Memorial Day Fun.

So Monday was Memorial Day. We had great weather. Slightly overcast but warm, but not too hot.  Just a bit of sun and breeze. Every year our church has it’s annual picnic at a nearby Nat’l Park, complete with lake, boats, tables, etc.  Always lots of fun. One of the teen girls came over to talk to me…she was trying to figure out a...

Girl’s Night Last Night!

Well, last night was my turn for Girl’s Night. Our theme was “I’m Seeing Red!” It was fun…I made tomato soup, sandwiches, tuna-noodle salad and red punch. Of course all this was served on red plates, red bowles, and red cups.  We also had red twizzlers and red-wrapped chocolate. Later for dessert, we had heart-shaped red velvet mini-cakes. I cut the tops off and...

Facebook

Being the slacker that I am, I am finally looking people up on Facebook. I’ve been on there a while, but never have done much. It’s been fun…I’ve recently gotten in touch with a girl I was really good friends with in 9th grade. (So I guess she’s not really a girl anymore…well, technically, but now a lot older.  Not that she’s OLD, just...

January First!

The first day of another new year. Love it 🙂 Last night we had friends over. They’re about our ages with 5 cute little kids (and she’s pg with the 6th) ages 8 to 2. It was not the quietest night we’ve had, but it was tons of fun. We had all the usual party foods (chips and dip, crackers and cheese, fruit and...

Check This Out!

Look what popped up by surprise! This was given to me by The Un-Mom today! How cool is that?! I found her awhile back and am a stalker now 😀 So following blogosphere etiquette, I’d like to pass this on to a few of my faves, Mummy Diaries, It Is Nap Time, and Blue Monkey Butt!

Like Lemonade in the Summer!

Last Friday night was another Girl’s Night. I love those. I come home so renewed, feeling so good. This time it was at a friend’s house (we rotate). We brought white elephant gifts to exchange; I ended up with a kitchen angel another friend makes. One of the women brought a bunch of baking stuff she didn’t want anymore, so I got muffin/cake molds...

I Started a Workout Group!

A couple weeks ago I invited a friend to come work out with me…I need motivation. And if I know someone is coming over, it’s motivation to push myself and give her a good workout. I get a sick kick out of making someone sore. 😀  Really, that’s when I know I did a good job and did it right…not trying to be mean...

Book Club!

My sil suggested awhile back starting a book club. Shortly after that, a friend of mine started one.  Nice timing. She suggested a book called “The Memory Keeper’s Daughter.” My friend said she couldn’t put it down, it was so good. And I remembered it was going to be turned into a movie. I read all the summaries on/in the book cover and discussed...

My Girl’s Night Party

I was starting to panic yesterday morning when I had only heard from 2 people out of 5. One was coming, one wasn’t. But then I began to get phone calls so I had hope again! Three of my girlies showed up, then one called (who said she was coming) and said she wouldn’t be able to make it. So it was the 4...
