New Release


Of course we've all read Bitter is the New Black and Bright Lights Big Ass, so we're fully aware of how exciting this is! I'm heading to the book store this weekend to pick up my copy. I can't wait to laugh myself silly!

Movie Night


Saturday I helped out my sister and her family with a little bit of cleaning and a lot of playing in their new house. That's right my sister and her family are moving into a nice big house in Stone Gate. I'm so happy for them. She already had a babysitter on hand to watch the kids while we were suppose to be working and decided to hit the movies that evening at the 9:30 showing of Made of Honor. I was exhausted driving back into town at midnight! The movie was cute and Patrick is a doll.
What movies have you seen lately?????

Friday Fun

1. Two of my favorite ingredients in a drink are ice and lemon!
2. Children often amaze me.
3. You can keep doing that forever, the dog is never going to calm down.
4. Tea, water, sugar, mix it all together and voila! You have sweet tea!
5. If I had a yard with a garden, I would love to grow flowers, veggies and herbs.
6. Not me, that's for sure, is best au naturel.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to sons baseball game and then party at our neighbors, tomorrow my plans include sleeping in and then shopping and errands and Sunday I want to celebrate my Dad's birthday and then sons baseball practice.

Have a fabulous weekend!
