Shout!!....then throw up all night!! A bday outing with the girls!!!

Thanks folks...I'll be here all night...uh who let me up on stage...and with a musical instrument:) This was toward the end of the night heheheheeee it was so fun!! Yes, yes lap dances for my friends and family...sad to say...not the first ones lol. I like to dance when I am "tipsy" ;) My friends are great!! ...and so is my sister-in-law (the one im dancing on) good times!!

Thanks to my bff of 25 years :) They pulled me on stage, made me sit on the piano..and sang a song...about camel-toe...HILARIOUS!!!

Kelli and Kelli!!! Two friends who know who I am and what I stand for! Two friends who love me no matter how often we talk or visit! Two friends that are engraved on my heart and who love me and my family! Two friends who mean the world to me...Kelli S. my best friend since HS...we are soulmates really!! And Kelli K. ...my family away from home. My early labor coach, my I need to vent friend, someone who I could not imagine my life without!!!

My best friends, my family...the ones who love me no matter what...no matter how much time passes between phone calls and visits...the ones who have always been there...and always will! (there were a lot of my other bff's that were unable to make it...but this is for them too!! )

Kacie, Jenni, Me, Kelli S. and Kelli K. LOVE YOU!! THANK YOU!!

My sister-in-law Jenni! She is the greatest! I hate to even add the in-law in her name. She is my sister!! She is someone who I count on..and who loves my children as if they were her own!! Thank you for being such a huge part in my life...and for finding Daisy Mae Cinderella :)

Kelli Kraemer... "My life would Suck without you!!!" Your Amazing!!

25 years of friendship with Kacie Lynn...We have been through more than you can imagine...and yet we always circle back to eachother. I was so shocked to see her face when I walked in the door!! What an amazing journey we have been on together!

The Girls!!! Each a part of my life...coming in at just the right time! Soul mates, family, bonds that will last a lifetime and that I am so thankful to have! If you know the feeling of these kinds of friends you are as lucky as I am !

To be continued....

A hair dying party...another scheme in my surprise party :)

My friend Karen told me that we were having a hair dying party for this survey thing she is doing to win trips etc...and although she really was doing that...she was what I was doing that day to keep me out of my house!! :) We had to take before and after pics...these were the after. Love model poses lol!! Thank you Karen and Kelli for keeping me out of my house and making me perdy!!

A surprise in Surprise....

Surprise!!! You can tell by the look on my face that I had absolutely no idea!! I love seeing Kayla in this picture...She was so excited and her open arms are what greeted me on this amazing day!

...apart from my friends and family who surprised me from California....this puppy was the biggest most unexpected gift ever! Aaron has spent the last 4 months telling me all of the reasons getting a puppy would not happen! We just landscaped our backyard and have brand new pretty sod...that he continued to tell me how a puppy would dig it etc! He pretty much had me convinced that I didn't want a dog either...Little did I know that he had Jenni (sister) researching Golden Retrievers and finding one that would be the perfect age by the time of my party!! Well...needless to say, he did it and I was surprised...and it was the best present ever!!

Tears of joy...

Welcome to our family...

A video of Kayla bringing me my bday surprise...I was already emotional from the party..this put me over the top!!!

Enjoying the Ride...

Happy 1st Birthday to Kendrik, and Happy 1st Bike ride to Kayla Mae. Since this is our first Blog experience I thought it would be fitting to have a picture of my babies at an important milestone in their life also!

Thanks to Santa Kayla has a new princess bike, and a matching helmet and elbow pads to go with it :) She is doing great on her new ride, and looks so big riding it!!

Little Bubby is taking steps (the first three were on his first bday), talking, and making animal sounds. He is such a great little guy. Smiles all the time and loves puppies!!

We are so blessed!!
