Happy Birthday Mom

First and most importantly......today is my Mom's 60th birthday.  Shhhh I was not suppose to mention the age! I LOVE birthday's.  I always have and not sure why.....maybe the selfish, spoiled part of me loves the attention and gifts and love and the day soley on the birthday person :)  Others think birthday's are just another day....(cough cough cough Ryan) but I would like to give all the attention to my mom today!!! Ok maybe not ALLLL I have other things to talk about too! hahahhah JK JK JK  I have mentioned it before and I will mention it over and over again......my mom means the world to me.  We have fought like cats & dogs, laughed like little kids, cried like babies....all side by side.  We have done it ALL & yet my mom still sticks by my side 110 % of the time.  Just last night I called crying on the phone and she listened to EVERY word I said without judgement, calmed me down & was the voice of reason....SERIOUSLY how does she do it?  Blows my mind.  I SO BADLY wanted to be home with her today, but work has taken O-V-E-R my life there was just no way to be away.  :( So I called her, text her, emailed her, sent her flowers......I think you get the point.... I wish I was with her today.  ha Thank you Mom for being the VERY BEST MOM on this planet.  I hope one day I can be 1/2 the person you are today.  You truely are a gift from God.  LOVE YOU! 



Junior Year of college....2006 or so! ha


Ok.......wedding world!  Ummm yea - lets talk about that.  Ryan saw our venue where we are having the reception for the first time last Saturday.  My mom was able to meet us there and lets just say.  3 DIFFERENT opinions about EVERYTHING.  My brain was in a spiral freak out mode......ekkkkkkk.  I KNOW everything will work out and the day will be fabulous, but o my!  SO.MUCH.TO.DO!  We also met with a cater on Saturday morning at 8AM....yes 8AM to talk food, dishes, silverwear.....fun fun fun. 
On top of wedding planning, working my butt off, & trying to survive while Ryan travels; my work computer has a HUGE virus on it :(  Not good!!!  Today I had to mail my computer back to my IT guys.  Seriously do not have time for this.  My laptop it is.  Grrrrr

Dawn & Calc called me this week & I had GREAT conversations with them :)  I miss those girls SO MUCH!!!!!!! 

Melina & Ashley got to read my drama/issues/venting in my life via email this week.  THANK YOU FOR LISTENING (aka reading) LOVE YOU GIRLS!!!!!!!!

GO CARDS!!!!!!

So READY for this work week to be O-V-E-R.......going now to watch TV & maybe enjoy a glass of wine :)

Something that touched my heart today.........."MONEY DOES NOT EQUAL POWER"   I think my grandma & grandpa in heaven placed that car with this bumper sticker RIGHT in front of me today.  Call me cheesy but whatever :) 

Love,
