It's Tearin' Up my Heart!

It WAS tearin' up my heart to wait for NKOTBSB!  

New Kids On The Block and Backstreet Boys!  SO FUN!!!

My Calvin Tennis girlfriends got together and went to dinner, and a great concert - I had SO much fun re-living Jr High music loves!

My friends from work came for dinner the other day, then we went to Karla's to see Charley, the Bachelorette and for dessert!

 Janene, Amy and Karla

They loved meeting Puff!

I'm thinking this week is going to be a delicious one.  Here's what I worked on and have teed up for the week - at least Monday and Tuesday!

Monday Dinner with the girls - Pasta Caprese

Tuesday lunch dessert - Revel Bars!  ooo lala!

Today at church, I also helped with a fantastic Spaghetti dinner - going to Brazil one noodle at a time! :)

Oh you know...just Sewing on Sunday

A new necklace from an old one!  

I've had a ripped out page from a magazine floating around for about 3 months now!  And since I had a quiet weekend, I pulled it out and gave it a go!

My Inspiration: Boden's Sea Green Beaded Petal Necklace 

Ooo lala right?

But for real - 64 dolla?  

Are you nuts?!?!?!

So I had this:

And I gave it a little love and turned it into this:

At basically free - I say uh huh!  and the girls at work said uh huh too!  

Holla - that's how you save a dolla! (or 64 + shipping)

May 14

May 14 was a busy day!  First things first it was Riverbank Run day! 

It was very fun, and I'm so glad I did it; I even had a better time than before!

Then it was off to Brad and Allison's wedding!  Also very fun!

Congratulations runners and Ritters! :)

Birthday Party

Last weekend I attended a 10 year old's birthday party - super fun! Oh to be 10 again! :)

This weekend is the River Bank Run - 25k here I come!  Dare to be There!

Meet at Marie's

Last Friday a few of my girlfriends and I met for dinner at Marie Catrib's.  Very yum.  It was great to catch up and chat, and we even got an 'I'm Prego' announcement from Kristina! How exciting!

Top it off with a stop at the Cone Shoppe! :)

Dumb Luck

Recently in my mailbox at work I received this:

Every year gfs does this big March Madness party and we all draw teams and put our names down on the brackets.  I distinctly remember drawing a team (I have no idea which one), looking only at the seed number and saying, 'Oh Great, a middle seed I might as well not sign up!'  But I did, and apparently they had the glass slippers of Cinderella this year!  Giftcard!
