New Life on Kelsey

No, Regina hasnt met any tomcats!  no worries on that one!  I started a new project!  I'm forcing tulip bulbs in glass vases.  Here's what they look like now -

I'm hoping they'll turn into beautiful tulips in about a month!  

Cross your fingers!

I Dont Know, You Tell Me

A lot of people have asked if I had a good birthday, so I'll let you decide for yourself.

I took a half day of work, ran a few errands, had a late lunch with my girlfriends, and got manicures and pedicures!

Came home to a back porch full if balloons, sweet notes, a cookie cake, a rose, and a cactus.

I received a slew of cards, gifts, had cake at Bible study, and returned home to a beautiful bouquet of flowers from my parents!!!!  Plus, this morning I realized that I got a little shout out on another blog...So sweet!

Anthro and Mary Ann's chocolates - Ooo lala!

Creme Brule Coffee!! 

Flowers from Mom and Dad!

So you tell me?! 

I say yes, DEFINITELY!

First Birthday Card

And it's from a 'close' friend - Anthropologie!!!  I really thought it was an actual note from someone, that Anthro, they know what they're talking about!

Dont mind if I do!

Bowlingpalooza!

Miss Leah is on the Bowling Team.  And I have a secret closet love for bowling, and a not so secret love for Leah, so I went to watch!  Brit and Susan(ne) were there too!  fun!

Gooooooo Northpointe!

Hot water is not a necessity

Turns out you can have a perfectly lovely girls weekend, even without turning the hot water on.  Keep it in mind folks, keep it in mind! :)

Shopping, eating, nails, movies, sleeeeeeeeping, laughing, cooking - all the good stuff!

World Peace and Obedient Children

This, my friends, is always the request of my father anytime he is asked for a gift idea.  And, well, if there was a day to shoot for the moon and land one of those, it was yesterday: his 60th Birthday!  

How about a surprise visit at the office and a calculator cake?!  Close enough!?

60 has never looked so good! love ya guy! :)

Hold Up! Freeze Out!

So the 'Place to Discover Life at its Best' didnt disappoint!  I had a great time with our students at Lake Ann over the weekend; hearts were challenged, and I hope lives changed!
