Done 'Til June

We are officially done with our family birthdays until June.  Fall hits us hard with Birthdays in the middle of all the Fall Holidays, so it is always nice once they are all past.  Spencer & Kate had a good time at their parties and so . . . Mission Accomplished!!

Halloween Haunts

Here's a glimpse of our Halloween . . .









The Birthday

Well, it came and went like most other days, but there were a few things that made the day stand out.  I was invited out to lunch by my friend Jen and we enjoyed Soup, Salad, & Breadsticks (& a Birthday Treat & Song) at the Olive Garden.  Later that evening, we had our neighbors, Karen & Mackay, come over for some Birthday Pie that Rich brought home as a surprise.  But the biggest surprise was a gift from Rich~~he bought airline tickets, made condo reservations, and made arrangements for the kids so that he & I could take a TRIP TO HAWAII for our 10-Year Anniversary.  What a guy . . . and what a surprise!  Can't wait 'til December. 

I should also mention that a couple days before my Birthday I was able to celebrate with my family who were in town for the weekend.  My parents, my youngest sister Melissa, and my sister Becca's family made it a memorable birthday.  I might add that it is usually memorable whenever we get together~~My Wonderful Wacky Family!! 

Fall Fun

I just needed to add some pictures of some of the things that we have been doing this Fall.  And since they say that a picture is worth a million words, I will let the pictures do the talking . . .
