family


So, my mom turned 59 yesterday.  We took her to Edgar's for lunch and then had a party with the family that evening.  It was lots of fun.  And...nothing tastes better than a white on white birthday cake!  
This a picture of my dad I took a few days ago.  His guitar is named "Hank"  He bought it as a teenager.  It's even been to Europe and back.  He LOVES it!  He plays it non-stop and sings non-stop.  I grew up with this instrument all my life, loved playing on it as a child.  But, I think I am the only one in my family who does not play guitar.  It's okay, because I play the CD player very well!  ;)  Gonna call it a night and watch a movie with my hubby.

flat tires


Well, last night I did something I never thought I would get to do.  Change a flat tire.  LOL!  Natalie had a flat so I decided to help her out and change it.   Believe me, she didn't want me to, but I did it just to see if I could.  Except for a small dent under the car where I put the car jack, all went well.....Shhhh!  So, my little sister and her family are here now and have sold their home South Carolina.  This is a picture of my little niece and my mom.  We are all together in Alabama once again and its so nice to have my family in one place!  :)

food and music

So, I added this ipod thingy.  I like quite a variety of music and you are welcome to browse because it seems my least favorite songs tend to pop up first.  Ugh.  Sorry.  
This evening feels like it is going to be very uneventful and I am anxious about it.  LOL!  I do not like to sit around.  I already vegged this morning.  Treated myself to a Moe's Homewrecker today.  I was sitting there filling out a customer response card and it asked me what my favorite restaurant is and you know what....I couldn't think of one.  I don't think I enjoy restaurant food too much these days.  I could tell you some restaurants I despise, though.  ;)  Guess my mood is the main factor.  Anyway, this week is going to get more exciting.  I look forward to the upcoming events.  Natalie will also be 19 on friday.  I am old.  :)  Happy, but old.  Peace out!

sun


It was beautiful today.  Natalie and I went to the pool, where many friends met up with us to swim.  We stayed in the sun for 4 hours.  So, I am a lobster!
Natalie is making dinner tonight.  Curry chicken and corn on the cob.  Tammy...wonder why we are having corn on the cob?????  LOL!  
So, yeah.  That's it.  Another great day. :)  Tonight.....Helena fitness with the family.  ;)

waiting on this little girl to get here


Well, I have been helping my parents move into their new home.  They moved here from South Carolina.  It's great to finally have them here.  Tonight we had so much fun helping them organize their closet!  They have so many clothes, and most of them are outdated and funny!  Dad is so proud of his handmade, customized, Indonesian, satin shirt!  WOW!  What a sight and how I wished it would just go somewhere and hide!  He was bragging on how old some of his pants were.....dating back to the 70's, but I know they are from the early 90's.  But he was still proud to still have them.  As he put on different hats in his closet, he would act out different characters.  He is convinced they are still cool to have and wear.  I'm not saying a word!  Lol!  Mom just worried where she would hang her 2 dresses and was bothered that all her dress pants would touch the floor.  It really was fun being in their closet.  :)
Now we are waiting the arrival of my little sister and her family to move here as well.  9 more days.  What a blast we will have with all of my family here in B'ham!  
This pic is of my little niece, Abby.  Can't wait to see her.
