My little girl turned 9 on Friday Feb 13th ( I know I am a bad blogger) we celebrated on Thursday night with the Wales family. Isabella was so into her birthday this year, which I find so sweet and sort of wierd since this is the 1st year she didn't have a party. So I guess all the fuss and money doesn't really matter anyway. She was so excited with her "boompod" chair her brother gave her, and a new DS game from the Wales' family, clothes and new cute sneakers from Kellee and Mrs. Morgan. We gave her our (lame) IOU gift...which will be very fun when it happens. She is going to Los Angeles for an overnight and to the American Girl Doll store for tea and shopping. She is very excited and once CYT is over then we will set the date - she did love that I put "TBD" on the card...she keeps saying that every chance she gets.
Cami and I kept telling her all about "9 years ago right now we were..." , she loves the story of her birth.
Valentine's "do over" - so Mike and I didn't have the best Valentine's day this year. We never really make a big fuss out of it, a card, a kiss and maybe dinner (typically at home), but this year we were at each other's throats about EVERYTHING...I mean any little chance we both had to get a dig in, we did it. I finally sent him off with Soren to go riding and met up with him later...we both needed a break from one another. The good news is we have at least 20 more Valentine's together, so no worries that 2009 went on the books as not our best. The 15th was a much better day for us and included a family ride...Yes my friends I got on my motorcycle and went on a family ride, it helped that I had some champagne first, but I did go on another one yesterday and did just as good. The kids were so encouraging, they kept saying "wow mom you are a rider now".
Rain - Okay I'm over it, building an Ark as we speak.... Mike doesn't work in the rain and ha, ha God, I get it.... you led me to a man that doesn't work when it rains, and I was raised by a man that didn't work when it rained.... ugh!! God does have sense of humor doesn't He? The financial part of it is stressful but also Mike and I don't do well when we are couped up together for so much time. We are the kind of couple that likes the break so we appreicate when we do get time together - he should have been a fireman.... Don't get me wrong, I love that man with my whole heart...however once he gets bored, it is game over!! So I am praying for some sunshine...and some work for Mike.
Our digital camera is in "green mode" not sure what that means... so I don't have any pictures, but I will get some soon....
Have a great Tuesday!
