Grant’s Birthday 2/15/12

Well Grant’s birthday is the day after Valentines day so I always have a busy week!! This year I planned everything for his party! I was so proud of myself. I got everyone together to go eat at Leonardo’s at 6:30. Then we were going to come back to my house since it was so close and have cake and ice cream followed by presents. It was a nice evening and the food was yummy!! I hope he enjoyed it!

HAPPY 28^th BIRTHDAY GRANT!!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!

Valentines Day 2/14/12

This Valentines Day was very low key but very special! Grant and I decide to stay in and cook since we knew it would be crowded anywhere with out reservations. He came over after I got off work and we were going to do gifts first and then start cooking!! I had his all set up nice and neat and he loved it!! He had all mine in a box with little special notes on it! (Hint The Vow) We cooked steaks, potato fries, and I had asparagus and he had green beans. After dinner we put in a movie and relaxed on the couch! It was a nice romantic evening!!

HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!

Patrick and Courtney English!!

Mr. and Mrs. English

Saturday night I went to my friend Courtney’s wedding reception. Her and Patrick were married on Jan. 21^st at a private ceremony just for family. I was so thankful to be invited to her wedding reception. It was a fun night. It was at a country club off of Grants Mill Road. I am not sure the name of it. We enjoyed wonderful yummy food and cake. They had a live band, which was Courtney’s uncles band. They were fun and entertaining. I enjoyed catching up with everyone and relaxing. Courtney looked beautiful in her white dress. She and Patrick look so in love and I am so happy they found each other. I wish them nothing but happiness.

Congratulation Patrick and Courtney English

Brantley Turns 2!!!

One of my best friends little girls turned 2 on January 28th. She had her birthday party on Saturday. She had it at a place called Party on the Move in Bessemer. It was perfect for her age. It had blow up things for the kids to play on and then a side area with other toys. All the kids seemed to enjoy themselves. After about an hour of playing the kids all gathered around while Brantley opened her gifts. I must say that Brantley is a pro when it comes to unwrapping gifts. She did a great job for a 2 year old. After the kids played for a little bit more they gathered in a party room where we sang HAPPY BIRTHDAY and enjoyed pizza and ice cream before all the kids packed up to go NAP!! I am so thankful to be included in my friends children's lives. Even though I do not have any of my own I love to watch their little ones grow and celebrate events in their lives.

Thanks Allison for inviting me meant a lot!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BRANTLEY RAE!!
