Oh my!  I did indeed drop my phone in the swimming pool Saturday while filming the children doing stunts.  I left it for 4 days and nights and it is still dead. Booooooooo!  

Here's to learning a hard hard lesson.

birthday birthday and more birthday


Gary took me to Austin for a little getaway for my birthday.



We started the trip with appetizers and drinks.  I love salsa so I was so happy!


I had a marg-tini or something like that.  I've never met a margarita I didn't like, so I was double happy!


Our buddies celebrated with us and we splurged on a fun hotel in Austin.




While innocently hanging out at the pool, this girl flew in from California to help me celebrate 40.  Oh what a wonderful surprise.  We haven't seen each other in 11 years, but it was like we never were apart!


40 selfie was in order, and look at one of my birthday gifts from Gary and the kids, a gold Texas necklace.  I love it so much!


Our group walked around the 6th street area and met up with some other buddies who live nearby.



It was the most fun and I felt spoiled!


6th street was crazy and I was loving the people watching.


And then  I danced on the bar.


I love that we got to take a selfie.  All of these wonderful folks just let me do it and didn't even try to argue. lol!  I love them all for making me feel so special and for putting up with my month long celebration!





We made our way back to Waco so Audra & Scott could tour the town and see how much Waco has grown.  We had a party at our house and even had the soccer game on a projector.  Oh my!  It was so fun.  I had a wonderful weekend.



I am one blessed lady and I'm so thankful for all the fun memories made!

So far 40 is amazing!!!!

My parents gave me this cool little patio storage thingy for my birthday!


It pretty much matches all our patio furniture, and it's just the right size for crazy kiddos.


and dogs too!

hahahahahahahahaha!



Look, Layla and Daisy have the same facial expression. :-)

40!


I had a great day bringing in my 40th year!




It has been raining like crazy here in Texas and there was a brief storm before dinner, but otherwise the day was sunny.  I'm so thankful for some sunshine!


Gary felt like we needed to celebrate my birthday and the fact that I GOT A JOB!  It is all lined up for me to start work in August!  I'm thrilled and very thankful for the opportunity!



I'm blessed and I'm so happy to have had a wonderful day surrounded by awesome people.  I enjoyed lunch with my parents and dinner with my little tribe!  40 feels great so far!

last day of school




These two munchkins had their last day of school here in Texas!  

Hayden was promoted to 3rd grade and Layla is moving up to 6th grade.  I'm so happy for them and they are thrilled to know they will not be moving again.  They are in their school district they will stay in for the rest of their school days.  YAY!  


Let the summer begin! Whoooop!
