Road Construction





I could not wait for the Henderson Road project to begin...and here it is!  I guess I didn't realize it was going to be this extensive and last till November.  WOW!  All those times I wrote in and asked when it would start and how it was needed so badly should make me appreciative and happy they are finally fixing our much-needed road.  I look forward to having new sidewalks, a new traffic light, and a pot hole free road!  

Playdates

Exploring new toys at The Ottery House
Watching the carousel at the zoo
The boys were more interested in each other than the fish
Hilarious...they (the zoo people) made Weston (13 months)
and Tyler (8 1/2 months) sit buckled in their own seats.
Surprisingly, they both did GREAT!



I am so blessed to have such incredible friends!  Recently, I've had 2 playdates with my old roomies, Becky and Jamie with their 2 little guys, Tyler and Weston!  Back in March we went to Jamie's house for lunch and playing.  Yesterday we went to the zoo.  The boys were so good!  Then we hit up "The Cowboy" for lunch, mmm!  I love time with my girls and it is awesome to see them in action as mommies!  Thanks girls and boys for a great day!

St. Patrick's Day Party 2009

it totally creeps me out)
Kim, Myself and Addie
Daren, Justin and Marty
The Flip Cup Teams
The Girls ROCK!
The Closing Party...those who made it till the end!

We had another very successful St. Patty's Day party!  It is so much fun for us to have our friends over and celebrate Daren's special day!  St. Patrick's Day has never been so much fun for me as it is now with Daren's enthusiastic attitude!  Thank you to all our dear friends who made it such a blast!  Can't wait for next year!

Relaxing!

I have thoroughly enjoyed the weekend so far!  I'm (we're) always running around with our heads cut off and today we relaxed!  We had a great lunch with Jon Marc, Abbi, and Carter then came home and have watched movies!  Don't get me wrong, it's not like I have it all together!  Tomorrow I need to get my act together and get some serious spring cleaning done, however it's been so nice to just chill for a day!  Love these kind of weekends where we don't have a million things going on and truly relax for at least a day!  I hope to be more driven tomorrow...lets hope for the best!

Thank You!

As I just finished updating February, it really reminded me of how blessed I am to have such wonderful people in my life!  Daren and I are constantly in conversations about all our awesome friends and family that make us who we are today!  We love being surrounded by such great people!  It's so fun to look through all the pictures and talk about such wonderful times that will forever be great memories to us!  Thank you everyone for being such good, genuine family and friends to us!  Love you ALL!

It's time to watch a movie, and off to bed! I will update more pictures throughout this week and try to figure out how to download pictures from my phone!  Goodnight!

Piano Bar!

Daren, Myself, Addie, Justin & Adam
Me & Addie


Gets me excited just typing about it...so much FUN!  First let me preface by saying there is absolutely nothing wrong with celebrating a birthday an entire month!  Thank you Addie for agreeing!  There's this new piano bar in town and it is fabulous!  Addie arranged an evening to test the place out and we had a BLAST!  I cannot remember the last time we went somewhere for that many hours and honestly could have stayed 2 or 3 more, completely entertained!  These people are so talented and really know how to get a crowd engaged!  I need to get my manual out to download some pictures from my phone.  Since it was still my "fake" birthday they had me get on stage with the other birthday girls and former OSU football player Bobby Carpenter got up there with me, how fun!
