I am a neglegent blogger.

You know the drill -I've been busy, yada, yada, yada.....
It's been the usual lately - eat, sleep, work, Emma - with one exception. Ya, there's always one exception.
This past week my super fantastic hottie Mama turned 50. That's right, 50. I am 29 in 2 weeks - you do the math. So, to show her how much we adore her, we (meaning me and my insane-o clan) threw her a very lovely surprise party. Not only did we pull off the surprise bit, but I think most of the attendees had fun, which is really the best you can hope for when my family gets together.

Now look at some pictures:
The righteous decorations.

The crowd.

Emma, hitting some golf balls at the driving range (the party was held at a golf course).

My Mom and (some of) my sisters and me.

Cake!

Me and my Grandma Joyce.

My Mom, her brothers, and their parents.

Shauna is pretty funny.

Take a good look at this picture - does this not completely describe my sisters and I? I think it does.

I've got some fun and funky things coming up in the next couple of weeks, including a whole 10 day stretch off work, when I will be having some time with Emma, as well as what is shaping up to be the best birthday weekend ever. Maybe I'll blog about it ;)

Do I really give off the persona that I will beat you and steal your children? Cause that is so the look in that picture!!!

PS. Miss you!

I think you look strong. And serious. And I also think you are both of those things.

Looks like good times were had by all. Your mom is so young. The picture of the 3 sisters is the best!
