MEL'S MUSINGS: April 2010

FEELING OLD

This past Saturday, I got to go to my cousin Jenna's lingerie shower & bacholorette party! I felt so old, since I was the only one in my 30's...........all the other girlys were in their mid 20's. Those of you that know me, know that I am a comfy capri, tshirt, flip flop wearing kinda gal..................I thought I would be bold and buy a dress ( a cute dress if I must say so myself!) and dress it up!

When I asked the other girls who don't know my true age, how old they thought I was? They replied mid to late '20's! I love it! That made my night..........If only my inside body felt like my mid '20's! (: We did have a good time despite the rain! It was a little more tame than what I am used to when I go party, but fun! We ate at the Glass Cactus and I recommend trying it! Their food was delicious! Now to wait for Saturday to celebrate the wedding! Can't wait to see Jenna looking beautiful, as usual, in her beautiful wedding dress!

The young ones with the old one

Busy Saturday!

Saturday started out with my oldest, Ashleigh, trying out for cheerleader! I was so nervous for her. Those of you that know her know how shy she is and how it takes forever to get her to talk to you, but she did it. She went by herself in front of all the other girls trying out, all the parents, and 3 judges. She cheered her heart out and did two jumps. Of course, the anticipation waiting on finding out if she made it all day was nerve racking (more for me than her of course)! But, in the end, she made CHEERLEADER! We are so proud of her!

Saturday evening Kelsey came over to babysit and we were off to celebrate with my cousin, Jenna, and her soon to be hubby, Adam, for a couples shower. After a long drive to Colleyville, we made it, finally................

My hubby and I ( love him with all my <3)

Frame I made for Jenna and Adam

By the end of the evening, Jenny, Josh, Brian and I were getting a little silly and this is with no alcohol......
The house the shower was at was very couture, like a museum..........

If I had David with me I would have been suicidal by the end of the night

with all the expensive knick knacks that were in the house and keeping him from swinging on the chandelier.................(:

Josh and Brian both had Jenny and I rolling on the way home. We were all so tired from our long day! I am blessed to have such a great brother and sister !LOVE THEM! Now on to a busy week and another busy weekend! (:
