Have a great weekend everyone!!
I probably won't be on here tomorrow with the birthday excitement and all!
Sunday's forecast is sunny and 62 degrees!!Boy I hope that is right!!! That will be a great day for soccer!!
Sweet Disney Dreams all!!
Not long now!!
I am blessed.
I"m back-
had to go pick up take and bake pizzas from Costco. Yum.
Shelly- have a great weekend! we have soccer tomorrow, and i'm hoping it doesn't rain too too much!
Have a fun Birthday!
NC- what kind of art do your parents deal in? I was just online looking up art galleries- I kid you not!
As far a Mark goes- he is a jewel, I tell you! Every night, he scrubs the dishes while i wipe the counters and tables, then I dry any pots, etc while he loads the dishwasher. Sometimes he will do the whole kitchen by himself-
he even does his own laundry!!!!
RF- crack that whip on those bridesmaids! NC could give them all pointers...
Mari-I love cupcakes too.
I was just thinking that this little town needs something ingenious like a place that you can rent out- one room decorated for girls, another decorated for boys- and they could be rented out for birthdays- and part of the rental would be cupcakes of all makes and kinds. And then some different fun things to do, craft wise.
Hum...
I'm liking that idea...
I wonder if Mark would buy me a place????? He could scrub my mixer after I made cupcakes!!!!
Haha

..... If they ever make a place likte that for parties let the owners know there is one of those needed in NJ...We get take and bake pizza's from Sam's which I bet are like the ones at Costco. Love those!!!
Here is a link to my parents' gallery:

Hot Springs is recognized as (No. 4) one of the "100 Best Art Towns in America." My parents love it there.
I bet Mark would finance that venture! Then he could retire and go to work for you. That's what my dad did with my mom and her art gallery.

Have a great party Shelly. 
Happy Bday to your son.
Sweet tea- Who Knew???????
Did you post pics yet of your calendar you made? did I miss it somehow? I've been like a Zombie the last few days-
Jo
Thanks Shelly!
Hey- do you have that nifty ( good heavens, who am I , Marsha Brady????? I might as well of said "groovy"...) anyway, do you have that neat cupcake stand from Wilton? I bought one for Mary Cat's B-day and it is so cute! I'll see if I can post a pic of it...

We've been to Fun Fore All once. It was fun. Nothing great, Kind of like Chuck E Cheese, but a few outdoor rides also.
Never been to Safari Sams yet. Looks fun, but a little expensive.
Last year we had DS's party here. Remember the race car cake?? We had it outside, but somehow the kids dragged mud all through the house. I can remember being on my hands and knees scrubbing my new carpet after they left and saying that I was never doing that again!!
So we are going very small this year. One friend!! Hey - I figure we will probably only spend about $40-$50 tomorrow and with the money I save he can have extra spending money for WDW!!
I just got the I.C. cake recipe from a box! Just prepare your cake as normal. Soften some i.c. and spread it on top (instead of frosting) and then freeze the whole thing for at least 3 hours and right before you serve it top it with sliced bananas, hot fudge, strawberries, & pineapple.
I don't have the luxury of being a sniffer yet....
But I envy you sniffer out there
Did you give Mark sweet tea? I just wonder what you give your husband to get him to clean the kitchen.
Happy Birthday to your DS!!!
Where are your brides maids? What are they doing to help you. That's what bridesmaids are for! I did everything for my friends shower. I just came off of matron of honor duty on Saturday. You need to whip those women into shape!!!!
(FYI - my friend and I talked about when we both got married nearly 20 years ago our brides maids did nothing for us. Being a 40 year old bride and bridemaid makes a huge difference!Oh, and when we were bridesmaids we did little to help our friends. We were loser bridesmaids back in the day.)
The security guys spent the morning at my house. It should be locked up like Fort Knox.
My parents had flooding in their art gallery in Hot Springs. That storm was crazy!
Have a great weekend everyone!!
