Thoughts from the hot seat!

Weekend Fun in the Summer Sun!

Well, it was for sure an eventful weekend and a fabulous birthday! :) Friday was full of wonderful emails and e-cards from friends I've made online...which was so nice...thank you all! Friday night I had the opportunity to see Dave Matthews in concert for the first time and that was just awesome. I had a great time (big thanks to my cousin) and really enjoyed the show! But the fun didn't end there...on Saturday my hubby and kids gave me my "real" birthday present...a Nintendo Wii! I was so excited because I really want the Wii fit program. So, it's on order and I can't wait to give it a try!

On Saturday we headed to Ohio to see our newborn niece, Allison, for the first time. She is absolutely beautiful with her head full of dark spiky hair and I have to admit, I was pretty ungenerous and didn't share her much with my hubby! lol Saturday night we went to dinner with Allison and her mommy and daddy...and after that...headed back to their house, set up the Wii and bowled, golfed and laughed alot. It was tons of fun! But guess what? You got it, the fun didn't stop there...lol.

Sunday my close friend Teri and I went to see Mama Mia! which was probably one of the best "chick flicks" I've seen in a very long time. We laughed, cried...the whole thing. It was really wonderful and one of the few movies I've seen lately that I would spend the money to go see again. Afterward we went back to her house and met up with our men and our kids and had a wonderful grilled out supper and swam in the neighbors pool. It was a very special birthday and fantastic to spend the weekend with so many people that are special to me!

Now while I was doing all this celebrating...I didn't forget my promise to let one of my newsletter customers in on the fun too! I pulled a random name from my newsletter subscribers on Friday and Judy B won this beautiful contemporary birthday surprise!

Be sure to look for new listings this week on Etsy...and cross your fingers with me that I'll have enough time to finish up the few things I have left to do on my website so I can finally launch it! If I do, I'll be sure to post the link here!
