Hard to believe..............

I met this guy at Wichita State over 20 years ago. Truth be told........I didn't like him at all. He kinda grew on me. Now I can't imagine where I would be without him. This guy ROCKS my world. I still see him and get butterflies. I hope I have that affect on him............I suspect I do, but you just don't know with him. He holds his cards pretty close to his chest.

She's Graduated

This weekend we celebrated the highschool graduation of our daughter Talia. We had soo much fun and I can't believe it's over. We are anticipating great things from her.

Here is a picture of our family with her. We are soo proud.

I've Been Tagged!!

My friend Tilda Tagged me SOME time ago but I just haven't had time to sit down and think of 7 Random Things about myself.

So here goes.

1. My mother is Mexican and my father is a Polish/English non-practicing Jew. Yep, that proved for some interesting times in my childhood.

2. I have 3 tattoos. One on my foot, one on my hip and one on my shoulder.

3. I eat peanut butter toast everyday for breakfast that I am home. What can I say.........I'm a creature of habit.

4. I know how to drive a stick shift but some of you don't know that for one summer I drove a wheat truck during harvest.

5. I hate being hot. I keep my house VERY cold. In fact some of my friends claim you can hang meat in my house and not worry about it going bad because I keep it so cold.

6. When I first met my husband...........I DID NOT LIKE HIM AT ALL. He kind of grew on me........LOL

7. If I were on a deserted island, I would love to be there with my hubby. I may talk about tons of "HOT" guys but truthfully..........Dave's the only man for me!

Counting down the days......

until this coming Saturday.

We have a tradition at our house. Whenever one of our children graduates from high school, we throw a huge party. For our daughter Jessica, we had 350 people show up. This upcoming Saturday we will be throwing a party for Talia. Food has been ordered, Cake has been ordered, Building for said party rented, and everyone has nice clothes to wear. I still have to pick up a few things from the party supply place but that is about it. The kids are soo excited and so are Dave and I.

On another note. Dave and I are planning a trip to Colorado next month. We are going to rent a Cadillac and go to Trinidad for a week. Sigh. We love that place! I am hoping to get some shopping done while there for the kids. If I do it right, maybe I'll get most of my Christmas shopping done!

Here is a few pics of Dave and I from this weekend. We had a nice Sunday morning ride and then went to breakfast at a place in Ark City called Daisy Mae's Cafe. The serve the best food!!

Yep, that's my boyfriend Dave. I love hanging out with him!

Awesome Weekend!!

This weekend we celebrated the 4th with lots of dear friends. I am always happy when we are able to entertain and everyone has a good time. I made tons of Mexican food, my famous enchiladas, refried beans, rice, hot pork chili and Pico De Gallo. Our friends brought dessert, pop and tons of fireworks and the fun began!! No one got hurt and everyone was gone by 1 am!

Here is a layout I did that has a few of the kids who came over........Some of those kids are ours!....LOL!
