Such a proud Aunt...

Brooke had her first Solo Dance Competition today! She did amazing.. here are some photos...

I picked up Mikey from Frontier Fiesta, where he has been cooking for 2 straight days without sleep. He was pretty much a walking zombie, but came to support his girl!

I told Brooke that i wasn't pretty enough to take a photo and she said "I don't care"... glad she loves me no matter what!!!
She looked soooo cute. There were so many sparkles all over her uniform!!!
Good kick!!
Cool Move...

She is such a doll! BUT I want her to stop growing up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...and it continues...

We celebrated Cory's birthday with lunch with my family at Mamasitas on Sunday... We had a full weekend but it was spent with the people that we love!!

Happy Birthday Cory!

Happy Birthday to the guy that makes my heart smile!

We had the best day! I met Cory up at work and we went to lunch at Marco's. We had $2.50 margaritas and just enjoyed each others company.

After work, I met him over at his parents house. His dad had made breakfast for dinner. I had pecan pancakes, Cory had blueberry pancakes and we also enjoyed bacon, sausage and eggs! Captain is such a good cook! [But secretly I think my mom is better!!! LOL]

Cory opened his gifts from me [Stargate SG1: Season 1 and a Star Wars Light saber] and several cards. We spent the evening just hanging out and watching a movie with his parents. It was a quiet evening.
Friday, Cory came over and we had grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch and he played Mario brothers on the Wii. We [well he] got to level 9 but we [well he] didn't have all the star coins, so I helped him [cheated] find the coins so he cold play the new world. We haven't done much, but we've been together...that's the best part of all!

We did order pizza for a late lunch/snack. It was most delicious. Maverick was very jealous and he wanted some. We didn't give in. He got dog food...in a bowl.

Tonight we are going to party it up with my family and celebrate Justin's 30th birthday. I will post pictures later!

St. Patty's day

Nothing too exciting. Just some green beer with some good friends.

i'm sick...

i don't know what i have. but i am sick. i have made an appointment to see the dr. but i can't get in until monday. i get fever, it goes away. i get a headache, it goes away. sometimes they combine. regardless, it's not any fun and it's interrupting my social life and work schedule.

i was sick this weekend, but chose to go to the rodeo with my sister and the kids on sunday. she described me as "a walking zombie".... my head pounded with each step i took. i felt like such a weakling asking to ... wait for the tram... and ...take the escalator... but the footsteps turned into the fuel that ignited a high fever and compounding headache... i watched some of the rodeo. listened to some demi levato [through ear plugs of course] and maybe 2 jonas brothers songs until it was too much! macy and the kids gracisouly left the concert early and took me home. fever... over 100. awesome. so i called in monday..hoping i could go to the dr and get some rest and stuff... this headache business is for the birds.

did i learn my lesson? nope! wednesday, i was supposed to go to the rodeo with cory and some friends louque and kristie vann. at school wednesday, i started to get a headache. haven't had an appetite for a week or so. i take some meds. get in a good nap and by the time they are here to pick me up, headache is gone... well, had a great time sitting in all the traffic and going to the rodeo, supporting our troops and listening to a great concert. then on the way home, got REALLY thirsty... fever... not fun. i woke up this morning with 102.4 fever. chills, hot flashes, you name it, i had it. had to call in again. i hate doing this because my employees hate the person that has to cover for me. i always feel so bad for them. but such is life. i slept most of the morning. cory called and said he would be right over to bring me whatever i needed. he is the most wonderful boyfriend in the world. i am so lucky to have him. i finally broke free of my fever about 2:15pm. I feel wonderful now.... how long will this last? another 48 hours? come on... i have plans. sickness.... go away.... until i can see the dr. i could go to urgent care but it cost 3 times as much.... and i hate... did i mention i HATE going to the dr. i don't think i have been in years!!!

so i said all that to say this... i am posting some pics of the weekend of fun, from hell, and back.
