Bowling....

I look forward to bowling every week.  Not because of bowling really but seeing and interacting with some really fun ladies!  I have made some really good friends and I just feel loved as silly as that might sound. I get "hugs" every single week from a few of the ladies.....I love hugs!  I missed last week and I had a handful of ladies come up to me and tell me that they missed me. :)  Taryn and I mesh well and love seeing each other every week.  We always hug each other and cheer each other on.  We like to get loud and drive others crazy.  Some people think you should be quiet and serious at bowling....NOT me or Taryn.  We Woo Hoo Hoo & Holler and have a good time!  We cheer for everyone!   I seriously think most people love the happiness and cheer we add to their Thursdays!  I see them smile! :)

Today I was surprised to see my cute grand, Kamryn at bowling.  I was walking past a pole and thought I saw her and when I got to the other side of the pole where I could see her again we both lit up!  At first we both had the questionable look on our face wondering if we were seeing right.  She ran to me and jumped into my arms! Ohhhh......I LOVE my Grands!  I asked permission to go show her off.  I am so proud of each of my grands....they all light up my life so much!

31 years goes fast!

Today we celebrate the birthday of Trichelle Marie......Oh I love her!  I am so thankful to be Trichelle's mom and friend.  Trichelle is so much fun and absolutely beautiful inside and out!  I know I've said it before but it was her that made my childhood dreams come true.  I always wanted to be a mommy and was thrilled when Trichelle was born.  She was the cutest baby and I was so proud to be her mommy. (still am!)  I have always felt that way about her and her siblings.  I couldn't have picked any cuter or greater kids.

Trichelle has always been smart and sensitive, and kind, and honest, and loving, and respectful, and fun, and funny, and a hard worker.  It's hard to believe that she is 31.  I still picture her as my little girl. (Heck I still picture myself as my parents little girl)  I cherish the years that we have together and look forward to many, many more!!!

Wicked!!!

Last year, the first weekend in Sept, I received a text from Heather Anderson asking me if I wanted tickets to Wicked for August of 2012.  I was in Bear Lake at the time with some High School friends.  We all jumped on the idea and ordered our tickets.  I was soooooo excited!  I have wanted to see Wicked for a few years but just couldn't afford the price of the tickets.  These prices were much better and super good seats.  I decided that my girls would love going with me and so I decided that for their birthdays this would be their gift.  Natalie got her ticket in January and had to wait.  Trichelle's birthday is actually today and so we got to go a day early for hers and Julie got her present a month early. (her birthday is in Sept)  I would have got a ticket for Kimleighel also but it was her 16th birthday and she wanted a big party and I wouldn't let her have both. (I'm mean like that)

So really I had three tickets and when Julie joined our family I debated on what to do.  I know that Julie would have totally understood that we had the tickets before she was in the family and she wouldn't have felt bad for not being included.  But, I would feel bad and so I had finally decided that I would send the girls and wait for another opportunity to go.  Some how I was talking to Heather about it and she said that she would check and see if she could get me another ticket....her mom also wanted another one.  I was elated that she was able to get another ticket for the same night. (I know I was being blessed for being unselfish.....I totally believe it)  I even got to sit by Barbie which was a complete surprise and I nice one!  We had great seats and the play was very enjoyable!  It's at the top of my Favorite Plays ever!

My friend Davaleen went and this was her summary that she put on Face Book:

"The play "Wicked " was awesome, it's the back story of the Wizard of Oz and how Glenda the good witch and the wicked witch of the west were college roommates and best friends.How they came to Oz and who the scarecrow. Tin man and lion really were and how they became that way. And what really happened when the witch "supposedly " melted. The play was hilarious and joyful and very touching."

Since Kimi didn't come I think if I get the chance at some tickets again I will take her.  Kimi would love it too.  It was a FUN night with the girls!

I'm really glad that Heather thought of me when she was able to get tickets.  So nice of her to share her in with others.
