Happy 4th Birthday Jack

Jack turned 4 years old yesterday. My kids are getting really old. Jack had to wait until Bob got home from work at 6:30. The anticipation just about killed him off. He was so excited to open his presents that his hands were shaking. It was so cute. He got a bike that moves by turning the wheel back and forth, money, a bank, and squirt gun. We then went outside to hit the pinata. It was going well until Devon hit it so hard that the candy became flying weapons. One which hit my mom in the jaw. Nice. Anyway...doughnuts are the cake of choice around here. Jack... thanks for keeping us on our toes. You are a darling, even when you yell at us to get your chocolate milk. Love you.

Happy Birthday BOB

Yes I am a few days late but that is my life. Happy 38th birthday to my handsome husband, BOB, on June 5th. Anyone who knows BOB knows what I am saying when I say that he is the nicest person ever. It seems like he and I were made for each other. Bob would do anything for me. Bob is caring, thoughtful, a hard worker, handsome, smart, and fun. I love you BOB.

We had Mother's Day at my house. My kids gave me an ihome for my cycling classes which I really needed. It was a really nice day. Kristi and her family, Mandy and her family and my parents came. I didn't even get a picture of my mom. Crap!

REFRESHING!!!!!

BOB and I decided to go on a cruise the end of March. Yes, without kids. Nine days without kids! I didn't have to get anyone a drink, bath, new underwear, cook dinner, clean, wash, wipe noses, etc, etc. We flew to Florida on a Saturday and boarded our boat which was Royal Caribbeans Independence of the Seas. We had a beautiful room with a balcony overlooking the Caribbean. ( Devon is 16 years old and I went on my honeymoon when he was 4 yrs. old but since then I have only been away for a few days here and there.) I had no idea what it meant to have no schedule. Time meant nothing unless we were wondering if the cafe was open for our 5th meal of the day or 6th dessert or just to know when Mr. Sprinkles the ice cream machine was still open. Did I mention how good the food was? Yes we gained a few lbs. Anyway, back to time meaning nothing, we would stay awake until 2 AM and wake up when we wanted to. It was wonderful. We stopped in Belize, Cozumel, and Costa Maya. The weather was beautiful. I loved spending so much time with my husband. I love him!!!
