February 2016

Feb 2-
^Photo bombed by the cat. :) I'm glad. Cute picture. I take photos of food a lot for work in an effort to help with healthy food option ideas for clients.
^Girls night! Tuesday nights are only $5, so we use it as an excuse to go out together. Crepes are a total weakness for me at the theater.
^Love these ladies! We invite a whole slew of women in the neighborhood every time. We always get a different crowd. 

Feb 3-
^Madison and her buddy Timmy holding hands, walking out of preschool.

Feb 4-
^Madison and I attend the library story time. Good excuse to get out of the house. Sometimes she is super shy in the class and just wants to sit in my lap.
^Ed and his buddy went to a concert. He cooperates and takes pic for me. Gotta have his life too!

^PROM DAY! We look forward to it every year! What a wonderful tradition, and Brio does a great job for our large group. Good quality and quantity of food. Yum!
^50's theme this year. New cheap dress. Fun to get in character and dress in a different decade. Cami did my hair. 
^Some of the party peeps! Love our neighborhood friends that come. We invite all. Ogdens, Parkers, Prices, Gilchrists, US, Spens, Holmes, Yeates,  and Hawes.
^Millers, Stephans, Huntsmans, Strongs, Briggs, Mayfields, and Johnsons.
^Group photo! Thanks everyone for the participation!

After dinner we take pics, do a group lip-sync, watch prerecorded lip syncs provided by the daring guests. :) Then we dance! Always wonderful memories.

^Pancho fun!
^Love how comfortable we are together! Fun to take silly pics!
^Like this!

^We went back for more.
^Good times! As long as we have drugs to get rid of our motion sickness! :)
^Daily Universal sign pic.
^An upside down house.
^Someone suggested we do this. The pizza was like floppy cardboard pizza. Not great, but the Magician was cool. :)

^Dinner wasn't the most satisfying- so we ended up doing a little shopping, and going to get some apps and dessert in a restaurant with a live band. It was so fun! They were great entertainers and Ed sneakily made me get up on stage and sing a song with them. Life's too short. Gotta have fun and enjoy the moment and let go!
