Here's a gooey, romantic game of tag.Here's how it works: I will answer questions about Tyrone. At the end of the post, I'll tag 3 people and post their names. Then, those three people can do the same thing on their own blog and so on and so forth. Feel free to do this on your blog anyway - even if you're not tagged!

Girls Night!

The other night Lexy and I were driving to grab dinner for the family and she asked me what is the longest i have been friends with someone and who my oldest friend is. I was surprised myself when I answered "I have been friends with Kristen for 28 years!" We met when we were 4 years old and still see each other now. Along with Kristen, the group we hung around with through jr high and high school still try to get together periodically. This last Friday night we had a "girls night" and my house. We had dinner and played games. It was so much fun we have decided to make it a monthly event. I am lucky to have so many good friends!!

Christmas Time...Bah Humbug

I finally gave in! I have been avoiding buying a tree for a couple of years now. Before meeting Tyrone and the girls I had three small trees that i would set up with ribbon and lights and it worked great for my single life! Well for the last couple of years I have been trying to convince everyone else that we don't need a new tree... I finally caved. I dont know why but I am a bit of a scrooge this time of year. Maybe its the fact that i am not a big fan of the cold winter in general or maybe it is just the stress and let down of Christmas that i get caught up in. But I have realized that my irritations of others forgetting the true meaning of Christmas has caused me to forget it also. So last weekend we bought our first Christmas tree as a family! Tyrone and I assembled the tree and then, with a little instruction, the girls decorated it! It was SO much fun! Since Tyrone has been married before we really enjoy all the "firsts" we share as a family! MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Twilight!!

Well believe it or not I was one of the crazy women who went to the midnight show of Twilight!

My friends and I bought our tickets way in advance. On the day of the show me, Kristen and Cherie waited for 5 hours outside the theatre (I bailed for a little while and went to work) for wrist bands to claim our spot in line that evening.

Although I didn't love the show like most of the fans it was a very fun experience. I will not think much about the movie but I will cherish the time I spent planning it with Kristen, waiting in line in the morning with her and Cherie, going to a late dinner with Jenny and Kasey and being able to share the experience with Kaitlyn!

Break a Leg!

You may or may not know that Kaitlyn's dream is to be a famous actress when she gets older. She has been in a couple of smaller plays growing up. But unfortunately her last few auditions have not gone as she hoped. Well things seem to be turning around. Kaitlyn tried out for a part in Scrooge at the Terrace plaza playhouse and she made it!! She has a small part but was so happy and knows you have to start somewhere! It has been so fun to see her so happy, make new friends and gain new confidence! She will have 18 performances of Scrooge and she looks forward to everyone of them! The other night while I was taking her to her play she told me that she had googled her own name and it came up, that is just the beginning of her road to fame! This last Saturday she tried out for a part in Music Man and got a call back for this week...keep your fingers crossed!!

Go Ashley!!

Its been a long time since I have blogged so i thought I would do a quick catch up!

Ashley is playing basketball for the first the first time this fall. It wasn't going very well at first. She was so lost and scared her first game that she would play again for three weeks. I tried to give her the "you need to face your fears and be tough" speech and "you'll never learn if you don't try" I even tried the "we all get scared sometimes". None of these worked so I went with bribery! It worked! She has been playing and LOVING it!! She is the only girl on her team and is doing a fantastic job. She even told us this week that she wants to play again next year!!
