Party Animals

Seems like there are a lot of people getting another year older during this and last month. I'm really bad about remembering birthdays...good thing I have Facebook to remind me so I don't look like a complete jerk and forget all my friends' birthdays.

We had 2 birthday parties this past week. *As anyone who knows my family knows...we don't let a birthday go by without using it as a good excuse to get together and eat cake. We love some cake.* The first party this past week was for my husband, Billy.

The second was for my sister, Amanda, who is actually currently in Mexico on her honeymoon right now. I am very jealous of excited for her.

We had a wedding over the weekend, and I am officially not the only old married lady in the family anymore. Now mom can get on Amanda's case about filling her grand baby craving. ;) Somehow I doubt that will let me off the hook...mom is relentless about wanting to have enough grandbabies to fill that 15 passenger van of hers that Dad keeps trying to get rid of.

Coming from a family with lots of cousins, and lots of family to celebrate special occasions with...I understand where she's coming from. I love being from a big family...most of the time. ;)

Families, and having another year with some of my favorite people, are things I'm really glad to have. Plus it's always fun to get together, and eat cake and ice cream of course...but I don't usually need an excuse to do that. ;)
