I’m really beginning to despise school and the amount of time it is consuming in my life…
No real worries, although.
The reason I mentioned it is because this year, school got in the way, not only with daily blogging, but celebrating my Mom’s birthday with her. It’s okay because she truly is an amazing woman, and always understands when I have conflicting priorities (which is, like, all the time!). Even though she will admit she’s not perfect, I think she is a lot more perfect of a mom than she will give herself credit for! She’ll drive across town if I need her to, help me put up “Lost Dog” signs at midnight in the rain, talk to me for hours to help me solve a problem, help me with school work, or just to listen…
Even though she is a little kooky and crazy at times, she’s still one of the most sensible, kind-hearted, selfless and caring people I know, and I hope she forgives me for posting this two days after her birthday!!! I love you Mom!
This picture is from Christmas 2007. Santa left the hat in my stocking (he got it at the dollar store). It just happened to match my sweater.
Sharing a birthday with my mom, is one of my best friends, Ashley. She is the jazziest flight attendant in the world, and an awesome asset to Continental Airlines. In September, I jetted off to Denver with her for 9 hours, and earlier this month, Chad and I zipped up to Minneapolis with her for 32 hours! We sampled the local bars, tried some of the best pizza ever, and had the greatest view out of our hotel room. (Pictures are coming!)
I didn’t get to celebrate her birthday with her because she zipped off to London for the week! Ashely, I hope you had the jazziest 20-something birthday! You deserve it!
This shot is from October when we to a (private) neighborhood park for a photo shoot (oops). We later went to an elementary school and Ash rolled around in wood chips.
