Good Times

Here we are:  Me, Patti Marquez, and Becky Phillips .  We went to PF Changs for Patti's 50th (SHHHHHH) Birthday!
We had Lettuce wraps, Noodles, Chow mein, Mandarin chicken, Mu Shu Chicken and fun talking!!  Oh and of course a small dessert, what they call a mini dessert.


My Sweet grand daughter was at my house when I got  home so I said, Let me put you on my blog.  Ashtyn is 5 1/2 years old and has just started kindergarten!  She is a sweet little girl and loves her teacher Mrs. Burton. She spent the night with me a few weeks ago and in the middle of the night fell off my bed while sleeping!  She was so brave, she jumped right back up on the bed and said she was fine-and then went right back to sleep. Talk about amazing!!
I really love her.
More Grandkids later!

Here is my best Friend.

This is my husband,  He and I have been married 23 years, or something like that.  Does it really matter?
We have had a rough 20 years and have found that sticking it out with your mate is the answer.  He may seem  mean sometimes and he may not always do what I want, but he loves ME and that's what counts. I sometimes wonder how he puts up with me.  There were some days that I can say I really didn't like him, but that was because I was being selfish.  I can see that now, but try and tell me that years ago, I would have argued with you!!!
See his sweet smiling face. He is really good to me.
I notice that as the years have gone by our thinking has began to merge. You  know how osmosis works?  Well marriage can be the same way. So, yes, it can be bad or good!  Hopefully yours is good.
One piece of advice as far as marriage goes.  "Always try to have some things in common". Even if  your tastes change in the next few years and more than likely they will, try some new stuff.  For example, my husband loves Football.  He loves being an official for football too. So one year he had a game to officiate on my birth date.  I love my birthday, but I went for him that year, and it was probably the best birthday I had.  I had lots of attention from his buddies because of the sacrifice I made for him on MY birthday. Do I like Football?  No, and I never will.  But I go.. for him.  So try to always keep an open mind and find common interests even when its not something you really want to do. TRY IT!  You might actually like doing it, or just maybe you like it because it makes HIM happy.  :)

I'm a new blogger!!

Hello everyone out there!  I decided to begin my own blog and introduce to you all my family, my friends and my thoughts.

In my blog, you will be entertained by  my whit, my true personality and my honest opinion!  I know, refreshing, huh?  LOL
