My most amazing Birthday weekend!!

Wow...this was only the single most amazing Birthday EVER! My little sister (and bestest friend) surprised me with my close friend JennyKate! You all know her from Jennykate's spot! I am so happy that you came JennyKate...seeing you was beyond words...it was so surreal to actually see her! Me and JennyKate met on the computer. We talk on the phone constantly and we have been friends for about a year, but we had never seen eachother. My sister and brother in law picked her up from the airport and hid her all day on Friday, later that night they brought her to Fridays for my Birthday dinner. Here is a video clip from that most amazing moment:

The best husband ever, me and JennyKate!

We just had to go see Twilight together! It was both our 3rd time..hehe
JennyKate had NEVER had sushi...so you bet we headed to the Sushi Bar! She loved it...The Saki...not so much!

THEN...as if JennyKate was not enough of a birthday surprise, my mom and sister through me a surprise party....a TWILIGHT party!!

This was only the BEST cake EVER!!!!!

Look at the apples on the table...my mom was so cute with all the Twilight details! She even made Blood red punch!!

Ummmm ya.....my sister and Gabe bought me the iCarly charades game...i will so kick butt at this!! hehe

Thank you to my wonderful sister for bringing JennyKay here and for this amazing and unforgettable Birthday!!

This has been just the best weekend! To top it off me and JennyKate are sitting here side by side blogging!! How crazy is that??

So here it goes...6 things that I Value:


1. God and my faith in him.

2. My husband Randy. He is a blessing. I love him so much, he is the best thing that has ever happened to me. I am so excited to spend the rest of my life with him!

3. My three kids. They are my world!

4. My family. My mom, dad, sister and brother in law mean everything to me. And my in laws...I cannot forget them too...I so love them and I am so blessed to have them!

5. The friendships that I have. I admit that for whatever reason...I don't have to many...but the one's I do have are very, very special and valuable to me!

6. Materialistic people. There are things that I like to have...but I am talking about the people who base there entire existence on fancy cars and name brand crap. People who value "things" more than anything else....man i cannot stand that! They have no clue...it's sad really.

Okay so now to pass this on to SIX people!! Here is my list:
