Cocktail flu and Gnome Kidnapping
We went to an event that had over 60 people from one of our wonderful groups. What did this event involve, you might ask. Drinking, of course!
Oh MY. You know your night is going to be ... interesting when a friend volunteers to pay for your first drink of the evening & makes it a double.
What a cra-ZY night! Lots of drinking, by almost everyone. Some dancing, an air hockey smack down & a mohawk thrown in for good measure.
And a pretty blond kidnapped the mascot, Extreme Gnome. WOW was he busy, I received all KINDS of photos regarding his activity. That Gnome is one lucky lawn ornament!
Of Course, Saturday I paid for all of it. You guessed it, the Cocktail flu! It was a nasty little booger, but at least it had about run it's course around 1pm with the help of SEVERAL bottles of water.

The Big 4-0 Birthday Bash….One for the Record Books!
The Big 4-0 birthday bash has come and gone. A big thanks to all who attended and made this day special! Thanks to my boyfriend who has an awesome party pad and went all out with catering, fireworks and a huge sign in the front yard! Thanks to Tini and Cosmo who did an awesome job decorating! We had bubble makers, water balloons and other fun toys. It was perfect for me since I’m a kid at heart and I’m glad they realize that about me. Even the record setting rain storms couldn’t dampen my spirit…no pun intended there. It was my birthday and I was going to have fun. I drank Cosmo Coladas. (Ooops no rum runners tonight but Rummy sounds so much better than Colady don’t you think?). My gifts were totally appropriate for a tom girl or sporty spice - A trip to Jamaica, balloons, rock climbing shoes and food gift cards. Some of the highlights were the fireworks, midnight drunken jet skiing and standing in the rain by the Happy Birthday sign in the front yard at 2 am getting passing cars to beep! I’m not sure if they were beeping to congratulate me or to keep me out of the road but it was fun either way. So while I am growing older I am definitely not growing up and I wouldn’t have it any other way. Take a chance and be silly today. Life is a lot more fun that way!
