Jules turns 14

Poor Jules, he'll always have to have a Halloween themed birthday...haha

For his fourteenth birthday, Julius wanted to put the pedal to the metal... @ K-1 Go-Kart Racing... I'm pretty sure they had SOME fun...

My racers; Calcia, Julius, Frank & Michael

Halloween ~n~ stuff...

We hope everyone had a Happy Halloween!!

In our house, for about FOURTEEN years now...Halloween not only means candy being handed to you, but also candy falling from a pinata over your head, as we celebrate Julius' birthday!

Here are my babies... Yes, I can still technically call them babies...

My lil birthday boy/convict, disguise n all -

Freddy here won the prize for completely freaking his sister out...

The ''prettiest'' bad, evil fairy you'll ever meet:
((Calcia intends on trick or treating until she looks like this guy she's standing with!))

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

With... or without masks... you decide which is scarier!

Do NOT forget to vote...

Lucky in Friendship!

Apparently I'm attracted to Libras ... Yesterday was Michelle's birthday & today is DEANNA SUE's BIRTHDAY!!! I love both of these women for the same reasons; they've both made me laugh til i've pee'd my panties, made me cry til i had makeup smudged on my cheeks & they both touched my heart, even before meeting in person!

Thanks for joining the 30-club before i leave soon!

Happy Birthday Deanna!
For those of you that don't know Deanna, let me give you some key descriptions...

Deanna;

• Loves the Chicago Cubs...And somehow we are still friends through this playoff season! ;)
• Loves the Chicago Bears...I think it's how we became friends, i knew she was smart!
  
• Loves the movie "A Christmas Story"
• Is a master of a typo & doesn't believe in ''spell check''
• Is an awesome softball player
• Has mastered the art of getting so drunk, yet able to take quality pictures at the bar!
• Likes to call me mean names; & lets me call her them in return!
• Has the coolest ice cream truck driving down her block
• Makes astronaut food...and eats it...(sorta)
• Will make you laugh, even if you don't want to!!!
  
• Tosses white bread in the street in hopes of...well, let's forget about that
  

Most of all she loves her kids, walks them to school, makes sure they have the best possible holiday experiences, even when they are screaming and driving her crazier than she already is. She loves, and is loved by, her family.

She doesn't ask for much & she deserves so much more...& I admire her for reasons she sometimes doesn't even see...although sometimes i wanna smack her in the head, i love her for being her!

~~~ H A P P Y __ B I R T H D A Y !!! ~~~

Have an awesome time on your day!
Love you, my cRaZy, CrAzY biotch!

Sad, but happy...

Happy Birthday to a VERY special someone!

Michelle...forever in my heart!

Just wanted to remember my dearest friend today, which would have been her 37th birthday!!

She had a smile & a way that could turn straight women gay, gay men straight...etc...etc... HAHAHA
Did I mention she had the exact same crazy sense of humor as me?
; )

I miss you Shelley!!

Mister Rogers & The RIGHT tape!

Stylist to the ... boys?

So Calcia got creative, per the boys request...

They have been talking about wanting mohawks... So Calcia got out the buzzer & took care of business - HAHA





Only my two lil weirdos!!
Haha

Thank goodness it's summer time~! ;)

This just in...
My son is the nuttiest, ever!!!

Been trying to talk him into new glasses...
He has to take everything to the extreme! hahahaha

They are out of control I tell ya! LOL

me & my crazy, lovable kids!

Life wouldn't be the same without these kids of mine!
They make me proud, they make me laugh...
Heck, they've even made me crazy [ ok, crazier than normal ]



& you thought i only had one daughter ;)


Mommy & da boys being silly!





My crazy kids & a HUGE snake!








See, they can play nice...sometimes! =)


Me and the graduate...ugh...too big!


San Francisco Trip


SMILE BIG!


At least we have fun! :)

Oh where has the time gone?
They have grown too fast!

Oh where will the next 19 years bring me?
Ahhhhh... :-/ omg!

But i know for a fact, i shall enjoy everything!!

Trust Me...no, really...trust ME!

Where are we headed?

You really get to know your ''fellow man'' come election time. And that, my fellow man, IS scary!!! - in fact, YOU'RE scary!
Some people should have their right to vote revoked!
Oh lemme vote for 'X' because Hollywood or my friend says so.
How about voting based on skin color or which type of private part they own?
Let's make history by electing the eldest or youngest.
Maybe because of the sound of their voice or the gleaming smile they possess...

Whether these might be reasons you vote for or against, they are all reasonings I've actually heard.

Oh wait, does it matter what we want...or is it about how many delegates you can smooze or ex running mates' delegates you can obtain...the amount of money you can con out of people or the favors you can promise.

Help us! We're doomed!!

The Many Smiles of Friendship

Friendship...
It comes in so many forms & I'm blessed in so many ways!

Here is a small sampling of some of the truly awesome people I am lucky enough to call my friends!

Sometimes you're related to your...

There are some that we aren't related to by name, but the heart tells a different story...
Sometimes a friend is near, sometimes they are far...

Perhaps someone you've only met with your heart...












We can be silly...and then serious, ok seriously, we're mostly just cool!

I love them one, I love them all ...

Some you can no longer hug~
We've shared laughs & music...


















Heartbreak, broken cars & secrets...

Above all we share this beautiful thing called FRIENDSHIP!

In groups, duos or trios ... all my friends are dear, the ones I've yet to get my picture taken with, the ones I haven't seen in years & the ones I'll see tomorrow~

I love you all & thank you for being you and doing all you do!
