Did Someone Say Birthday?


So I am seriously such a spaz...one of these days I will learn how to take a chill pill and relax, but until then I will continue to be the time/planning/decorating nazi. I have spent the last couple of days stressing about making Matt's birthday super great and in the mean time getting super irritated with El Paso(the people, their driving, the stores, the roads!) It probably doesn't help that I had to drive all over the state to find crepe paper and balloons and a happy birthday sign...none of them could possibly be at the same store because that would just be silly. Anyways I think we pulled it altogether and it turned out really great and I didn't have a nervous breakdown afterall.
I seriously LOVE holidays and parties and decorating and all that jazz but I am seriously OCD about things matching and having a theme and being here out of my ellement and without proper supplies really threw me for a loop.





Matt(aka Boss Man) and Camee


Camee didn't think the party would be complete without some White Trash...boy was it good and super white trashy




Molly still isn't sure how to chew with her mouth closed...we are trying to train her

This post made me happy cuz I love parties, too. Wait til you see photos of the party we threw tonight for Olivia!! (5th grade grad party) Let's just say Martin's the man in the decor department.

Looks like your "poops" had an awesome party. You truly are amazing with all your decorations. He's so lucky to have you, do you know that???

One more thing to add: HOLY HUGE TV on your wall!!!

SO So So cute and fun! I too love a good party to plan. Even in good ole El paso you didn't disappoint. I thought of you all last week when we were listening to someone sing Karaoke at a mexican taco place. They were singing Garth Brooks song "friends in low places" but sang the lyrics "cause I got friends in El Paso Texas"... while everyone sang along. So so funny! Especially because we actually do have "friends" in EL Paso texas! Oh' gotta love it. Gotta love you guys!

I'm glad to see that Matt had a good time at his party. I have to say that I was totally just kidding about the staying in Logan thing. Of coarse we are going to be neighbors forever someday!

YEAH! So happy to see you haven't changed one bit. I remember the good ol' days of you stressing of how to send Matt the perfect birthday package. How could he not love you with those themed-packages you put together?!!! And, of course extra stuff for his companion too!

You are the best! Lucky poop boy!
