The big 5-0

My Dad's party was a hit....if I do say so myself. here's the cutie stopping what he was doing for a moment so that I could get a photo op of him.....ain't he a cutie pie. Doesn't even look 50 does he? Here's my daddy collecting his loot. And wearing the big button the read "Over the Hill" he did it wiht out a fit too he was a good sport about it.

Here it is....what he and my sister take pride in....the cake......it doesn't get much nicer then that does it?

When you walked in to the house we had records hanging every where and jukebox's it was pretty sweet......

I think the sister and I may have a knack for decorating for birthdays....

Our Saturdays

This is what happens at our house on a Saturday night when you have washable markers, are broke and bored.......

UP before the Sun

It happened yet again. Every Friday my day off from not having to get my child up, make lunches, and send him off to school, I wake up at the crack of dawn's early and I mean early light. By this time after the devotions are read I sit here and debate..should I go back to bed to get warm? Should I watch a little T.V.? Should I take a shower? Should I start the day with some laundry?

Choices...........Choices........

But one choice that is for sure, is that we are going to party till we are purple tonight. It's our dad's 50Th birthday party ( not officially 50 till Sunday), all the decorations are hanging and everything is in place. After everything was done we took a step back and prided ourselves on what we had accomplished. Our creative bug bit us and we showed it what we got. It's a mess of sheer beauty.

Then came the talk to the kids which we all knew went through one ear and out the other.....they must get that from the father...I plead the 5th on my side.

So with my party hat nearly on and the house needing to be cleaned a bit (alot), I have made my choice and this hinny of mine is going back to bed....it's early what the heck am I doing up right now....but then again in a few minutes the sun will be telling me good morning with it's ray's. Aww what the heck I got an eye mask around here somewhere.

Pictures of the party coming soon!

Back to the roots

Can you believe this I have been away from this blog for 2 months now.. Shame Shame! But I must say it is very good to be back, I tried to go to something new but I had to come back to my baby. Isn't the Lord good.....his Love indeed does endure forever.

So this must be put into Salas history, with our recent addition to our family it only mad sense (to me apparently) to switch rooms with the kids....the idea hit my mind for sometime now and I was determined to do it. So I did! Yesterday!

It was a grueling process that seems to have made me regret it and my hubby regret listening to me. It went rather smoothly..which was odd for us because we are used to have a flub up now and then.

The it hit...and big hurdle...and I mean big...never the less we did it we finished my peewee idea...that I will never think of again and spent the night in our "new" rooms.

Now as I am sitting here typing this I feel every piece of furniture I moved, and then some.

But baby I am back even if this is just something I do for me you are welcome to come join me.
