I've learned that my universe is never going to be in perfect rotation. For the most part I am ok with that. But what I also learned are some of the many things that make my life awesome. Exciting. Unpredictable. And blessed....
This past weekend I hosted a bridal shower for an amazing friend Becky. I stressed out for the week before because I didn't feel well and felt that it may be quite possible I showed up in sweatpants. To my surprise--it turned out great. She enjoyed it and so did everyone who attended. These are some of the little decorations I put together:
The night before the shower my middle sis went to celebrate a friends 21st birthday. Now being the great big sister I am, I offered them a ride if needed. She never takes me up on it. However this time she did. Luckily my mom was up for the shower and has a mini van. So we headed to the 'ville for those of you that know what that is...and intended on picking up a few kiddos.
A few means a dozen. No lie. But it was a seriously funny memory and I am so glad I was there for it, even if I didn't get to bed til way after 3 which is 5 hours later than normal.
The bachlorette party portion of the weekend provided me with a little insight on a couple things: 1. I cannot party like I used to in any way, shape, or form. I am getting old. 2. My mom is a good sport on party games. Although I learned way more about everyone there-including her and my sisters-than I really wanted to. But it was fun.
I am hoping I can get back into the swing of things after a week of stress and start blogging more regularly. There is always something going on, much to my surprise, and usually out of my control. But the one thing I am thankful for is the smiles and memories I have in my life.
