Colby's Birthday Party

Colby celebrated his birthday w/a skate party. His actual birthday is on the 13th, but we had his party early to accommodate everyone's hectic schedules. He received lots of great presents and said, 'This was the best birthday EVER!' Thank you to everyone who came. Here are a few pics from the party.

Mardi Gras 2008

Although today is Fat Tuesday, we won't be celebrating! Perhaps we will celebrate at home! LOL! We went to Shreveport for our annual Mardi Gras trip this past weekend. We left town on Friday and returned on Sunday in time for the Super Bowl. The weather this year was great! Last year it was a bit on the chilly side. This year we had a 65 degree sunny day. We decided this year to donate most of our beads to Aunt Bonnie so she could take them to the elderly at nursing homes. We kept a few 'special' beads and we came home with lots of cups and other goodies. Can't wait until next year!
