amazed. blessed. unbelievely lucky. so so so happy. and even a bit exhausted.
I cannot express how I am feeling today. Last night my friend M was taking me to a party at
Lynn Wyatt's house. To make a long story short, he told me a friend of his got invited and that friend wanted us to come as well. Being a trusting friend and never one to turn down the possibility of meeting Bon Jovi (who he said was rumored to be there), I accepted with great pleasure. We were planning on meeting at my sister's for drinks prior to the party.
Imagine my surprise when we showed up at my sister's house and 90% of the people that I adore in my life being there, including BK, one of my besties from high school! It took a few minutes to register than 1) everyone was here for me! 2)no we weren't meeting Bon Jovi and 3) there was no other party! I don't think I stopped smiling for at least an hour after the surprise. And I know I have never felt more loved :)
I don't think I snapped a single photo last night - my dear hubs and friends took over that job. Everyone was dressed in pink! We had tons of food and even a photo booth!
dress: Banana Repulic outlet
shoes: Gucci, remix'd
necklace: Anthropologie
Of course I snapped a remix photo prior to leaving for the party. I bought this dress at the outlet mall last month and love it! The shoes were from last year, my absolute favorite pair ever! And the Stormy Seas necklace from Anthro was the huge hit of the night.
And as much as I love looking fabulous and having new clothes, nothing, nothing can replace the wonderful people I call my family and friends. And that's all I ever want for my birthday.
I am so lucky that my baby sister is my best friend too! I am even luckier that she and her family moved down to H-town a couple years ago.
I can't imagine not getting my daily fix of the little peanut!
all items remix'd!
I love you more than you know! (p.s. photos to come...I am on our laptop and not the desktop at this moment).
Have a great day!
My faves are the first (Madonna cinched up the side) and last (Beijing 2008 halter, which is very timely indeed!).
We also spent some time shopping and getting my poor IPod looked at. He worked this morning, but the prognosis is not good. He just keeps getting too wet after I run.
We'll see if it works!
After work this afternoon I am off to the airport and Phoenix. Joe's big race is tomorrow. And after that, no more Ironmans for a long time (I hope!).
I have a feeling that most of the Joe-oriented photos this month are going to be related to swimming, cycling or running. The IMAZ (Ironman Arizona) is about 6 weeks away and he is very focused, especially since he found out his online coach, who has 4 students at that race, will be there!
Joe and I drove to Austin yesterday to visit with Tinger and BoomBoom. The boys were running the marathon (Boom) and half-marathon (Joe) while Tinger and I were their cheerleaders.
Tinger and I did a little window shopping while the boys picked up their packets. The four of us then drove the race course (Joe's suggestion, of course) before having an early dinner and calling it a night.
This morning started bright and early. We picked T+B up at their hotel around 5:30 am. After a light breatkfast we saw our runners off at the finish line. We were able to see them both at mile 6. 
Tinger made the cutest tees for us to wear during the race. Unfortunately we weren't able to reveal them until the end as the temperature was quite chilly!
The 4 of us had a yummy brunch at Kerby Lane before Joe and I had to leave. We made it back to h-town in less, than 3 hours, and now Joe is riding his bike for 2 hours! 
{Yes, I know, he is craz-ee!}
We are meeting them in Austin, where Joe is running the half marathon and Boom the full on Sunday. I'll be taking lots of pics!
unti Ting comes to visit! I am looking forward to hanging out, talking, and scrapping with her!
Here is photos of my studly husband and sister. Joe running the last leg of his ironman.
