Because I haven't celebrated my birthday quite enough yet, I invited all of my "homies" (friends that I have had since Marist High School) and some adopted "homies" (the Mc Carthys and the Bells) for a night out on the town in honor of me!!!! We all met at El Torito at 5:30 in hopes of going to the movie "Slumdog Millionaire" at 7:45. But alas it was not meant to be . . . we ended up getting to the movie too late and it was already sold out. So after some deliberation, (and time to get over my disappointment), we decided to go have have dessert instead. Hence the HUGE ice cream sundaes Chad and Pancho are enjoying above!

This picture just epitomizes Chad and Panch to me - ha ha!

Good times with good friends that share a lifetime of memories. . .

Saturday was a busy day, because after cutting every ones hair and going to Sam's Basketball game, we headed for the Hult Center to watch a production of the play "ANNIE" with my parents. I have to admit that when I was 10 or 11 Annie was my favorite play in the whole world. My parents took us to London on a family vacation when I was that age and I got to see Annie 3 times while I was there. I have LOVED it ever since. So I was so excited to take the kids. Lucy was was just as excited as me or maybe even more so. She has watched the movie about 25 times, so she couldn't wait to see the play. The boys weren't so sure at first, but they ended up loving it too!

Did you know that I am the hairstylist for every member of my family (except myself - Thank God) OK, may be you have already guessed that from the wonderful hairstyles that my children and husband so proudly sport, but in case you hadn't made that connection, yes it is true - "cutting hair" is one of my many hidden talents. So I started off Saturday morning by cutting Sam, Max, Lucy and then Pancho's hair. Always so much fun!
