We So Excited!




Lovin' Friday right now...looooong week!! To much on the 'to do' list this weekend, but the sunshine that shone shiney bright today, makes me happy!
Fun snail mail today! Graduation announcements and invites are starting to arrive, trumpeting the arrival of such a fun time of year! Yes, that's right! Summer is right around the corner!!! As fun as it is, it's so hard to accept the reality that my kids and many of my friend's kids are growing up so fast and will be headed off into the great big world soon! 2011 Graduates were just four years old and in preschool just the other day!
As hard as it is, I am excited for the future! I think it brings back lots of memories of when I was Aspen's age! What was I doing, thinking, wanting, dreaming, learning, watching???
I was delighted when Aspen said she'd go with me to drop of a meal off for a friend who recently had surgery.
I love and cherish the conversations we might have...car rides are a mom's best friend and probably a teenager's worst enemy. :)
She told me her and her bestie wanted to go see "Fast Five" this weekend??...I'm like, what?...a movie about cars?... and then I swirved the 'ol 'When I was your age', exactly your age, my friends and I saw "Top Gun" seven times...at the movie theatre...and paid FULL PRICE...$4.50 each time!
We were more intersted in beach volleyball, karoke, and romantic storylines!
Cars? Really? It can't be all about cars?? Oh well...I guess that's a good thing.
Maybe I should Netflix "Top Gun" and show that girl a real movie! A movie about... about... MiG's??!
Is that what I told my mom?
