Well as Louise's birthday has now came and went...it was great! We had the best weekend! (With the exception daddy was not here...but its nice to have just us girls together!) So lets just start with her birthday on Thursday!

Thursday morning I brought her and Janet and Michelle breakfast, and Laurie brought her flowers! so already its started off pretty good! Then her co-workers cooked her lunch and made her a delicious strawberry cake! It was fun and when the work day was over it was great! So after work, I ran home to clean like a mad woman before we had everyone over for Louise's surprise party. During the day I had gotten in touch with Kristen McCants and Michelle and Justin Bond to come over for just a little party....And I forgot to mention the biggest surprise is MOM!! She got to the house about 6:30 and helped me finish up cleaning and Nathan met us at the house too. We ran to the store and then came home and made all the stuff real quick and the guest arrived at 7:30. We sat there and waited on Laurie, Leslie, Dirt, and the guest of honor to get there. They were all at the basketball game but I thought they were leaving at half time. Well an hour later we realized that they were not leaving early...but it was fine because while they were at the game they found Walker and his friend Todd to come "eat cookies" with us. (That was the lie we told Louise to get her to come to the house... :) We are so sneaky!)

Finally they all arrived and Louise was shocked that her Friends were there but she was totally floored that mom was there. She wasn't expecting her til Friday; she was coming on the 16th for Jewels that Laurie was speaking in. (There is a blog by itself coming on that....) So all around it was great and we got to spend a lot of good girl family time together! It was nice to do...and no fighting if you can believe that! :)
