Penny's Birthday Celebration!

Last night was Cole's ball game in Ursa.  The team played awesome and the boys were all so excited that they scored another win!  So proud of them all!  Last night Cole had his own little cheering section!  Mom, Dennis, Gma Trone, Bev, Anna, Brody and I were all there rooting them on!  Cole felt pretty special and had a couple really good hits!  One got a guy to home and the other Cole made it to second base with one hit!  He was proud of himself and we were cheering LOUDLY for him!  He loves ball!

Today we managed to go through the boys rooms and pull out spare toys for a garage sale.  We ended up with a HUGE tote to sell.  This shocks me because we just de-cluttered the toy boxes before we moved, but Cole was ready to part with more toys and I threw in some of the toys Brody no longer plays with since he's growing up more and more.  We skimmed them down and hopefully make a nice little profit off of them so that I can turn around and buy me some second hand clothes that will fit me this winter!

I am about done marking the garage sale stuff.  I have the upstairs almost de-cluttered and all marked.  I have a couple closets to go through yet, the ones that have knick knacks and such in them and then a few totes to go through from the basement.  I'm kinda scared to go down there now though because of that large "worm" that was down there.  That's what I just keep telling myself to make me feel better... it was a worm not a baby snake!  It was dead, but it had to be alive at one point in time to get down there so it just plain creeps me out big time.  EEEEEkkkkk.  I might have to recruit Joe to come help me one evening go and pull the totes out in the open and have him pilfer through them and make sure nothing is in them and then I will finish up going through the stuff.  Ugh.  I will NOT go at this alone... I am too big of a chicken.  I also need to talk to my pest man and tell him about the little snake and see what they can do about that?  Maybe he has a few tricks up his sleeves?  Who knows?

As for everything else... I am happy to say that we are back together after the party and all put away.  I feel good about it all.  It was such a fun night and I am so happy that everyone came to celebrate with us and everyone had a nice time. 

Tonight is Penny's birthday.  We are all meeting up at the Mexican place in Macomb for supper and a few drinks then moving on to the bar "Hangovers" to sing some Karaoke!  I am excited to see everyone again and have some fun with my friends where I don't have to spend the day working to make sure things turn out okay and helping everyone else.  I can just hang with my girls tonight, get weighted on and ENJOY myself for a change.  Anna is coming to stay with the boys.  I par boiled up some chicken this morning.  I then put it in the crock pot with some BBQ sauce  and am making them some twice baked potatoes for supper.  I need to dig out a veggie for them and they will be all set for a masterpiece of a meal!  Cole's so excited to have Anna come stay here with him till Daddy gets home! 

Well I best be getting my butt in gear... It takes a few hours to make this chick beautiful, so I gotta get to work!  ha ha ha
