Palm Desert Weekend

We met the Damato's and Thomas family in Palm Desert this past weekend!

We had a great time being together, cooking, shopping, helping the kids scrapbook and relaxing by the pool.
We even had a special birthday dinner celebration for Marie!
We wish we could do this more often...
God has truly blessed us with awesome friends!

Grace turns...8!

We can hardly believe it! Gracie turned "8"!

She had us over for a birthday celebration dinner complete with her favorite ice cream cake.

We love you Gracie and pray that God blesses you this coming year...

A day at home...

We spent the day at home today...

We needed to do some things around the house and get caught up bit! Daniel did the "outside" things and I did the "inside" things...

One of Daniel's outside things was to check on our little "garden"...we have 2 baby tomatoes and a new flower bud starting!!!

We also enjoyed having our neighbors - the Shumate's - over for dinner!

A Fabulous "50th" Celebration!

My friend Barbara turned "50" on Saturday!

She hosted a Fabulous "50th" Cuban Birthday Bash!
The party was complete with great Cuban food, libations and salsa dancing!

We all had a great time...and doesn't she look Fabulous (she's the one in the red dress)?!?!
