Yesterday morning she invited me to breakfast before I left to go to the airport and when I left, she started crying. Uugh...breaks my heart I tell ya.
I had a great trip. My Godchild's wedding was beautiful. She was such a beautiful bride, she was glowing. I'll be posting pics in the next couple of days, I have too many pics to include them all in one post.
The night that I got there everyone decided (after they'd canceled it once) to throw Destiny (my Godchild) a bachelorette party. I had jet lag from hell but decided I couldn't miss it. We had a blast. Rusty decided to come along since he and Destiny have been best friends since they were born lol. He was the only guy that came with us and he had a blast...getting us all drunk!
He introduced us all to Vegas Bombs (shots). And they're YUMMY y'all. Trust me, next time you go out...try one. But be careful. They're powerful. They sneak up on you. And then some.
Vegas Bomb
3/4 oz crown
2/4 oz peach schnapps
1/4 oz Malibu rum
A splash cranberry juice
1/2 cup of Red Bull

We had a blast, we go drunk, the bride to be was so happy to have all of us there with her. Rusty made me the happiest Momma ever because he came out with us. I can't wait to show y'all the wedding pics. Destiny was so beautiful, she was glowing.
While I was in Louisiana Hubby's daughter asked me to post a link in my blog for her and I totally spaced on it (R, I'm so sorry!!!). Here's what she posted on here blog about it...
"I think I've mentioned before that I'm signed up to do a marathon in March. I've signed up with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's Team in Training to run in the Shamrock Half Marathon over St. Patricks Day weekend. In this area, that's a HUGE event! Bands come to perform at the end. Local restaurants open up for end of race celebrations. It's a big deal.
For me this is a personal thing. I could have signed up to run the race on my own. $70 and I'd be good to go. Allowed to celebrate with everyone else at the end. But I didn't want to do that. I wanted to have a cause related to my run. In 2004 I lost a friend to Leukemia. Mike was 21. We'd gone to high school together. When I found out he was sick it was heartbreaking. Here was a guy, a young guy, who had so much going for him and he was fighting every day to survive. I saw him in 2003 at a bone marrow drive for him and was amazed at how good he looked. He seemed healthy and as full of life as ever. When I got the phone call the next year that he had passed it was rough. How could someone so young lose their life? It didn't seem fair.
Since then I have wanted to get involved with the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society in some way. Now that I've turned myself into this fit person who enjoys working out, the marathon seemed to be a great way to do that. But now I need to ask for you help. I'll tie on my sneakers and do the running, but I need you to please help me earn the money for this race. Fund raising is how L&LS keeps going. Donations go towards research and towards making sure that people fighting these diseases are able to live a better quality of life while they fight. Please consider even just giving up your Starbucks one day this week to DONATE that money to such a great cause. Every dollar really does make a difference."

Again R, I'm really sorry that I forgot to post this when you asked me, I had so much going on at home that it just slipped my mind. I hope you know how proud your Dad and I are of you for going for what you want and for donating your time like you are. ♥
Hope you're all well, I've got some blog reading to catch up on now!
