My Birthday Weekend

What a fabulous "Birthday Weekend" I had!!  I woke up to a shower of gifts and hugs and cuddles from my sweet loves.  David took Kendall and Adrien up to Snow Bowl.  I went and treated myself to a Manicure/Pedicure then picked Samone up from school and she and I met the others up at Snow Bowl.  We sat and enjoyed the GORGEOUS weather outside and ate some lunch before hitting the slopes!!!  It was an amazing day of skiing.  Then we went straight from there to Sakura for dinner!!!  It was a great treat and we got a fun and entertaining chef!!  Then home to relax on the couch with some wine and American Idol.

In the morning, we were off to Phoenix for the Blackhawks Invitational Soccer Tournament!!!  Samone is just an amazing soccer player and I love watching her play!!  They won their first game!!  We checked in to our hotel - Mark's timeshare condo!! It is a great place to stay!!  Then back to the fields for game two!!  They won again!!  Woo Hoo!! We stopped at a Sport's Grill for dinner then headed back to the condo.  We all went and sat in the hot tub for a bit before bed!!

The game the next morning, we won again!!  So we had to stay in Phoenix a bit longer!!!  So we grabbed some sandwiches and hung out at the fields and watched some other soccer games and hung out with some of the team.

So, the championship game!!!!  They WON!!!  WOW!!!  The first place champions for the first time since they were U9's playing in Las Vegas!!!!  It was a great way to wrap up the weekend!!  It really was a fabulous weekend!!!

Games

ADRIEN loves playing games!!  He will get the game out, get it all set up, get everyone's places all set up and then start begging us to play!! It is just too cute and, of course, we have to play!!  He just enjoys it so much!!!
Right now we are playing Apples to Apples.... me and the kids!!  I love that we can all play and everyone can read the cards and play by themselves without any help!!!  These are the special times!!!!!
