My New Shirt
When I found out in April that Sara Bareilles (& Sugarland, but I was WAY more excited about Sara B.) was going to be coming for a show I immediately checked with my girlfriends to see who wanted to go. We bought GA Floor tickets so we could dance all night. I could hardly wait until August!!!!
Fast forward to the end of July & me having to get rid of my ticket. BOO. I had to have a hysterectomy (there's a fun, 24 year story) & it just so happend the surgery was scheduled for 5 days before the show. I was super mega bummed not to be there. I think I might have even cried when I knew the show was starting. But my friends were so sweet & I got videos & phone call serenades throughout the show.
I. LOVE. SARA. BAREILLES. She came to Lawrence last fall & the show was AMAZEBALLS.
My friends, Andrea & Brandi, got me a surprise gift that signifies just how much I love Sara B. & why. Say "hello" to my new shirt:
Sorry, Mom, but she cusses & I like it. No. I f*cking love it.

Healing Sunday
Cleanse yourself with laughter and with tears.
Let tears take out all the agony that is hidden inside you,
And let laughter ignite your contagious joy....Don't know who said this, but it is amazing advice.

Kindergarten
Our little big girl started Kindergarten today....
The only things she has talked about since Sunday are Kindergarten & Daddy. She told me more than once that since she is 5 years old & in big kid school now she is brave & strong, "just like Daddy".
She practically pushed us out the door of her classroom this morning; she was so ready to start school! I am very excited to see how her first day of big kid school goes!

Special Day Before Kindergarten Movie Breakfast
Our big girl starts kindergarten tomorrow!!!! To celebrate I made a special breakfast this morning:
Baked French Toast Sticks!
These are super easy & FREEZABLE!!! I made a big batch, so we had some this morning & we have extra for breakfasts over the next couple of weeks. You can find the recipe here. They were a big hit with the girls; the little one called it "piztha"!
I cannot believe our big little girl is ready for kindergarten....Her first five years went by so fast! I am so excited to watch her learn & grow. But she will always, ALWAYS be my little girl....

2. "Everybody likes their own brand."
1. "You & me together, we can do anything". "Come what may, I will love you until my dying day." We've been to hell & back (a few times), but we always find our way because we're together....I love you, Christopher Neal. Happy Anniversary!!!!
