Hello to all my friends…I have missed you all! Here’s an update, I gotten my laptop to work intermittently. It still freezes and crashes more times then not, but I am at least able to log-in to the blog, which I have not been able to do for days.

My focus is getting this faxed asap…I am working on getting the Tops ad done tonight hopefully, then I will start to plow through the emails I have. Just checked my mailbox and wanted to cry… 516 emails… NO worries though I will get through them and get you all updated as soon as I can! Thanks for hanging in there with me.. you all are the BEST!

Hi Everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend. Yesterday I took the day off from literally everything. I figured since it was my actual birthday my husband could spend just one day taking care of everything. Well I’m not sure that was the smartest decision. He literally asks me if he should go to the store to get me a gift (ummm why would I have to tell him that), then he let the kids rule over the living room and dining room knowing we have guests coming over tonight, so I have to spend a part of the day cleaning today. It would have just made my day if he would have just had the kids make me something, and yet there was nothing.

Enough of that complaining, I know, but I’m wondering how many of us women go through the same ordeal when all we are asking for is One Day?

To his credit he did cook all the meals yesterday, so that was helpful and I had a great time on Sat/Sun with my friends and the Nervous Nelly band, so thanks to them! Now I have lots of posts to catch up on

Ok, so I want to first let everyone know, my posts will not come until later today! Why? Well today is a big day for us.

This morning, I couldn’t be a prouder mom when both girls played an awesome Ball game. Best game they have ever had, I was definitely beaming.

On top of that, today at the Taste of Buffalo we will be there in full force as my husband and his band, Nervous Nelly play at the TOB at 5:00 pm (Modern Country)! We are so excited and I am so proud of him and all our NN friends! They have worked hard and it’s a great honor for us to play at one the largest festivals during peak hours! {Thanks to Chris and Maureen for making it happen}

Are there any TFF readers heading down today? If so, I would love to possibly meet any and all of you. My husband is the guitarist in the band, along with two of the best sister lead singers {also TFF readers }, a base player, and drummer. We are already getting everything ready to head down early and packing up the kiddos book bags with some of my “Free Sample” snacks I have accumulated

Happy Saturday to everyone, It’s an awesome day in Buffalo!

A Dad is a person
who is loving and kind,
And often he knows
what you have on your mind.
He’s someone who listens,
suggests, and defends.
A dad can be one
of your very best friends!
He’s proud of your triumphs,
but when things go wrong,
A dad can be patient
and helpful and strong
In all that you do,
a dad’s love plays a part.
There’s always a place for him
deep in your heart.
And each year that passes,
you’re even more glad,
More grateful and proud
just to call him your dad!
Thank you, Dad…
for listening and caring,
for giving and sharing,
but, especially, for just being you!
Happy Father’s Day
