Charity's Birthday Dinner Party BONANZA!!

Saturday night I headed back to Lafayette for the Previously Planned Charity's Birthday Dinner Party Bonanza at Olive Garden! OG is a birthday tradition that I've held for the past ten years I think. yikes. ever since college I've always went to OG for my Birthday and this year was no exception! We had a fun group of people and I really appreciated them coming out to spend time with me celebrating my birthday!!

This is the reaction I get when I get out my camera.

Apes and Steven Weaven! Who btw made me a FABULOUS Chocolate Raspberry Cake. OH.MY.GOODNESS was it GOOD!!!

Stimpy and his quite delightful gf Kendra! It was my first time meeting her and I can see why he loves her! They were so cute together!

The Bergs!! Jessica and her hubs Mikel. I just LOVE those two!! And I love that he wore a tie to my dinner! That made me smile. You can count on a Baptist to show up in a tie for a dress up event, can I get an AMEN??!!!

Me and Bergs, take one!! Pictures should really not be taken when I'm cracking up laughing because slightly resemble a disturbed looking hyena. With chipmunk cheeks. Not so cute people, not so cute.

Take two at me looking less like a disturbed hyena and Bergs doing her best Austin Powers impression. I love my friends. I really do!!

It took four pictures to get this one with me and Dr Avery. Sadly this is the best we got. *smh*

Me with my cute sparkly zebra present that Bergs made me! She's so crafty!

And she knows me oh so well!! A very festive pink flower necklace to wear on Pink Weds! YAYS! Thanks Bergs!!

I had so much fun with my friends, despite our hour wait for a table! Olive Garden I'll see you again next birthday! When I turn 29 for the SECOND time! ;)

Book Review: The moments you were mine by LJ Evans

Once again I was lucky enough to be on the ARC team for another book by LJ Evans. Since I have discovered LJ she has become one of my top 5 must read authors. LJ’s books are like Christmas Day. Or your birthday if you’re like me and obnoxiously celebrate both. :) You count down the days until it happens with great expectation and excitement and then it gets there and you almost don’t want it to be there because then it will be over and you have to wait another 364 days for the magic to come by again. Thankfully for all of us LJ writes more than one book a year so we are all #blessed in that aspect. I’m always super excited to get and read her books, but it’s a mixed feeling of not wanting to start reading it because then it will be over, and I can’t wait to read it and see what happens. Oh the struggle of being a book lover! I had some FEELINGS over Parker and Fallon. I felt like they were real people and at several points I wished they were real people so I could take t...

This week was rather lackluster, because I came down with a sickness on Monday and was down for the count Monday and Tuesday. I was super annoyed, because I had not taken a sick day since May and I was really trying to make it to 2019 without that happening! Boo! My new coffee maker came in the mail, and it is so cute! It's like a miniature coffee maker, only makes 4 cups. It's adorable. My nephew's 4'th Birthday present came as well. And I was a little concerned at the size of the box. Thankfully it wasn't as large as it appeared, but still a decent size! Wednesday I rejoined life after being sick and ran out to get some free stix from Hotbox pizza and look what I saw!!!! A New DD is coming much closer to my house!! OH I was SO EXCITED!!!!!! That afternoon I was working on getting all of my Christmas tubs brought inside from the shed, so I could decorate on the weekend. Then I had some cancellations and decided to start. I got the Piano room ...

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

It's me, Charity
