colleen’s birthday

August 6, 2008 By Kelle

reason 946 moving to florida was the best thing i ever did: my girls

a very overdue girl’s night out last night in honor of our adored friend colleen’s birthday (colleen, who is, by the way…beautiful, kind, sincere, a five star mommy, wife, friend…not to mention, the best booty-shakin’ dancer this side of the mason dixon line. you should see her *elevator* move. rock solid, my friends.)

*my girls* fill me up in so many ways and have each, in their own way, changed my life for the better.

cheers to an almost invisible line between ‘friends’ and ‘family’…cheers to having so much fun at our table, everyone in the restaurant only wishes they could sit with us…cheers to finding the truest, kindest and most loving friends among the *basement girls* of life…cheers to having *sisters* that push me to be the best me i can be…and cheers to colleen! happy birthday, pretty girl!

last night was so much fun, and i needed it like a drink in the desert…. until next time!

…enjoying the girly things. ~k

p.s. i apologize for that last pic…my teeth look like a clydesdale’s. *neigh*

    awe. Such gorgeous pals you have. Geez.

    Catching up on your blog with my m]nearly gone glass of wine. It is a good combo…

    She’ll walk. Ever met an adult who is still crawling?

    Those eyelashes I swear.

    You are so lucky to have that sunset in your backyard and I love that you know that. Amazing.

    Your bedroom is like something out of a sexy novel. My room is the first thing that gets neglected…and I always bitch about how much I want to change it. Um, yes. You just inspired me to do it. How do you not have 27 children with a bed like that?! heh.

    The bangs are cuuuuutttte.

    Good to catch up with you. Kiss Lainey.

    LOVE the words in this post…so true. so lucky to have Sister Friends the way we do!!!

    Happy Bday Colleen-sorry i missed this giggle fest…did i just use the word giggle on Kelle’s blog???? oops:)

    PS Peyton was looking at the pics as i scrolled down and she made me STOP at the picture of K, K , and Jenn. She said, “Do I know these gils mama?” Before could answer, she said, “Yes, I do!” I said, “Do you remember their names?” She said, “Yes. (pointed to your hair, Kelle) ohhhh, her hair is soooooo beautiful!!!!”

    Bless her little heart!

    PSS I like all your hair:):)
