I didn't puke!

My bachelorette party was this past weekend. Jayme and Kate came in from the west coast and Lori, Petrika, and Melissa threw me a kick-ass party! It was a great weekend - we shopped, went to World of Coke, and ate and drank lots. I laughed a lot and remember most of it. But pictorial evidence always helps:

Glad she was mine

My grandmother passed away a week ago. She was an amazing woman. Not only was she the kindest person I've ever known, she was the most magnetic - she was married 4 times and proposed to at last twice as many! One of my aunts suggested writing a letter to send with her. My letter was about how she's an inspiration to me in how to live your life. She had an amazing capacity to forgive, something I definitely need to work on. She also truly loved unconditionally and always looked on the bright side - even when she couldn't get out of bed for the cancer, she'd answer "How are you feeling?" with her standard "Terrific!" Her happiness and positivity were boundless and I'll always think of that when I think of her.
