Eight

On to #8 in my elaboration of the "comeback post."

Matt's 25th birthday... having a few connections in the travel world, he was able to get us a steal at the Graves 601... it's a step up from the usual Holiday Inn and was right across from the new Twin's stadium. Everyone on the street was clearly headed to the Twins game, everyone but us! We had our own game to tend to....

Lucas was my partner in crime and we had one mission helping Matt celebrate 1/4 century of life. I went to my first drag show, Janna came to join in, had some amazing food- prime rib sliders... to die for! Loring Kitchen mmm, shots shots shots, danced on stage the Gay 90s, countless other bars, and finally a late night Jimmy Johns run! Yes it was fun! Here's the only pic of Matt, LC, and I... kind of sums it all up :)

Nine

Continuing my elaboration from this post.

I was all smiles in April when Taylor called to say she wanted me to help her prom dress shop. Of course, she was hoping to come to Duluth and hit up a few stores- but being me, I decided that wasn't good enough and planned a trip for us to the cities. After scouring MOA, all 3 of us cramming in fitting rooms (My mom, Tay, and I), and wrestling a few HS girls to get Taylor her dress (think the episode of Friends where Monica is wedding dress shopping)... we had the winner! A few weeks later I was in the Bay for the big event! And I must say she looked fabulous :) Such a pretty girl and so grown up...

Ten

I know in my last post I said I'd elaborate upon request, but I think all of my Top Ten over the fast few months need some explaining... starting with #10.

Kristina is a bestie of mine, met her at maurices and instantly because great friends! Towards the end of her pregnancy, it appeared she would have her baby girl before her due date... this made me happy (and her ankles were relieved too) since I was going to New York on her due date, but little Layla didn't care and  waited to make her appearance until I was far out of town... and this is the picture I received... melts my heart! Little ladybug, it's been fun to go over to K's house, watch movies, and hold her :)
