Lyndee's 40th Birthday

The time has come - I've turned 40! What a surreal moment. I don't feel 40. I hope I don't look 40. Saying that I'm 40 just sounds so strange! I remember as a kid I thought that 40 was so freakin' old - knocking on deaths door. :)

But the family and I planned a fun 80s themed birthday party. Lots of neon. Pac-man. 45s as decorations. Lots and lots of cheesy 80s music. It was a birthday I won't soon forget. Thanks to my wonderful family and friends who came to help me celebrate my big day. Love you all!

Back to School - 2010

OK, so I know I'm a bit late on this one! I've got to figure out this whole blog thing!


Oh how time flies!!! Mack goes into his final year in elementary school. He's excited for middle school next year and I'm completely terrified! This year he is in the 4th/5th Grade combo class. I am told this is a huge compliment to the student who get chosen for this class. They have to be very independent workers. And I'm told that the teacher, Ms. Kremer, will have him completely ready for middle school.

Awww, my boy Coop! We are very excited that he got into Mrs. Grispo's class this year. Both boys had her for kindergarten and Mack had her for 3rd. So we crossed our fingers that we got her again - and YAY we did!!! :) I'm hoping that since we have a teacher that Cooper loves, we won't have homework battles. So far so good - except not wanting to read. UGH!

My toughest day! Sending my baby girl off to school. I can't believe she's getting so big. She's so ready for school. I mean, she's reading already - smart girl. I stopped at a stop light and I hear, "stop here on red." I totally freaked out. I couldn't believe it. I'm so happy that she'll get to play with kids her own age. She's so used to playing with the 8 & 10 year old boys in the neighborhood. :)

Here's to a fun school year!!!
