"THIS IS IT"

For the Michael Jackson movie Premier "This is it," the girls are dancing to a Thriller mix before each show at our local Syracuse Theater! Tonight was the first show, and they did a great job~ it was fun. They all looked great, creepy, but great!

Today was also my birthday. Spent the morning at the Temple with some special friends, went to lunch with my momma, then spent the evening with my family. Friends and family make days like this absolutely amazing. It is so wonderful to feel loved. What a blessing :)

Cafe Burke

A month ago~ for Kena's birthday~ we had a girls lunch~ but didn't invite the funnest girl of all! SARAH!

So cute Sarah invited us all to lunch at her house today. ( well really she invited the girls, and then asked me to shuttle them over! It was the least I could do) haha :) She fixed A yummy Cafe Rio style lunch, but even better, and then topped off with cookies to satisfy our sweet tooth! Thank you Sarah~ it was delish and a a fun break from the day!

Star Struck

Shayla was invited to go to the Miley Cyrus concert by her good friend Kenlee. They already had tickets but then they won a contest to go to the sound check before the concert and meet her! Miley was sick, but was still very nice and cute with the girls. Shayla had a fun time. How could you not with this cute bunch of girls!

Friends are one of our greatest blessing in this life! Grateful to have such amazing friends:)

A Night of "Firsts"

Homecoming 2009 brought Mckena's first:

*day date - they went to the zoo

*group date - group of 20!

*boutonniere pin on - no injuries

*corsage - it was beautiful

*school dance

*time with an extended curfew

But not the first time for:

*making mom and dad beam with pride

*causing us to shed a tear wondering where the time has gone

*Mckena excited to celebrate life!

The Answer is..

Mckena decorated Ramon's car today while he was at lunch with his family. She decked it out with everything pink. From crepe paper, balloons, bows, flowers, curling ribbon, to rose petals. Then wrote "I am tickled pink to go with you" on the front windshield, and "yes" on the back!
