MaryAnn's Birthday - too much fun!!!!

My dear friend MaryAnn had a birthday the end of August. We first celebrated at a lunch with one of our other friends who also just happens to be one of the sisters we visit teach....

Then this last Saturday, Mary Ann and I and our husbands went to dinner on TCU campus at the TCU Cafeteria and watched the TCU/Oregon game on the big screens they have everywhere there! We had so much fun visiting and eating really good food (those students eat really good!!!!) and visiting about everything from if BYU really should have gone independent to our children, jobs, hobbies, church callings! It was great fun! Thanks MaryAnn for having a birthday!!!!

Another one bites the dust......

My friend Becky, whom I also visit teach turned 50 and we had to celebrate at Babe's (tradition), you might remember my 50th birthday there as well as MaryAnn's my VT Partner and dear friend and the embarrassment we all had to suffer, you know what they say about PAYBACK! We had so much fun laughing and teasing her with giving her an OVER THE HILL cane people were looking at us before the waitresses came over to sing happy birthday to her and make her dance the chicken dance! good times!

the B-day girl and me!

Going to a garden party......

Today my VT partner had a luncheon for us and a couple of our Visiting Teaching ladies in her garden! It was a lot of fun! The food was awesome, the company FABULOUS, and the weather perfect!!!! We talked for so long we totally lost track of time and all had to run off at the last minute to go pick up kids from school and what not! But it was really really delightful MA, thanks so much! MA didn't have me bring any food, so I brought some really pretty pastel colored flowering plants for them to take home in keeping with our Theme! And of course i got one for our hostess with the brilliant idea as well! I really love visiting teaching! Throughout my whole adult life, visiting teaching is where I have found some of my most precious friends that last forever! Not just for a little while, but forever! For that I am extremely grateful!

Oh, and I got to hold this cute little boy all afternoon as well! BONUS!
