Luke Combs in Columbus

If you know me, you know I LOVE Luke Combs. 

He's on repeat all of the time. Google plays Luke Combs all of time when I'm working around the house. 

Pandora plays Luke Combs radio in the car and while I shower. 

So, when I found out he was going to be in Columbus, I got us tickets. Of course, my whole family wanted to go because they all listen to the music too! 

We stopped on the way for an amazing dinner! 

Highly recommended. 

 

Then we headed to the event. I will stay parking was an absolute nightmare. But everything went away when we got into the venue and found all of our friends! 

It was a perfect night!

The music. 

The weather. 

The friends. 

Eighth Grade Track - Addycakes

 Addycakes jumped into a new sport. Track. 

Well, it's not a great weather sport and it took me a few weeks to understand what was even happening. 

But we successfully made it through. And she liked it!

I think it's going to be something she enjoys in high school! 

Always lots of support! 

I loved hanging with Graylee each week too!

Kenny Boy's 50th!

John's BFF turned 50! 

Mango through him a SURPRISE party and we were in charge of getting him there. 

So stressful! Ha!

But we pulled it off! 

Such a fun night! Of course, I snugged on Frankie for a bit.

 

It's a BIG year for these 50 year olds.  

Our mamas must have really like the song Sara Smile...since it was a popular one in 1976! 

Our besties!

Karaoke was a big hit the whole night! 

I had ALOT of fun at Ken's party. 

Oh, Hey, Kelly Taylor

If you know me (and my sister), our obsession with Beverly Hills, 90210 borderlines on unhealthy. Ha! 

Well, Kelly Taylor from the show was played by Jennie Garth, who wrote a book and is on a tour landing her in our city! 

I instantly snagged tickets for Emily and I. 

The day came and after explaining for the 100th time we were not actually going to Beverly Hills, we headed to the event!

We all received a signed copy of the book!

She did talk quite a bit about 90210, so that was FUN!

Then we waited in line for about an hour. 

But it was worth it...

We got to meet her and get our books signed! 

Such a FUN NIGHT!

 

Ava - Student of the Month

 Ava Kate was named Student of the Month for March. 

When I read the qualifications and how she earned it, I responded to the principal and told him he spelled Addy wrong! 

Ha! I kid. 

I know she is a little mouthy with us but she exemplifies leadership, kindness and caring. 

We couldn't be prouder of her! 

Bonus that my BFF's son was also named in the same month. 

Millicent Ann

This one hurt. 

I grew up with dogs but have never had one as an adult. 

Millie was the most perfect family dog who lived with my mom but we all LOVED so much. 

She hasn't been feeling well so my mom took her to the vet. 

Unfortunately, it wasn't the news we wanted and hard decisions had to be made. 

Ava had a HUGE bond with Millie. 

But she was at work. 

I went to her work and picked her up so she could be with Millie for her last breath. 

I'm so glad I did. 

Ava took this one really hard. 

Millie passed peacefully with Ava and Jojo each holding a paw, knowing nothing more than love. 

Rest peacefully, Millicent Ann. 

We love you! 

 

Happy 15th Birthday, Addycakes!

I blinked and my girl turned 15. 

It was a pretty lowkey birthday, as next year will be a big bash for Sweet Sixteen!

We grabbed a few of her besties and headed to Addy's favorite restaurant. 

Her friends are a little pickier so they had chicken fingers. 

Back to our house for cake and ice cream with the rest of the family. 

And more hang out time with the besties.  

Happy Birthday, Sweet Girl. 

You are the most perfect 15 year old I know.
