SO today was my birthday party...and yes, I did a Dr. Seuss theme! :) Since Dr. Seuss is red, white and blue and my birthday is on July 4th. Everyone's first response was "Dr. Seuss?! You are supposed to be 18!" Hahahaha! What can I say?! I love being different...it just feels so right! Hehehe! It was soooo awesome! I had a blast today and yesterday when I had a pre-party party and we did the decorating and all that jazz! :) So, here are some pictures. Ernjoy! :)

NOT ALLOWED......AT ALL!!!!!

:) Soooo, I forgot to blog about my Dear Daddy on Father's Day. How could I?! I don't know! Actually I do. So either I just lied or I made yet another mistake. How could I?! I don't know! ACTUALLY........well you get the point. I HOPE! I REALLY don't want to have to go through that again! So terrible! LOL! Wow! I wow myself sometimes....that's the reason for the 'wow'. Hahahahaha!

Okay...whatever! I think for Father's Day the lyrics to "Butterfly Fly Away" By Miley Cyrus puts everything into perspective.

"You tucked me in, turned out the light

Kept me safe and sound at night

Little girls depend on things like that

Brushed my teeth and combed my hair

Had to drive me everywhere

You were always there when I looked back

You had to do it all alone

Make a living, make a home

Must have been as hard as it could be

And when I couldn't sleep at night

Scared things wouldn't turn out right

You would hold my hand and sing to me

Caterpillar in the tree

How you wonder who you'll be

Can't go far but you can always dream

Wish you may and wish you might

Don't you worry, hold on tight

I promise you there will come a day

Butterfly fly away

Butterfly fly away, butterfly fly away

Flap your wings now you can't stay

Take those dreams and make them all come true

Butterfly fly away, butterfly fly away

We've been waiting for this day

All along and knowing just what to do

Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly, butterfly fly away"

Some girls grow up without a daddy there to love and protect them, and to push them towards their dreams, but yet correct them when they are wrong. A father's love is unconditional. I have some major lazy days when I don't want to get up and so does my dad...the only difference is I usually give in and dilly dally around for another hour and my dad makes himself get up so he can give me and my family what we want and need to survive. Everyday he sets an example for me and my family...and Dad I want you to know when I find a man (if I ever do :) I'll make sure he is a MAN and he will fight for his family and work for his family the way you do. My dad has taught me that everything doesn't come easy...you have to fight for it. Thanks Dad for always believing in me and helping me find my purpose in life. Thanks for always encouraging me to follow my dreams wherever it leads me and thanks for being brutally honest with me...even though you embarrassed me a few...er...bunch of times! Thanks for eating my exotic meals and for finding what was good about them when even I knew that they were disgusting (I have had some crazy experiences in the kitchen, folks!). Thanks for eating my BIG chicken wings and for eating my "sloppy dogs" :) And a very BIG Thanks for teaching me how to drive and letting me drive LONG distances while mom was praying through in the seat behind me :) and thanks for not having a heart attack when I rolled out into the street with a boatload of traffic coming straight for me...we could have dies, ya know?! :) You have and mom have been my cheerleaders through thick and thin (LITERALLY! :) and for that I owe you everything! :) I hope you had a VERY Happy Father's Day! All my love, Me :)

P.s. We need to get a recent picture to put on here :) Peace, Love & European Chocolate! (that stuff is to DIE for!) :) P.s.s. Stay tuned for all the exclusives of "the BIG number ONE EIGHT birthday celebration....KID STYLE" :) :) :) :) :)

It's Elmo!!!

Hiya! Here are a few pictures I had taken for my Birthday. More to come!!! :) :) Hope everyone has a good day!!!! Peace, Love & ICE CREAM!!!!!!!!!

Stitched Together :)

I think God brings people into your life for a reason and most of the time we don't realize it. God brought this dear woman, Maleah, into my life a few years ago and it wasn't until recently I realized how much she has helped me. My confidence in myself and my talents have grown mostly because of this woman. She believes in me...and not just me, she also believes in others. She always tells me "You can do anything, just follow your dreams". And I have really taken that for granted. I thought people just said things like that to make someone feel better (most people do) but she really means it! One time I had made something, and I have this habit of pointing out my mistakes to others (and I think it's because I am afraid of what others might say if they seen the mistake and realized I messed up) and so I was showing her something I had made and getting her opinion (she is a professional seamstress) and asking her if she had any tips on how I could make it better, and then I pointed out my mistake and she kinda got on to me :) She said, "Mess-up's can look pretty and sometimes it gives whatever you are making a certain character." And that has stuck with me. I have always felt as if what I made wasn't perfect enough because every once in awhile you could see a thread that wasn't supposed to be seen or a petal was out of place, but she has helped me see that my best might not always be perfect but at least I tried. :) I would not be where I am today if it wasn't for this dear lady! I Love you so much, Sis. Maleah and anywhere I go in life I'll be sure to remember that you are the one that helped me get there and succeed! :) :) :) Peace, Love & Giant CHEESE balls!
