We Want to Thank All of our Family and Friends

A Toast to Life
40th Birthday Celebration with Friends & Family

After a great 40th birthday celebration, it is tempting to give a speech and toast to celebrate the fruitfulness and blessing that this age brings. A birthday speech is indeed one of the best ways to express just how happy and thankful you are for reaching the age of 40. More importantly than just giving a speech about the joy of reaching this milestone in life, are the people that shared this day with us who are truly the reason why our life is blessed. Without our friends and family this day would have been empty and poignant. We would like to say thanks to all of you who celebrated with us…

Jay, Donna, Delaney, Carson, Ella, A.J., Jake,
Wes, Tiffany, Patrick, Steph, Ed, Scott L.,
Mason, Scott D., Carrie, Brandon, Benny,
Wyatt, Robert, Mona, Rene, Paul, Zach,
Joe, Andi, Teresa, Randy, John, Nanette,
Josh, Paige, Heath, Kim, Kelly, Alexis, Cody,
Jerry, Jason, Brian & Bobby.

A special thanks goes out to our wonderful friend and neighbor, Lina, who brought us a beautiful cake that everyone enjoyed.

Drew Dawson Davis Fan

Hello everyone, I know I've told you all that I'm taking a break from Twitter, Facebook and blogging to put focus on finishing book #2 and #3, but I have to share with you another web gem. I stumbled upon a talented singer on YouTube one evening and his voice just blew me away. His name is Drew Dawson Davis . I was searching for music to help me feel one of the characters in my book, so I was looking for a particular song which just happened to be Garth Brook's Shameless. I know, I know, ew! It's country music. Whatever. :P Intrigued, I began checking out each of his videos and now I have listened to each of his posted videos repeatedly. They have become a musical muse for working on. If you get a chance, check him out (and no, not all of his music is country). Here is a link to Drew Dawson Davis "Shameless" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUdIbdb_hA0 Ciao for now!

Web Gems

I love to find fun websites on the internet. Here are two sites I found this week. This first one is hilarious and someone could spend hours just reading through the funny, interesting, weird, disgusting, and sometimes “down right wtf were they thinking” text. This website is Txts Frm Lst Nght (Text From Last Night). Now I know we all have sent a text to someone that once we hit the “send” button we wished there was a “retrieve” button. This website showcases text messages sent that I am sure the sender wished they would not have sent. Lucky for us, the gracious recipient of the text message thought that the world would be a better place if they shared it with everyone. Not only does it exhibit the uncomfortable display of bad spelling, compromising situations and/or embarrassing circumstances, but you the reader also get a chance to reply and grade the text message. Talk about adding insult to injury, but it’s all in fun and (I hope) no one gets hurt. If you feel venturous here is the

Short Story: Savior

Was it the blacktop road that made the night seem so dark or was it just her mood? Maybe it was the fact that she had been driving for hours and she was getting tired. Christine didn’t know which, but she did know that the further she drove away from her hometown, the darker her mood became. She didn’t want to move, but her employer hadn’t given her a choice…or maybe he actually did. The choices were to transfer or find another job, but quitting was not an option Christine could afford, so she boxed up her life and left her family and friends behind. Christine looked at the clock on her dash for the thousandth time and sighed impatiently. “Three hours to go,” she mumbled to herself. Tired of listening to the same CD for the last few hours she switched the CD player to radio, but static was all she heard coming out of the speakers. Her favorite radio station was gone. She knew it wouldn’t reach this far out. It was just another reminder of all that was familiar to her was being left
