BIRTHDAY GIRL!

One more mention- Maggie's birthday was yesterday ~ all hail the Little Girl!

She turned 8. Now she's sporting a brand new pink collar and tag with her name on it. Mommy made her dog biscuits and we bought her a couple of new toys.

WOW! I didn't realize I hadn't posted anything for so long.

What's been going on?? Well, we went to the mountains a couple of weeks ago. One of my friends at work has a cabin on Lake Rabun that she rents out. So we went for the weekend. It was great- Marge met up with us on Saturday. The cabin is beautiful! Gavin had fun because we could take a walk everyday and there were some neighborhood dogs that joined us everytime we went.

While we were there, we visited a friend of mine who lives in Hiawassee. She and her partner live in a house on the side of a mountain that overlooks Lake Chatuge. It's quick lovely. The view is incredible.

Other than that, we're still painting (well, Jeff is) the house. He's finishing up the main bathroom today. I choose a color called "Daredevil" that's RED RED RED. I love it! Every house should have a RED room!

Last night I went out with the gang- Jimmy the Greek is in town for Greek Easter. He's such a trip! We went out to dinner and got caught up then met Mark, Rashid and Victor for coffee. Jimmy lives out in San Diego now. I miss having him around, but he's really happy, which is great, because he wasn't here.

Today its raining so I'll have to figure out some fun activities for me and the boy. We were hoping we could go to Stone Mountain, but it's not looking that way. I think some of my girlfriends from Fox 97 are coming over this afternoon. It should be nice catching up with them.

I guess I ought to go feed my child, he's tugging at my sleeve and saying "jus, jus, jus."

Two fun things happened/are going to happen this week: #1- I won an iPod Nano at a B-to-B event we worked. How fun is that? My first MP3! Yes, I know, "How Stone Age" of me. Just could never justify the expense...have kid, will travel. Anyway, I LOVE IT. And, I can already tell I'm going to spend way too much on $.99 songs.

#2- We are going to mountains tomorrow for a little family outing. Very excited, ready to get out of town and hang with the fam.

Dad came over a couple of days ago to see the little man. How cute are they?

Jeff signed up for his real estate class. It starts the first week in May. We're both ready to start our own business and make our own money. Even though the market isn't that great right now, we both think it'll turn around soon enough.

I'll post more pictures after our trip up to the hills.
