It’s a Beautiful Day!
Today was great, amazing, beautiful. I had the best time. Why you ask? The picture up above is only a hint.
First off… this morning I went and picked up these chocolate strawberries sent to me as a Mother’s Day gift from My Mother-in-Law. I Have the best Mother-in-Law in the world, it’s ok to be jealous.
Then….
I did my hair….
Put on my fanciest lip gloss….
and my most expensive perfume….
picked up my friend Beth (who has amazing hair) and went to meet….
Ree! The Pioneer Woman!! I was so excited and sweating profusely (just being honest). She grabbed my hand and it was dripping with sweat. Classy, I know. That’s how I roll… full of class and overactive sweat glands. Since I can’t go visit her ranch, this was the next best thing and she did take time to talk with us for a minute when she didn’t have too. The number one reason that I follow her blog is because she is real and tonight she just proved that even more.
It was great.
Then to top off the night, Beth and I went to dinner. Just two moms, sans kids, enjoying the blessings of Texas known as Tex Mex. She is a great encouragement and friend to me.
Also I want to thank every one of you that has encouraged me this week. If you sent me an email about the introvert post, I got it and treasured them all. Or if you sent me funny emails about your crazy dentist stories when I was dealing with all that I did last week, thank you! I love you all and treasure the women in my life. I hope your Mother’s Day weekend is off to as great of a start as mine.

Oooh, total awesomeness. I missed Ree’s book signings not once, but twice!! Like by a day or some crazy thing. I was so bummed.
Of course, Ree has overactive sweat glands, so she probably never noticed your wet hand. LOL!!!
