Last Sunday it was 70 degrees, monday barely 40 - wednesday, again 70's and then yesterday (thurs) SNOW...well in Plano/Frisco here in Rockwall we just had VERY cold rain and wind!! it did snow very late...or well VERY early this am - mckinlee still had school, I am very stuff but since this is one of tanners first snows, we went out for a bit...made a snow man off of my car!! He was so excited to throw it and watch it explode!! He kept telling me it was Christmas!! HAHA -

I forgot how much I LOVE Matchbox 20

First things first, my baby had her BDay last week - she turned 7 on tues...why is it every year that "number" just seems so big!! I can't believe it! We had a small little PD on her actual bday and she LOVED it...then on Sat we had some family over and had a small party after mckinlee sold her first Girl Scout Cookie Booth - which they sold 71 boxes ... BUT *I* bought 14 of those ***BAG*** so you need some let me know I have extras! :)


so the first of last week my GS Leader, Paige, called me!! she had told me about her tickets to Matchbox 20 and I was SO jealous, i don't get much of MY radio time or i don't think to grab MY cd's - but I do love MB20 - so imagine my surprise when she calls to say her hubby has to work and that if I wanna I can go....**BOUNCING with excitment I was** so Sunday i got up, packed my bag and she picked me up at noon and off to Oklahoma City we went...Rob was a waiting for us ;) We got there about 3ish changed in our awesome hotel room, and then went to Toby keith's bar and grill

**** funny story we walked past TK B&G in Las Vegas a few years ago, then I caught a TK documentary, and he talked about his restuarant and how the chefs were not happy that he had a fried bolonga sandwich...and turns out it is a top seller...so I *had* to have one****

I was excited to go and OF course I DID have my sandwich...it was good, YK it was a Bolonga sandwich.... we went back to the hotel to drop off the car and walk to the Ford Center (it was about 3 blocks away) well while there we heard there were Tornados and such...and lots of rain...but the show went ON!! and it ROCKED, I truly forgot how much I adore them and the music!! and double BONUS, Alanis Morissette opened...LOVE her!! and she even did Fergies Humps - i had seen it on you tube...rocks LOL...MB20 sang all the best, some new and just plain Rocked!!! we were 7th row on the left...it was great...lets see...some pics...


after the show the temp had dropped 20 or more degrees and it was RAINING...luckily we crossed the street and could catch a skywalk almost the full distance to the hotel! and the next morning, it was SNOWING!!! when we got there the temp was 68 degrees...Hello - I guess texas isn't the ONLY weird weather state! We stopped at Winstar on the way home, blew 20 bucks playing wheel of furtune, I got to spin twice, but nothing big :( I was hoping for maybe a hundred maybe hehe but no, they took my $$$ of course!!


got back in just enough time to get the Tanner from Moms and get home to get McKinlee off the bus! we took the night off since we have been soooooo busy and it was sooooo cold, but we are back in the groove today! go go go... I think that is my new stuff for today!! hope everyone in Blog land is happy and healthy!!
