We had an 80th birthday party for Grandma Dot today, she turned 80 on April 2nd. It was at her house on the lake and what a great day for a party! We had yummy sandwich stuff, snacks, cake (Martha cake-the best of any I have ever had EVER) and birthday cake ice cream (the best ice cream ever!). Everyone was there except for Shanda and Jett, who is sick with the flu :( We missed you guys and hope Jett feels better very soon! Measer and I even had a little Easter egg hunt for Gaby and then we made Cedric hide the eggs for us, she won :( But we had a great time and it was so good to enjoy the sunshine!
Don't worry, I haven't already blown my diet, but we did splurge with a small piece of cake and a little ice cream. I have already lost a little weight and was able to get into some size 12 jeans today, yipee! My goal is to be a comfortable size 10 again, that is what most of my clothes are. Not sure what that exact weight is, but I care more about just feeling good and having clothes that I can actually zip!!!!
I have done very well so far and I feel a million times better. We all have much, much more energy, I have been doing all kinds of things around the house, and just feel more like my old self again. Cedric, mom, and dad have lost weight too and feel much better. I have cut out most of my diet soft drinks, instead I drink water, crystal light, or my new favorite, Vitamin Water 10 (which is SOOOOO good). It is expensive, $1 a bottle, but I rationalize it because I am not buying wine. I was buying at least 3 bottles a week which cost more than a week supply of my vitamin water, so there! Doesn't that make sense???
Anyways, here are pictures from the birthday party...Tomorrow night we are dying eggs with mom, dad, Zach, Nicole and Jackson and then you know what we will be doing.........Watching my Tarheels and my boyfriend Tyler play for the National Championship against Michigan State!!!!!! When we played MSU in 2005, mom and I almost got into a fight with some fans at a bar in Myrtle Beach that were running their mouths, it was so funny, and of course, the Tarheels whoooped up on them. Lets hope it is a repeat tomorrow night!
Go HEELS!!!!!!! Don't worry, I will post "One Shining Moment" again either tonight or tomorrow to get everyone in the mood, it just gives me cold chills when I hear it!
