I told you I would forget

Wait a minute! I have a blog?

I knew that I would forget all about it. Sorry! So, what has happened throughout this past month? LOTS!

The New Kids concert in Greenville, SC was amazing. Talk about having the luck of the Irish! This will be the St. Patrick's Day I will remember for a lifetime. I got to hang out with my bishes, which was a blast. I am always so nervous about stepping out of bounds and not following rules. These girls are slowly, but surely, teaching me to push my limits a bit. Some really great things might happen as a result. So, back to the New Kids, Amber and I went and did the whole ILAA thing. We had a wonderful group! We were group "S", also known as the Sexify My Love group. Jordan and Joey could not have been any cuter or sweeter. We had a blast. It wouldn't be a New Kids party without Amber screaming, "I LOVE DONNIE WAHLBERG" at some point, while with the guys. This time she chose to do it when they were taking the picture. This confused Jordan, as she had already professed her love to him. Poor Jordy. Oh, and I should mention that you know I couldn't leave the guys until I had been all wrapped up in Jonathan's arms. He has amazing hugs! After the meet and greet, we received our tickets. At first glance, we were all excited because we thought we had gotten second row center. After a second glance at our tickets, we discovered we were FRONT ROW CENTER!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!! Yes, I did wonder if I would be able to keep it together and enjoy the show. Let me tell you, it was tough. All that hotness right up in your face can be dangerous. The show was completely amazing. Being in front row center was a dream come true. What an amazing blessing!

My nephew, Evan, turned 16 on April 1st. I think that officially makes me an old fart. I swear, I was just holding him in my arms yesterday. Now he towers over me and looks like the hulk (well, except for the green). I love him and I am very proud of him. I am so proud of all my nieces and nephews, although at times I wish they made better choices. No matter what though, I love them unconditionally and would be there for any of them in a heartbeat. Today is my older sister's birthday. We had a pretty rough start when I was younger, but now that we have both gotten older, she really is like a best friend. I love her so much. She is an amazing mother, sister, teacher, and soon to be wife (she is getting married on June 20th). I am very blessed.

My 32nd birthday is quickly approaching also on April 20th. I am thankful to be celebrating another year of life. This past year has been amazing. It is insane to think that I almost wasn't here to experience all of the wonderful things this past year has brought forth. I can't wait to see what blessings this year has in store for me. God is good...ALWAYS!
