Miss Preteen turns 11 tomorrow. She's already 5'4" and stealing clothes out of my closet.  She's so tall and wise, I forget she isn't 14 or 15 sometimes... only 10... for another 24 hours anyhow. My baby girl.  Last week we got rid of the swing set in our backyard and so that was a pretty emotional reminder that my kids are growing and there aren't any more little ones coming up to take their place on the slide.  It's a blessing to see them growing into these great human beings and a curse to see this time slip by so quickly.  Any of you out there relating to this?

My birthday in Sunday.  It will get swallowed up in the celebration my daughter is having, but it's okay.  I count the 20 kids that are coming over as my friends too.  And how many people my age get to say they had a 20 foot water slide at their party!  I bought myself an apple pie to have after her party is over.  Yummmmm!

We went shopping for some decorations yesterday and came home with this little number...

And yes, those are awesome paste-on mustaches we got for the gift bags you see in the background!  We know how to make a party happen!

Hope your weekend is as full of love, laughter, family and paste-on mustaches as mine will be!
