BIRTHDAY BOY

My nephew had a birthday on Saturday. He turned the big 25! His bike number was representing well last night. He races motorcross. He asked us all to come to the race track for his birthday so we drove to Dora, Oklahoma to support him and be with him on his birthday.

His bike he won in a race this year. The number worked well for his 25th birthday

Getting geared up for his 1st race.

Don't you just love his polka dots! I asked him why he didn't get hot pink polka dots, he didn't really have an answer! It sure made it easier to pick him out from the other racers. The other guy is his friend Randy. I got mad at him in the first race because Dallas was in 1st place until Randy plowed into him and he was cut back to 4th place. His rear wheel ended up with a broken spoke. I got over it by the 2nd race, Dallas was able to cut Randy off on a turn and Dallas ended up winning 1st place for the night. YEA GO DALLAS



This is what the call a table top jump. a flat longer grade. I didn't have my Canon so these were shot with my little point and shoot.

This was on the first race when Randy was in the lead.

It was a lot of fun watching them. There were 4 wheeler races, pee wee, and then different classes for the older groups. I loved watching the little ones on these teeny tiny bikes. They were giving it all they had. Unfortunetly we got ATE up by mosquitos, they were horrible. We all put on bug spray but I think that just made them mad! We had a long ride home and didn't get home until 12:30am after the 2 hour drive up 540 watching for the deer to pop out.
We had a great time!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY DALLAS
I remember 25 years ago very clearly. It was the first time I had seen a real newborn baby right after birth. I remember telling my Momma that we should see if the doctor would put him back. In my defense I was only 17 years old and he had been in the birth canal for 4 days while my sister labored. I used to be the "COOL" Aunt but that changed as I had my own child and his wants became more outlandish than just getting highlights in his hair. We spent many a New Years Eve's together when I was single.  I taught him how to tie his shoes and blow bubbles with his gum. He will always be my boy and I will always be his "Pam". He would argue with people at 2 years old that I was "HIS PAM"!
Great memories!

More of the Reception

This was my idea too. I wanted them to saran wrap the truck ~ I told them to put cans on the back, vaseline under the handles and fix the horn so that it would honk everytime they hit the brakes but I only got the saran wrap. The rain might have had something to do with it.

They have a large family already. Sueanne has a son and Dallas has 2. What a chore they have in front of them. 2, 3 & 5 Whew! She looks as though it is not a problem.


Dallas with E and Kaylee. Ornery is a word for both but very loving kids!!!


I love this one of him and K! So cute. Might just have to blow that one up!




I thought I would put on a better photo of the Guestbook table. (except for that cup that someone left there).
Have ya'll ever dealt with anemia??? I have been feeling really sick yesterday and today. I have stomach issues and when I get up to move around I get this cold sweat and kind of shaky. It is weird and I am thinking it is either low sugar or anemia. You know trying to diagnose myself....
Blessings,
Pam

THE RECEPTION

We had a great day, despite the weather. I hosted the reception/shower for my nephew Dallas and his bride Sueanne. They eloped in January so we didn't get to do the wedding :(!

They are super happy and the new "IN LOVE" feeling was in the air today! Here are a few of the photos from the day.

I love this one with their rings, bible and her bouquet I made for the day!

This one is cute too.

She is a beautiful girl and he's not so bad either!

I picked the wrong one but I am to tired to go back and find another. Thank goodness they had a better photographer than me there.

Cutting the cake!

The cake was so yummy! Thanks to Rick's.


This was the guest book table. I decoupaged their initials hanging on the front. I also painted the "W" board for it too.

I put one of these vases on each end of the cake & punch table.

This was another arrangement I made for the tables. I loved the apples in there.

This was the gift that I made for them. A while back I showed you some photos I took for this. I love these and to order one is very expensive but I like doing them myself. More personal I think.
The happy couple is off on a short honeymoon and I hope they enjoyed their day. I sure enjoyed doing it for them.
Dallas and I have made alot of memories since he was born. I remember teaching him to tie his shoes and blow bubbles. We spent several New Years together when I was single and he was just a boy. Now he is all grown up and married. Very proud of him and love him very much.
Blessings,
Pam

LOVE IS IN THE AIR

My nephew eloped on January 30, 2009. Little stinker! In honor of their marriage I am hosting a reception for them at the end of March. The bride picked black/lime green for her colors. Today Coco and I went to Hobby Lob and these are some of things we picked up.


I am also doing the invitations and found that cute paper on the left. I love the apples in the vase and the daisy's and feathers will be used in vases for the tables. I am having a ball doing this for them. I am going to make some large squares out of the black/white fabric and lime tulle for the tables too. I need to get some canvas to make some monograms for the decor.
I hope she will love it. I have some other ideas up my sleeve so I will show those later.
Blessings,
Pam
