I have really slacked this week on my blog TISK TISK :P

But seriously this week has been very hard on our little community. My youngest daughter Nicole lost a friend this week and I have never felt pain as a mother like I do for my daughter. It is SO hard to see her in such agony and confusion over loosing a friend :(

Katie was the little girl’s name she was 13 years old. Katie and her father Andy where killed in a collision with a train. My heart hurts for Katie’s Mom and her 2 younger sisters, my prayers are with you all. If you want to show support please join this Facebook group Railroad Crossing Signals Should Be Mandatory

Tomorrow is the hubby’s birthday :) going to make him a nice supper and spoil him. Then Valentines Day <3 we are “kicking” the girls out for the night so we can have some romantic time together…we are going to order in Chinese food and he even said he would watch a girlie movie with me :D I am thinking he needs to be Notebooked ;) And then Monday is Family Day and we all have it off, so we are going to have a game & movie day :)

SOMEHOW – I don’t know how with the birthday party (cake and candy :) and stress this week I still managed to loose weight (5 lbs this week YAY) So in one month I have lost 26 pounds :) :) :) I hope this weekend (another bday and valentines day) will be nice to me too LOL
