I am still behind

I am still trying to play catch-up. There just has been so much going on. For one it was my birthday on the 14th, and what a wonderful day it was. My youngest woke me up with breakfeast and a present. She made scrambled eggs with ham, cheese and tomato. Yum it really was mmm, mmm, good. She was so excited because she bought me a new digital camera and she couldn't wait to give it to me. She bought me a cannon powershot, 9 mega pixels and a 10x optical zoom. All I could say was wow, I think it was too much for her to give me as she is only 16 and works part time. Then on top of that my oldest daughter came down from upstate and I had all my children together. We all went out to dinner and had a wonderful time. Then on the 24th my youngest turned 17. She had her road test on her birthday and passed. I think I was more nervous then she was. I just was afraid that she wouldn't pass on her birthday and then she would be so upset. But I worried for nothing as she passed with flying colors. It was a really special birthday for her as besides passing her road test, my son, gave her a 96 mercury sable. It has low milage and my son took all the dents out, cleaned it up and had it painted. It looks like a brand new car. I can tell you, she is in 7th heaven. In between our birthdays we also celebrated my best friends birthday, she is a year older than me. The three birthday girls went out to dinner last Sunday as we usually do each year and as usual we had a good time. There is alot more happening, and to tell the truth, I can't believe that September is almost over. I also have to tell you that I am so excited! My Sister will be coming to visit in just 5 more days, I can't wait. She told me during the summer that she might come but then she said she wasn't. I was disappointed but I know that it really is a big trip. But then a couple of weeks ago she told me she was going to come. So since she has told me, I have been counting the days. It's not that we do anything real exciting but just to have her here is a real treat. I just wish she lived closer and we could visit together more often. Ok, so I have 2 more layouts to share. The kit I used is the SAS September 2008 'Halloween' Monthly Mega Kit by the very talented SAS designers.
