Happy Birthday USMC

We celebrated the Marine Corps Birthday at the USMC ball Friday. We had a blast, dining and dancing until 2:00. Unfortunately we had to be up and out the door by 6:00 the next morning for a gymnastics meet! Gary blew his diet a little with all the beer, but he's still down over 20 pounds. I didn't drink, so I got to do the early morning drive. Cammi did pretty well - 2nd all around and 1st on the beam. That was her last level 6 competition and she will now compete as a level 7 beginning in January (there are only 10 levels of gymnastics!!) After getting home from the meet, we had a retirement party to attend for one of Gary's former crew chiefs. OMG!!! I was so tired. Luckily we wrapped last night up pretty early because I was literally operating on 3 hours sleep all day. Hope you all had a great weekend!

Hugs,
Cara

Where do I start????

Okay, I know I always go a long time between posts then post excuses for why I've been absent. But seriously, there has been SO much going on here. My daughter dumped her loser boyfriend and moved back home for a few months, but is expecting a baby in December.

One other thing I've been really busy with is ads for NS. I've done a print ad and a commercial now. I've tried to post pictures of both, but I'm having trouble with logging into hello. What a blast!!! I love all the NS people and the people I met while doing the shoots. I'm now going to head over to all of your blogs and check in with each of you!

Hugs,
