The Hype is Fo Real

I told you I was going to check it out. Little did I know...

Monday morning saw me waking up late and missing my date with Lifetime Fitness all because I have met a new man who kept me up until two in the morning fighting evil vampires and being ridiculously romantic and heroic. Now, I'm hooked on Edward Cullen and have started New Moon already.

And, like Heather, my Twilight friends and I have debated whether or not it's weird for a 30ish year old woman to wish she were back in high school and in love with a smokin' hot vampire. Yea, we're so not weird. Totally normal.


Alas, I must go and send an e-mail to my 17 year old sister instructing her to be prepared for a Twilight viewing party on my next visit home.

Musical Debut

My nephew Caleb made his musical debut recently with a moving rendition of 'Deep and Wide' with the Sunshine Choir at Galeed Baptist. It's the link fifth from the bottom when you click here. He's the kid in the striped shirt that takes off once his group hits the stage!

Watch his mom (i.e. my sista) belt it out by clicking on the link 'Lauren Clark' second from the bottom.

Break Dancing Bear

I love to read blogs and Oh Happy Day is one of my favorites. Jordan hired a break dancer to dress up as a bear for her husband's birthday surprise. If anyone wants to hire me a break dancing bear for my birthday, please do!

Taco Mexico

I just downed my leftover fajita quesadilla from yesterday's visit to Taco Mexico. Perhaps you've seen it? It's the slim shady orange building with the homemade sign and the boarded up window on 55 headed into downtown Apex. My first visit there resulted in me ordering their specialty - tacos, of course - and finding out later that I had eaten cow tongue since the menu was in Spanish and I couldn't read it. Who was to know that lengua was not similar to legume?

Yesterday, I was convinced to give it another go and I'm glad I did! Their salsa is outstanding and the fajita quesadilla was yummy in my tummy.

So, the next time you're headed into downtown Apex, I suggest you stop in!

I'm Gonna See What All the Hype is About

I started it last night and will let you know what I think.

Walkin' on Sunshine

And, don't it feel good!?

It's supposed to be GAW-JUS this weekend and I'm ready for it. I had surgery a little over a week ago and have been MIA. I'm feelin' better and ready to sit on the porch (catch up on my blog reading) and let the sun shine in this weekend!

Ya'll have a good one!
