Thoughtless Thursday: Happy Birfday Twinkies!

Good morning loves!  Can you hear that?  It's the sound of Friday knocking at your door.  And I think it's time we answer it, don't you?  I for one am excited about the weekend.  We have some fun things planned this weekend, but also some sad things.  One of my best and closest friends, Ginny (Gin) is moving to TAIWAN with her husband!  They are going to live there for a year and travel around Asia while living there and then after a year take 6 months to a year to travel EVERYWHERE.  And by everywhere I MEAN everywhere.  They've talked about going all over Europe, Africa, Australia and everyone else you could possibly think of.  I think they are going to have an amazing time and grow IMMENSELY as a couple, but that doesn't mean I'm not going to miss her.  She's considering starting a blog and I've told her she absolutely MUST!  Who wouldn't want to live vicariously though them!!?!?  I know I do!!!  So, in honor of her move, her parents have planned a going away party this weekend.  Now let's just see if I take any pictures.  I've so fallen off the wagon on that one, but I'm going to do my darnedest to remember this time!!!

Friday a-knockin' also means something else.  It's time for ...

And today's edition is going to be about the no longer twin-year-olds. I called them this last year when they turned 10, but alas, they are now 11 and I can't think of anything clever or witty to do with that. SO, I'm just going to call them the twinkies again. For those of you that are new readers, my mom had twins (boy/girl) when I was 18. She came to my high school graduation, 8 months pregnant, at Texas Stadium, in JUNE. For those of you that live in Texas you know what that means. Friggin' HOT is what it means. Their actual birfday was yesterday, but I wanted to post about it on Thoughtless Thursday so I could picture flood for their "birfday tribute". So happy birthday my little monkeys. It feels like only yesterday you were 2 years old (and I officially feel 60 years old for saying that) Your big sissy loves you!!!

And last but not least, I received 2 more awards from 2 more of my loverlies!!! I got the following award from the ever so darling Erin ...

Thank you my dear, you are TOO kind! And the rules say I have to give it to 10 more bloggers. Well y'all know that I can't choose just 10, SO I nominate you ALL!

The second award I was given by the adorable Lindsay ...

Thanks chickadee! And the rules for this award are to list 7 things about yourself and pass it on to 7 more bloggers. Y'all know the drill, I'm passing it on you your ALL because I think each and every one of you deserves it and I'm not sure I can think of 7 things about myself after last week's post of "all about Katie's" so I'm going to let you link back up to that post to read a few things about little ol' me.


And that's it for this TT! For those of you that are new readers, the rules of Thoughtless Thursday are this. There are none! Basically you choose pictures from what-so-ever you want when-so-ever you want and post them. Doesn't matter how random or irrelevant they are. You can 'splain or not 'splain, that part's up to you! Then come back here and link up! I can't wait to see what y'all picked!!! Happy almost Friday loves!!!
