This month has been really exciting! It started off with our office turning 10 years old. If anyone would have told me how blessed I would be at starting an office in Azle,Texas 10 years ago, I would have thought they were crazy. I cannot express my love for this community and the people that have crossed our path over these years. I would never live anywhere else to practice. It is fantastic!!
Next, my wonderful husband threw a surprise party to end all surprise parties. While I was shoppping with my sister,Pepper, he cleared all of the furniture out of the house and brought in caterers to have a "Winey 40th birthday party". All of the guests brought one bottle of wine to have jugded by everyone else. People were walking around sampling different wines and filling out score cards. He also had a band playing from the corner of the yard while the party was going on. And,last but not least, he had the one and only IRON CHEF 2007 WINNER TIM LOVE from Lonesome Dove doing all of the cooking for me. I am sooooo spoiled! (My husband calls it "loved").
To top it all off, he swept me away to Napa Valley to spend 5 days (without our kids). We toured up and down the main street where most of the well known wineries are located. We ate at Ad Hoc, The Press, and THE FRENCH LAUNDRY. All of the restaurants there had their own gardens in the back, so all of the food tasted unbelievable. I am so gald I didn't go on a diet before we went because I gained at least 5 pounds while we were there. On my actual birthday, we got up at 5 am and went on a hot air balloon ride. Talk about amazing! There is nothing else in the world that can compare to that.
So, for now, I will have to come back down to earth and get in the swing of the new school year with my kiddos. I am excited about the fall and what 40 is going to bring. My hope is it is better organizational skills!
