Life has been a roller coaster ride of yummy goodness since
Christmas. Family, fun, work and so much
more have occupied our every waking moment at the Castle. And you know I like to do everything in grand
Princess Style.
My Diva celebrated her 10th birthday in her usual
diva style. Family party on the day of
her birthday included the grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins and even a
friend or two. The family party always
includes all requests for dinner; sometimes it’s reservations (personally my favorite)
and others it happens to be your favorite meal.
This year the Diva wanted a Mexican party. She wanted tacos plus all the fixins. And what would a birthday party be without a
cake?? Lately the Diva is slightly
obsessed with Pinterest and she found an amazing Oreo Pudding cake. Believe me there was not one thing low fat
about this cake. It was so good, though!

We moved to the weekend and on to her friend sleepover
party. The Diva along with her 3 besties
spent the night. The girls are so funny,
I love them so much. How we went from
being little girls playing with stickers, coloring books and Barbie’s; to make
up, new hairstyles and boys in such a short time is still a mystery to me. They want to be grown up so badly, although I
continue to tell them there is not any hurry. OH... don't call the cops that's Sparkling Grape juice in their wine glasses.

Birthday weekend came and went and I blinked and it was time
for MLK weekend. That might not mean
anything to you other than a day off, but to us here at the beach it means
30ASongwriters Festival. Cool nights and
HOT music direct from those who penned it.
It’s one of my favorite holiday weekends. True, it means a heck of a lot of work, but I
have to admit it’s a heck of a lot of fun.
Here’s a few photos of the songwriters and artists I was lucky enough to
meet.

I think my favorite was
Kevin Rowe, there is just something about that British accent. Makes me think Prince William and Prince
Harry and what princess doesn’t have a secret crush on those two?

Kevin Rowe and my favorites chickies from the office. Heart you Jami and Elisa!

My Kevin, however really enjoyed himself and was the
recipient of a serenade from Larkin Poe.
Here’s the picture to prove it.

The Bangles were hailed as the big draw and yes they were
good, but the smaller venues interacting with the artists were so much more
fun!
 |
| Yep, that is the Bangles behind me. |
And I will close out with one last picture of my handsome Kevin and me hanging out and having a fabulous time.
