Laurie's Life

 When I was teaching school, I ate French Toast Crunch from the cafeteria every morning.  After Emily was born, I stayed at home.  When she was a few weeks old, I began trying to find the cereal in our local grocery stores.  GONE!  Of course, since I loved it SO MUCH they stopped making it!  I saw of some morning show a few weeks ago that French Toast Crunch was coming back.  The company had gotten so many letters requesting they bring it back.  THEY DID!  I bought some this week and I have enjoyed it so much!  But,  my cereal returned but my beloved oyster stew is gone!  I am pretty sure I am the only person who ever bought it.  My sweet girls on Easter!  Sarah Kate got saved a while back, but Easter Sunday she went down front to profess her faith and she will be baptized soon.  We are so happy for her!

I have really missed blogging!  We have had computer troubles that have kept me away from my blog!  I have a ton of pictures that I could post, but I won't. Today is my 43rd Birthday!  It has been a WONDERFUL DAY!!!!!  I have had lots of fun, encouragement some good ole relaxation!  (Along with Chili's chips and salsa!  Enough for 6 grown men!) My sweet girls worked really hard last night in their fairy costumes to create a Birthday party for me.  They spent about an hour and half getting it all set up and decorated.  They did it upstairs and told me could NOT go up there today.  I honored their wishes.  Tonight, they called me up there and had it all decorated.  They had a cake and games.  It was so cute and they were so proud and excited!!!!!!!  They have been SOOOOOO excited about my birthday for the past several weeks.  They had a crown for me! They had homemade cards, prizes, favors, gifts and a treasure box!  We played Bingo!  It was all so cute!
