Your Fav of 2008

I've been reading on a lot of blogs lately about looking back at 2008. What had gone on in their lives and so forth. So I want to change it up a little. Looking back on all of YOUR posts for 2008, which one is Your favorite post of YOUR blog? I've seen some awesome stuff and I'm just nosey to see your own favorite.

Since I'm bringing up the subject I'll start. My favorite one I posted was the idea Cielo gave me from The House in the Roses. It was about my fairy Godmother and the dresses I could wear. I just had a great time finding the color and style of all the dresses. I had a great time that night thanks to Cielo. With My Fairy Godmother's Help

Then there is a tie with this Leonard & Brenda. The miracles of life and I don't need to say anymore.

So now you know mine. I'm curious about your own favorite post of 2008. Please share it with me or let me know if you've done your own post about your own post too!!

Happy Birthday America!!

Happy 4th of July Everyone!! The hubby and I made a quick trip to St. Louis to celebrate our wedding anniversary and the 4th (No, our anniversary is not on the 4th, it was last Saturday the 28th, but because of a scheduled garage sale and golf, we postponed it until the 3rd, LOL). Anyway, the deal was, the hubby wanted to see the Cards and I wanted to see the VP Parade downtown. He found a deal to get tickets and away we went. Unfortunatley, we did not get to see the Cardinals beat the Mets. Nor did we get to see Albert Pujols get to hit his 300th homerun, but we still had a great, rainy night at the game. I'll post more about that later.

This morning, after a long, I mean LONG night downtown, we got up a few hours later to see the parade. Here's the tolerant hubby, perched for the morning probably wondering why he didn't get to eat breakfast. Notice the St. Louis Cardinal Hawaiian shirt he is wearing. I think it will be a new favorite. He left his sunglasses in the car, so my guess is, he didn't really see me snap this pic. I was perched down from him for a better view of the parade. He was patient, as always. Oh, I forgot to mention, his tennis shoes even have the St. Louis Cards emblem. I think he must be in a gang or something.
I'll just show you a few patriotic type pics for now. The parade was 2 hours long and quite entertaining. The weather couldn't have been better.

I saved the following picture for last. It's my favorite of the whole day (other than a closeup I took of a clown). From where I was sitting, I could see the Arch with the flag waving proudly in the breeze. America the Beautiful!!
