30 Days of Erica age 23

Day 24 of 30 Days of Erica.....age 23

It has really been a pleasure traveling down Memory Lane with Erica memories.  Seeing my girl grow from birth to an adult and become a wife and mother has been a treasure beyond compare.

 We started a tradition of matching PJ's at Christmas for the adult girls.  Later....we added the little ones.  This was the first year for them.  '08

 Erica wanted a Baskin Robbins ice cream cake for this birthday.

 This was at Paint a Piece.  We do a Girls Gift every year at Christmas and this was Tami's gift to all of the girls.  Needless to say....she won BEST GIFT this year.  She also provided food and snacks for us. We ate and laughed and talked and painted a ceramic piece.  I was good at everything but the painting a piece.  But ....it was fun.  This is Aundrea and Erica eating some of Tami's delicious Chicken Pasta Salad.

 As I said earlier....Aundrea, Erica, Rylie, Savannah, and I started a weekly girls day out together.  Here we are eating at O'Charley's.  Then....below we went to the park to give the girls a walk outside.

Here was another Girls Day out....we went to Paula Deen's buffet and boy was it delicious.  Most food I ever did see.

 Savannah's first trip in the boat at Heber Springs.  6/09

 We bowled in 08 in a summer bowling league and had a great time.  We even won our league because we were the most improved since we started with such a HIGH handicap.  So....we decided to do the league again in 09.Alan designed and made our shirts for us.  The Hot Wings.....was our team name.  But sadly ...this year....we didn't win.  But we did have fun.

 This was Rylie's 2nd birthday and Savannah's 1st  party of her cousin's to attend.  

 We also used to do a weekly supper at my house and watch American Idol.  We called it Am Idol night.  Here is Erica/Alan/Savannah.  It was the first night of the season and Savannah's first one.

WE did Race for the Cure and Amodeo Chiropractor Clinic sponsored us and provided the shirts.  I did the 5 K and Erica did the 1 mile fun walk with Savannah in the stroller.

Here is Savannah's 1st birthday.  She is about to dive into her smash cake.  After the candle is blown out of course.  Erica made her cake and her smash cake.

And we are back to Christmas...with this year's version of our matching PJ's for Christmas 09.
