To network or not to network.......

Dinner with Marina and Elda
that is the question. Living in the age of technology, there are several networking websites. You have MySpace, and then there is Facebook. I did the MySpace thing. It was ok, but if you ask me, a little more for teenagers. Then I started with Facebook. I have to say it has been great. You have the chance to re-connect with old friends, and stay connected with new friends. You can see current pictures of them, and also pictures of their families. You can read about what they do on a daily basis.


In the past few months I have had the oppurtunity to not only re-connect with old friends online, but I have even met up with some for dinner. Last month, I had dinner with two friends from Douglas. Elda and Marina. It was nice to sit and chat, all while enjoying a great dinner. Unfortunaetly all our lives are busy, and there is no possible way to catch up in two hours. Tonight, we met for dinner again, and in talking we decided that it would be a good idea to plan a "Reunion". A reunion for any Douglas High Alumni. So many people that went to DHS live either in the valley, or Tucson. It would be nice to just meet up one night and have fun. We talked about going to Flickas, since it seems that most people from Douglas like to hang out there anyways. We did'nt get to talking about dates too much. Marina is getting married in March, and she has a lot of planning to do. We decided to wait untill after her wedding. Maybe April? Regardless of what day this reunion takes place, I am happy that I have found so many of my dear friends on Facebook, and so I say......network away!
*Yes, that is Sangria on the table. My only defense is that I never mentioned Sangria or Carrabba's on my "Goodbyes" post.

After you posted this pic on FB, I had to try Sangria. I had never tasted it before. So Jacque & I met up at Cheesecake Factory a couple weeks ago & I tried it. Loved it, but I'm a cheapskate & it was too pricey for me at Cheesecake. I'll have to order a beer next time! :)

Here are pictures of the invitations for Kassie's 13th Birthday party. I had so much fun making them. Hum...maybe because I used my three favorite colors, maybe because I like to make invitations, or maybe it's just because I LOVE to plan parties. Either way, here is a sneak peak. Sorry the pictures are so bad, my camera is dead and I used my phone.

My life through my iPhone 2

Part II of "My life through my iPhone.                    Saturday was the Marcos De Niza Homecoming!  Kassie and Aaron had a blast!  I was able to finish Kassie's ballroom shoes on Sunday. It was spirit week for Corona del Sol and on Monday it was TV character day.  She dressed as Blaire Waldorf from Gossip Girl.  Corona had a bon fire on Thursday, and the Pommies performed a hip hop routine.  Here is a picture I stole from Instagram. On Saturday evening, the kids decided to carve pumpkins.  Here is Nachito and Chanel getting ready to carve. Kassie and her friend Amanda did some carving too!  These may not be great posts, but it's a start.

Flashback Friday

Joining in with Alicia again. Head on over to her blog to participate. You can get there by clicking here . As promised, I will countdown Kai's birthdays parties every Friday from now on until we reach her 13th Birthday. Come join in Disney fun as Kassandra Paulyna turns one! Saturday, September 6, 1997 From day one, Kai was always smiling. Her cake was made by my sister Ana. Her piñata was bigger than she was. Two pages from her scrapbook, which I haven't kept up with, hence the blog. Kai's first birthday was bitter sweet. I had been planning it for about four months. At the time I was a stay at home mommy and I had nothing better to do. It was bitter sweet, because my dad had passed away two weeks prior to her party. We really considered moving the date or cancelling the party all together, but my mom said that my dad would not want that. So we went ahead with the party. At the time, we lived in Douglas, and parties in Douglas tend to be pretty big. We rented a dan...
