Forty

We have had a festive, festive weekend here at the Rayfield house.

Friday was a "fancy pants" gala to attend in Raleigh for one of Kevin's clients.

 Kieran took the picture--not too bad.

(I am bummed my shoes got cut off though, they were cute: red peep toe heels.  Murdered my feet later & then I remembered why I don't wear heels anymore.  And I painted my other toes to match my black toenail.  But I digress...)

So while we were at the fancy pants party, the boys spent the night with Kevin's folks in Raleigh ( thanks again Trudy & Johnny), and we met them the next morning in Chapel Hill because we had tickets for this:

 That's right--to see the Heels play!

They didn't play their best, but it was enough for a win and for the boys.

Kevin's still grumbling.

Keenan was thrilled to get on the jumbo-tron at the start of the game & spent the rest of the game trying to get back on the big screen again.

 After the game we spent some time walking around campus.

And then headed back home & to bed early.

Today we're all still tired & the dreary weather hasn't helped.

For dinner tonight Kevin scheduled to meet some good friends of ours at one of our favorite restaurants.

To the friends who got a sitter & came out on a busy night to meet us I say thank you again.

I am blessed by your friendship & a better person for knowing each of you.

I can say that since they were there as an early birthday for me....

I turn forty tomorrow.
