Friends Are Family By Choice.

Family is EVERYTHING to me. You only get one family. Well in till you marry, their family becomes your family. I am so so so BLESSED to have a huge family. Some I see daily, one a week, once a month, just on Holidays, or just at weddings or even worst a funeral. I LOVE my family doesnt matter when I see them.
Gabe and I are so BLESSED to have the most AMAZING friends. You know who you are. some we are closer too more than our own family. We are each other Godparents for each others kids, vacation together spend our weekends with, my shopping partners etc. Their are friends who also come and go thought our lives. Some we grew up who we only get see a couple times a year or more. Friends from places we have worked, Neighbors, Friends we have meet thought our kids. I am so BLESSEd to have made some AMAZING friends though out my life. They make life much more comforting just knowing their are people out there that love and support us just like family.
I am so PROUD my boys have made some really good friend choices too. I even LOVE their parents too. Some are like family to us. I hope they take in what they see the choices Gabe and I have made in friends. They say parents are children's biggest role model and influence. As one of my BFF Jen always tells me Im setting the BAR WAY HIGH no girls will EVER be good enough for my boys. I just laugh and tell her "thats right it has to a special girl to put up with my spoiled Italian/Mexican Prince's"
THANK GOD it's the weekend. Its my fave time to spend time with family and friends. BBQ, going out to dinners, movies, church, or just laying around watching UFC, football highlights ect. with my boys. However you spend your time with family and friends CHERISH them!!! Life is short to deal with drama with family or friends. Just cut out the drama or people who create all the drama around you. Remember life is way too short do what makes you happy, spend time with those who make smile and laugh. Hug and kiss them show them you love them.

Meal Ideas for weekend.
