Happy Birthday Court!

Today is my husband's 29th birthday! To celebrate, I just wanted to post a few photos of us, and to tell him I Love YOU! He's the best! Court, I hope you know how much I love you and that I hope this next year is your best ever! HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY!!













I LOVE YOU COURT! :)

Jodi Turns 27 on the 27th in 2007!!

On Saturday night we went over to John and Jodi's house for Jodi's Golden Birthday! She turned 27 on the 27th in 2007, so John decided to throw her a big birthday party. Pretty cool! The party was a blast. John and Jodi are big Halloween fans, so they have lots of cool decorations - the coolest being their Halloween village. They had it set up in a corner of the family room...it was really dim in that corner and they put black lights on it to make it look spooky. I took pictures, but the flash makes it look like the lights are on in the room, even though it was dim. Everyone had really great costumes. I was impressed! Everyone looked so great. John was dressed up as Neil Diamond and Jodi was a Neil Diamond groupie. It was hilarious. We dressed Meredith up as a bumble bee, although she hated the hat and didn't like having her feet constricted, so we ended up cutting leg holes in the costume. And we only put the hat on for pictures. I dressed up as a flower and Court was a redneck. He was going to be Larry the Cable Guy, but we were so busy with packing up the house that there just wasn't time to get it all together. So we went with the Redneck idea. For some reason, Court makes a great redneck! ;) LOL! But seriously... we were glad we got to see all the great costumes and decorations...I've been kind of bummed that we didn't get to do any decorating this year - not even carved pumpkins! :( Court assures me that we'll go all out next year to make up for this year! Fortunately, we'll be getting together with the Riley family again on Halloween...so we should get to see all the fun costumes again! Here's some pictures of the event:



Here's our little Bumble Bee. Isn't she cute!?!


The Fruges: Halloween 2007


The bumble bee and the flower...I had intended to cut a face hole out in the middle of the flower, but there just wasn't enough time. So we improvised!


Neil Diamond and his groupie...John and Jodi are hilarious!


A party isn't a party without FOOD!! ;)


Karaoke Time! We had a lot of fun with the Karaoke. The best part was when Kyle sang Ghostbusters! He had such a blast! The cutest was Jaxon Crow singing Twinkle Twinkle... so sweet!


All the cousins just love to get together... they have a great time.


With Saedree...I love Meredith's expression!


With Liam...I was in the delivery room when Liam was born and now he's holding my baby! Man, I feel OLD!! :)


With RJ...I think they're having a staring contest?? ;)


Getting loves from Bryson!


RJ and Garrett - I love RJ's expression!


Saedree is such a beautiful girl. She's got the prettiest blue eyes!


Kathryn had an amazing costume...she looked so adorable!


Aunt Kristyn makes an arrest! ;)


Here's the Halloween village - like I said, the flash on my camera kinda takes away from the spookiness of it. It looks awesome in dim light with the black lights!

More Party Pix

I have a few more pictures from Mike Fogg's 40th birthday party. I forgot to mention that for most of the night, Court wore this hilarious mullet wig! It had really long hair, so Court cut the hair shorter, but left one long, braided tail down the back. It was awesome! He eventually stopped wearing it because he said it got really itchy. While we were in Vegas we also got to see Brady play in a soccer game and Colin play in a football game. They both did awesome! So I'm posting a few pictures from that. As I said before, we had a total blast in Vegas!

Mike Fogg's 40th Birthday Party!

We headed down to Vegas this past weekend to attend Mike Fogg's 40th Birthday Party. It was a blast!! Michele really went all out. The 80's theme was really fun...they had 80s Karaoke, 80s Trivia, a dance floor with 80s music, clips and trailers from 80s movies and TV shows, and some really great 80s fashions! We got to blow up a couple hundred helium ballons - they lined the ceiling with the ribbons hanging down. It was really cool.

Meredith looked so cute in her little "flashdance" outfit, although I forgot to get her little t-shirt with the neck and sleeves cut off. But she still looked so cute! Court modeled his costume after Michael J. Fox in "Back to the Future". He looked so awesome! I made some friendship bracelets on the drive down... remember those? and had Madonna gloves - fishnet gloves with the fingers cut off, Keds shoes, black leggings with leg warmers, scruncii's in my hair and my big 80s earings. Court laughed when he saw me and said, "I can totally see you actually dressing like that in the 80s." He's right...I did wear all those things back then. Oh the memories!

My First BLOG!!!

The Fruge Family


Meredith Gone Wild!! ;)

Hi everybody! This is my first official blog! Since the Fruge family will be moving to Texas at the beginning of November, I thought I'd start a blog so all of our family and friends can see what we are up to! Today we spent the day packing up our guest room, Meredith's room and some other odds and ends. We're still waiting for the appraisal and home inspection to take place, so we're not rushing the packing right now. We want to make sure everything goes through OK before we box up our entire house. This weekend we will be heading to Vegas for Mike Fogg's 40th birthday party! It's an 80's theme, so we went shopping earlier this week and got our 80's clothes! Meredith is even getting into the act. She'll be the cutest 80's baby ever! So stay tuned to see pictures of the event...it should be good for a laugh. Meredith has finally fallen asleep, so I'm going to go put her into bed! Here's a couple of pictures to look at...Later!
