Ah, Spring is in the air and it is time to update my webpage. Some great things have happened to me in the past few months of the year 2001. I not only had another super party aptly named The Big 3-0 for all the people in my life turning 30 lately, but also have met a special guy who I am starting to date. Sit back, relax and enjoy the pictorial tour of my year so far!

Ian was very excited to dig in to the "Big 3-0" cake I had specially made for my soiree. I told him he had to pose with a nice big smile before I would give him any cake. He passed with this handsome pose! Thanks Ian!

My sweet pal Carol and I huddled by the delightfully warm crackling fire. It was a very chilly night, so the fireplace was a popular hangout by many guests throughout the party! :)

Bzzzz! I had a fun time with the Taboo buzzer as we played this word game I am so fond of. Say an incorrect word to describe a term on the card, and you get the "Bzzzz! " in your ear! Nice photo op with my good friend Ligeia when I was in charge of the buzzer.

My lil nephew Trevor, now 4, is a sucker for sweets just like my brother Sean is! I guess watching his dad indulge in sweet stuff made him love things like chocolate pudding as well. Here we are striking a pose at brunch for my brother's 32nd birthday. Nice brown teeth ya got there, Trev!

Speaking of smiles, I took this pic with my new boyfriend Jon. We met right around Valentines Day this year, and have really enjoyed getting to know one another. I look forward to our times together, and hope we both can learn from one another, as this is a new thing for both of us. :)

And there you go. As you can see, I have had a pretty happy start to 2001. Hope the rest of the year goes by just as smoothly, including finding a job. To be continued...
