This was SERIOUSLY the most awesome NB moment that I have had yet!!! Everyone was high-fiving me.... they called me up on the stage and asked me about it... and the guy went "Here's to Divorce!" And, everyone cheered!!! It was truly the most theraputic experience of my life!!!! I'm still grinning from ear to ear!!!

that's just so awesome! love all the pics, especially the "go mom go" and "trash the dress" ones. What a cutie you have! Looks like she's mom's #1 cheerleader, too.

She really is!!! I enjoyed getting pictures done with her and making her some signs! It was an awesome day and I highly recommended it as a "must-do" experience! Runner or not! I loved every second of it!

Here's a big toast to your Divorce! CLINK! Great photos!

Imagine a ship trying to set sail while towing an anchor. Cutting free is not a gift to the anchor. You must release that burden, not because the anchor is worthy, but because the ship is.

Congrats and thanks for sharing. You and BabyBeanz are adorable.

But I have to say you don't look so happy yo me. In fact, you look kinda BLUE.
