What a week.... I was so tired - you know how crazy every thing can happen at the day or week... last week every single day and night I had something thing going -
I actually started this entry on Monday - now it is already Wednesday night! When it rains it pours. Hopefully you've still tuned in...
Last week every night we had something on the calendar - we had a big HFPE dinner with Linda's ward last Tuesday, we did a happy unbirthday party and wore funny hats to celebrate the RS Birthday. It was fun, but a ton of work. Our "committee" is really only me (counsellor) and the HFPE Leader - so from our ward it was me and one other lady cleaning until 10pm. But from Linda's ward they had about 8 people which was really nice.
Wednesday I had a big Girl Scout event - so Chirstina - even though you say you're glad you don't have boys with a bunch of activities - I'm still crazy with the one girl!! My troop (of 21 girls) hosted an event for another 21 girls - I did all the prep work by myself - so I had to prep for 6 activities times 42 girls!
Thursday Linda and I were in charge of our meal prep group - that was exhausting too - it's always so fun to go and have meals to bring home, but it's so much work when it is your month! Then to top it off - we went to Rite Aide after for ice cream, and they didn't have any! Well, maybe like Black Currant or Cherry, and Rainbow sherbert! What a let down!
Friday - was our school's Disco Bingo - which is always fun - but so loud! Why do places always think the louder the music the better? But the good news is, we (or rather mom) got 2 bingo's and one of our raffle tickets won - so we did really well - one of our prizes was an ITunes GC! Can't beat that.
Saturday & Sunday was my daughter's dance convention - the last of the year- she's the one that dances the whole time, but man, I'm exhausted by the end. However, now that the girls are getting older - the moms are getting smarter - we went for a matinee & dinner. It was also Baseball opening weekend so Mike had his hands full.
Mike was so sweet, the boys all planted roses in the front yard to surprise me when I got back.
This week is a little better but with just the regular busy - Mike sent tulips to me at work yestreday - it was very sweet - we saw the musical Jersey Boys on St. Patrick's day with our friends - we've all been listening to the music since - so he wrote on the card "my eyes adore you". .... I know you want to say how sappy, but I enjoyed it!
We're planning our summer vacation - we're going to San Diego for a week - it should be fun. I'm just looking forward to Spring Break! I need it.... I'm trying to convince Mike that we should go to NYC in the fall - we've been watching Grease: You're the one that I want! and the kids loved it - it's cheesy, but it was fun to watch!
Well gotta get those kids to bed...
FINALLY an update! holy cow you've been busy!!
