This certainly won’t be a long blog as party plans are under way. This morning I went to get my hair cut and colored while dad stayed here and played with the kiddos. I met them over at Lowe’s where they made garages. The kids had a great time and were excited to play with them. Dad had to go over to Grammy’s to help Sharon with a leak. The kids and I went to Costco and got party food. The kids brought their garages in the cart. When we got home the kids played and played. We had a quick lunch then we played outside for a bit. The kids waited for grandma/pa to come over. They waited and waited for them outside. And got the hose out, played with bricks, grabbed palm frans, etc. I left to go take pics for the pre school family photos. Dad got home before me and did some stuff around the house, mow the lawn, etc. I can’t believe how much effort it takes to get ready for parties. But I love it and will be glad that we are doing it. I just can’t believe that it has worn me out. I made the kids cupcakes (the kids will decorate them). We grabbed dinner and brought it home. I made the kids big cupcake with Nicole helping. We let the kids watch TV while the cupcake cooked. They are into Clifford these days. Nicole makes Justin be Emily Elizabeth while she is Clifford. Dad had to do a little work so I gave the kiddos a shower. At first they were fighting but then didn’t want to get out. They ran around naked for a bit and then we read books. I was surprised the kiddos went right to bed. Dad worked on their sign for their party and I was on cupcake patrol. I think we will be done soon then to relax!
