I was up early this morning…I decided to prep the food for tonight. It was kinda nice just having the TV on and being in the kitchen by myself. The kids ate breakfast and we headed over to Grammy’s. We wanted to spend some time with Buffi and Mark. We all went to the swap meet. The first thing we found was one of the animal safety harnesses for Nicole. She was ecstatic. She picked out a dog one and it even barks. I had to hold her leash the entire time. We let Justin pick out a truck. But after getting his truck he just wanted to go home and play with it. We went to Sunday brunch with everyone. The kids ate so much. Justin was full of maple syrup and sticky! On the way home we had to stop at a computer store for daddy to do a return. Then we headed home. We cleaned up a bit to get ready for our friends to come over. I walked Nicole around with her leash while she cleaned up toys for me. It was pretty silly. Justin made a drive thru for his new truck with some sticks. Then they both pretended they were Ms. Donna and asked whose name it was and counted all the people that were in school. It was so cute and it lasted a while, they played so nicely. I guess Justin was playing the teacher, Ms. Donna as he asked who had sharing and Nicole said I do. She sat up next to Justin and gave her clues for her lion. I guess dad was in a food coma as he needed a nap. We had a great time with our friends. We let the kids watch TV a bit so we could be with our friends. Can’t believe Jenny Jen is married and pregnant. It was nice to see Len, Mary and meet their baby Ryan and Ken/Cathy. We had a nice dinner. The kids had a blast helping Jenny Jen open all her presents; I can’t believe how fast they open presents these days. Nicole and Justin walked our friends out to their cars. Then they played so well. Ken and Cathy brought them some lunch bags from Hawaii since they helped take care of Pali. The kids filled them up with their pretend food, played outside, etc. We ended up letting the kids stay up until 8:45 since they were playing so well. I am tired. Time to clean up then relax.
