Another busy week!

I have been so non stop I havent had the chance to hop on here and update in a while. It was a crazy fast weekend, that actually started last week! I worked in Christopher's class Thursday and Friday since Mrs Stark was sick and she needs help in there. Friday night I went out with Melissa, Angie, Danielle, Brooke, Francis, Jen, and Katie to Bahama Breeze and had a BLAST! We all ordered a few drinks and laughed so much my face hurt! I was sad when the night ended for me. I had fought a migrain all day long and was amazed it let up enough for dinner, but some of the girls were going home, and some where going to drink 25c beers and party and I had to go get stuff for Christopher's party and his birthday gift and knew I needed sleep. I went to Walmart, had a miserable time there until a manager finally came to my rescue after being almost laughed out of the electronics department by these two jerks and he fixed the problem, and hopfully chewed the workers out good too! (Thanks Robert! You ROCK!!) I finished up and got home around 11:30. The next morning was a madhouse cleaning and organizing, wrapping and filling water balloons. My mom and Steve came by early and brought Christopher his gifts (a buck hunter game and tattoos) and stayed for about an hour which was nice to get to visit quietly, then Francis and Brannon and the girls came by and hung out for a few, long enough for Garik to poop all over francis, lol! After they left the rest of the kids came, and surprisingly enough, the parents left! LOL! All of them!!!! I had bought a TON of food and we threw away whole pizzas finally this weekend from them getting nasty and uneaten. We *still* have cupcakes in the kitchen, and bags of unopened chips and bottles of unopened soda! It was officially the wierdest birthday I have ever hosted. The whole cake thing lasted 5 seconds, the presents opened was another 5 seconds, and the kids just played and ran around until they parents came back around 8pm. Jake ended up spending the night and that was nice and I was up til 11pm putting lego star wars ships together. The next morning I made pancakes and eggs and they played until his mom came finally around 10am and then Christopher told me his birthday was awesome!....ummm....okaaaaay?!?! HA!!
Sunday we went to the walmart for groceries and I got a bathing suit (yuck!, but it works, but I *need* to get this weight off now this summer!, at least another 15 pounds is my goal before September).
Yesterday we went to the lake in the afternoon for a few hours and had dinner. We had such a nice time with just us 4. The kids were swimming so good with their water wings on, and Laci swam with her wings and ring all over the place! She was an animal out there! (quite literally at times snapping and snarling like some wild beast being a "mean shark") We finally swam all the way across to the island and Christopher was intrigued, and Laci just grossed out, lol! We had such a nice time. We came home to a cage full of poop thanks to Clover, but Brian cleaned it up for me and the kids were in bed asleep by 6:30pm! Me and Brian had chinese for dinner and watched "Its Complictaed" which was a great movie, it made me laugh, and cry, laugh and cry through the whole thing....heartstrings! ugh!
Today we are expecting rain. Its cloudy now but I am not sure the actual rian will develop much though. This week is going to be crazy busy! I am working in christopher's class all day on thursday and from 11:30 on til the end on friday, tomorrow night I have to go to Laighann's house to work on the scrapbook gift for Mrs Stark, and today is cleaning and then Shrek with the kids this afternoon, yay!
I am SO ready for summer!! I am taking a huge step AWAY from facebook. Facebook is killing my life away. I want to get back to posting on here more like I used to and summer and fall is ALWAYS jam-packed with the kids and brian anyhow, and will be even more packed now that laci is finally old enough for us to start doing more stuff and enjoying our time together. I am ready to get back to the basics of my family here on Osmanthus way. We have an awesome vacation coming soon and life is good here in this house. Its time to get away from all the crap in the world, and just focus on what God has blessed me with.

Well, for now I am off. I am going to try yet again to add a ticker for our vacation on here, but for some reason I cant get the code to pull up. :(
