Busy weekend

Boy am I tired. We've just made it through an entire month of busy weekends. I think they are over now. I have to work our commencement next Friday nite and then I can breathe.

Last night was the Spring dance at Taylor's school. She went with her best friend, Ariane. They looked so grown up in their dresses. They are both very lovely girls. I will have some pictures but I am too tired to download them tonite. They had a blast according to Taylor so I guess it was all worthwhile!

Today was Tristan and Pat's party. It was also Ariane's birthday too. We never got the house totally cleaned like we wanted - but I guess everyone survived anyway. The yard was still a big pile of mush and Dad almost ended up flat on his back in the mud. The chair sunk in the ground and took him backwards. It did not look fun. On the bright side, it was a beautiful and hot day. The kids got to swim and it appeared that they had a good time. The house was hot with all the people in it. I wish our new air conditioner had already been installed but that happens next weekend. The dog escaped from her pen and eventually ended up in the super muddy part of the yard. So another good thing...she got a bath tonite. Now she smells good. It was great to see everyone...we are blessed with a wonderful family. It was extra nice to see Randy and Susan as I don't get to see them very much.

Tristan had a great time and I am hoping he has finally passed out. He's been running on empty for a couple of hours now. After everyone left, we've been opening present after present. We did ninja turtles, a pokemon dude, star wars figures and transformer and he and his dad had a light saber fight. Some of the spiderman things he wanted to open involved putting stuff together and outside play (the web shooter thing) so we told him he would have to wait until tomorrow. We are too pooped. (I just checked and he's in there snoring very loudly. That was one tired kid!) Oh and during the party he dressed like Captain Jack. When mom sends me that picture I will post it. He and Caden were very dapper.

We got to meet Taylor's boyfriend, Steven. He is cute and very nice. He didn't even shy away from all the strange people.

The girls are still going strong. I don't know where they get all that energy. My legs feel like they are going to fall off. I wish I had the drive Susan does. She is looking great!

Well I am rambling and not making much sense. I am so tired I can hardly see the words on the screen. I will write again later when I am coherent. Later.
