Well, I haven't written in a while, so I thought I would write a quick update. I have been super busy lately. Jinelle turned four last week, and we had THREE different parties for her. On Sunday, we had Desi and Manny, and Stephi and Luke over for dinner and a cookie cake. They gave her her birthday presents and she got to open them. She got a pair of DC Shoes (Uncle Many likes expensive shoes!) and a bunch of Hannah Montana stuff (Including a set of tattoos, which the entire sheet ended up on her arm, all at one time!). Then on Tuesday (her actual b-day) she had her church friends and three youngest cousins over for a party. We ate dino chicken, cheetos and Capri Suns, along with cupcakes. Oh, and we can't forget that we had popcorn frshly popped in Jinelle's very own popcorn maker. (and I'm not talking about a little air popper. Its pretty big. Its a table top one that tastes SO good. Just like the theaters!! It was from Grandma and Grandpa, Goose, and Jay and I) They all got to play on Heather's water slide that she so graciously let us borrow! That party was from 12:30 pm to 3:30 pm. Then at 5:00 pm we met a bunch of the family at Red Robin for dinner. Then we came back to our house where even more friends and family joined us at 7:30 for cake and ice cream. Oh, and after dinner but before cake, the kids, Jason, adn Alex went on the water slide, which was freezing cold by that time. It is starting to cool off at night and the water got quite chilly.
Then after recovering from that, I went to Las Vegas for Time Out for Women. I go tot stay at the Luxor with my mom and sister. It was a lot of fun. We went shopping on the way up and just had a fun relaxing time. While I was gone, my dad and Jason had the kids and five soccer games to attend. (Ari had a double header). Noah scored twice and his team won (AGAIN!). Aiden had an assist adn his team also won. Jinelle scored like 7 times, and we don't keep track of tiny tot goals, so they proabably won but who knows. Ari scored, but her team didn't win either game. They only had one sub so only some girls got to sit, Ari NOT being one of them. So she ran for an hour, had a break for two hours, and then ran for another hour. Her poor legs were sore for days. I think today is the first day she hasn't said that they hurt still.
Sunday was church. Then Monday I got the house all ready and did some shopping. Jinelle was at the river with grandma and grandpa, so I got to have a kid-free day, until the others got home from school. Tuesday was spent shopping, cleaning, babysitting, and getting the house ready. Then at 5 pm last night, the crowd arrived. We had a church social at our house, and we had quite the turn out. I think about 75 people showed up. We had tons of food and lots of fun. The Tuataga family danced for us and we just enjoyed one anothers company. Today, I have been drained, both physically and emotionally. I had the baby again. Jinelle, Lauryn, and I ventured over to Costco to return some stuff and buy other stuff. Then home and vegged. I haven't had much energy today. No desire to clan. Something about just cleaned two times the entire house spotless in less than a week to just have it destroyed by visitors has me not wanting to do much.
So until Aiden's party next week, I don't think I will be having any guests over! SO NO SURPRISE VISITORS!!!!! :) So when I get around to downloading pics, I will load some of Jinelle.....if I get around to it that is.
