Crazy Friday

I should've known when I woke up & thought it was Saturday that it wasn't going to be a good day yesterday. We have a lady that cleans our house every other Friday. When I say a lady I mean 4 ladies. I hired Gilda & she has a team of 3 other ladies that help her. Today was that Friday. So there I sit at my desk & my cell rings. I see it's Salvadore & it hit me...."oh crap, I turned on the alarm!". Salvadore is Gilda's husband/translator.  I've done this several times before but I always remember or Dean calls & says "you didn't turn on the alarm did you?", I say "yes" & haul it home to try to turn it off before they show up. Not this week. It's a wonder I didn't have 4 Mexican ladies passed out in my front yard from heart failure! It was probably only a matter of minutes from happening. When the alarm co. called Dean they'd already dispatched the police. Oops.

We had lots of errands to run this weekend so we decided to go ahead & get some stuff knocked out last night. We went to Chili's for dinner because it's convenient to everywhere we needed to go. Can you say WORST service ever? Ugh!! It took awhile to get our food, he forgot our refills, after we finished eating they tried to bring us someone else's food & when he brought the check not only had he charged us for our food but also for the food they brought out that was someone else's! We finally got everything straight & were on our way. We did our Lowe's, Bed, Bath & Beyond, Sam's, Target, Academy run & then went to visit our friends Stan & Renee. We hung out at their house until almost midnight. For those keeping track, that's 2 Friday's in a row I was out after 12:00!!

This morning was Cael's 5th birthday party. His mom is my good friend Allison. Cael had a swimming party & the kids had a great time.

The birthday boy.

Jill's baby Preston loves the water! He's not scared at all.

Bayleigh, Lane & Cael took turns getting pulled in the tube.


Cael had a Batman party. The cake was really good. Yes, I did have a piece & no it's not on the diet. However, cake is my weakness. I guess I should say icing is my weakness. LOVE IT!! This cake came from Albertson's & it was really good.


Emily enjoyed hanging out, eating cookies & watching the other kiddos. She's not a fan of the water.

One party down, one to go. Dean's cousin's baby turned 2 & her birthday party was this afternoon.

This is Sammie.

Sammie loves Dora. Her grandpa made her cake. It was DELICIOUS!!!! Yes, I had another piece. Couldn't help it. It was a small piece though.

This is me with Dean's cousin/Godchild, Lexie. She's 15 now. When Dean & I started dating she was 2, the same age as Sammie. That is soooo hard for me to believe.

I hope everyone is enjoying their holiday weekend!

Toodles!
