First day of summer.....
I still haven't downloaded my pics. Lazy, Lazy. I had a bunch of people over yesterday for a BBQ. I don't usually do stuff like that (I get so nervous for some reason asking people over?). I invited 5 couples and their kids over. Everyone came and it was so much fun. It was a crazy day however. I got up and went out to do some yardwork early. I spent 4 hours in my backyard pulling weeds. For those of you who have not seen my backyard it is tiered. So you have the top tier where the swingset is and then there are three tiers of planter boxes and then the bottom level where the tramp and BB court are. Well the 3 planter box tiers have not been weeded since we moved in. Yes, 3 years now.... I am still not done with one tier yet. I got all creeped out because of all the bugs and then stopped. I need to finish today. Ok, so then at about 12:00 I decided I better run to the store to get my stuff. I packed the kids in the car and we went to Walmart. I was looking totally hot.... I got home at about 2:45 from running my errands and then I had to bake my cake and make my salad. Then I had to set up the chairs and get my house picked up. I jumped in the shower at about 5:45 and was all ready before everyone came at 6:00. (hair wet, but fully clothed) Luke fell off a kids chair twice, yes 2 times and hit his head on the same sprinkler, both times in the same spot. He was bleeding all over, but it wasn't very deep so luckily we didn't have to take him to the doctor! Whew.... other than that I think it was a nice night. After everyone left I mopped my kitchen floor and the tile floor in the basement, wiped down my bathrooms, picked up all the toys and did the dishes. I got to bed about 11:45. I had to get up at 5:00 this morning to take the YM to the temple to do baptisms. I am now totally wasted. I already fell asleep on the couch once this morning.....not a good thing to do with an 18 month old wandering around. I think I might take the boys to the dollar theatre to see Horton Hears a Who. I need to do something that requires very little work today!!

Wow! I'm totally impressed. You have been busy. 5 couples and their kids - you are crazy! :) I hope you enjoyed the movie. You deserve a break after all that!
Sounds hectic. I can't believe you stayed up and did all that cleaning after all the work you put in before the party. Sounds like fun. Hope you like the movie!
Okay, I am exhausted just reading that! You are Wonder Woman!! Sounds like it was a success though! You definitely deserve a break!
Hope you had a great time - and that it was worth all the work! Don't forget you have a friend clear down here - she loves bbq's and only has one kid - okay so maybe 2 in about a month and half. JK - hope you had a good time!

Sounds like a great day! And hey- sleep is overrated anyway... :)!! Can't wait to see you at Club- it's been WAY too long! :)
holy cow Wonder Women, I am so impressed. I didn't think there was enough time in the day to do all that. Well maybe there is enough time I just don't use it wisely.
We had sooooo much fun. Thanks for putting yourself out there and inviting people.
If we do it again, I want to help you more. I don't want it to be so much work for you. I can help you weed, mop, do dishes, and I even do bathrooms. I should have at least helped you pick up toys. If we do it at your house again I don't think you should worry about making any food. And I will bring meat for you. I make some nummy things called tornadoes and I want to bring them for you.
I hope you had a relaxing afternoon on Tuesday.
Wow, I am impressed. Sounds like you are off to a busy summer already. Maybe you can come and do some yard work at our house, sounds like you have the hang of it. We will hopefully have a yard in by the end of the summer...
It sounds like you had a lot of fun.
