So - tons of fun at the first birthday party for The Des. I didn't work too hard on this one. Some kid food, some parent food, some presents, and everyone playing outside. None of my kids cried and no one fought over presents (much). The 4 year olds in attendance were more than happy to help Des open his gifts. Des had cake for the first time and ate it for about 20 minutes before taking a breath. Thank god Grandma C was here with her shoulder for Deso's nap in the morning. Pictures to come soon.
G-Judy came to visit and the kids absolutely loved it. All plans went off without a hitch and everyone had a great time. We managed to get through the weekend without eating every meal out ($$) and without shopping ($$). Hubby is happy.
Today feels like everything starts for us. Bubs and I start school and Des and Grandma C do their thing while we're gone. Today's lesson plan at school is busy and messy. We will be painting, stamping, playing, eating, reading and taking pictures. PHEW~
This week we will also welcome Grandma C's closest girlfriends for a visit. "The Girls" will all be here Wednesday. Grandma C is planning quite a visit. We'll even go see Footloose - The Play at a local small theater (of course I'm going) and I'll host a fancy, schmancy dinner party next Saturday.
Here we go!
Can't wait to hear how it goes at school. Have fun!! :)
