On Tuesday the 11th, my sister and mom came down so that Denise could try on wedding dresses. We had a ball, and it was so neat watching my big sister put on such beautiful gowns. She had three that were absolutely stunning on her and it was so hard to make a decision, but she did, and I've attached a picture of the dress:
HAHA!!! Yeah right!!! Like I'm going to attach a picture of my sister's wedding dress and be subjected to her (and my Mom's) wrath!! Guess you'll just have to wait until July! :)
Anyway - the day was fun...but not really for me. I ended up feeling nauseous about half of the way through Denise trying on dresses. I just assumed it was because I hadn't eaten enough for lunch, so when we went to lunch about an hour later, I could barely eat. They brought me back to my house and I promptly laid down in bed for the rest of the day...that is until around 4pm when I had to decorate a cake for Jeannine that she was picking up that afternoon. (Go here to see that cake and others). The next day, I got myself out of bed long enough to bring the kids to school, came back and slept the whole time, went back and picked them up, and came back and slept again the rest of the afternoon and that night. Thursday, I felt human again finally, and everything seemed back to normal...until Carson threw up in his bed shortly after we laid him down for the night... So Carson hung out with me on Friday while Kendall was at school. Then when Kendall woke up from her nap on Friday...it was obvious that she had had red icing on some cupcakes at school that day...because she threw up all over her bed and the floor. Thankfully - they had gotten the virus that had been going around school that was a "one and done" virus - because after they each got sick...they were fine. Anyway - on Saturday, Jeff went to the mauling that was the Florida Gators playing the South Carolina Gamecocks (we won...HUGE...56-6), while I stayed home and decorated yet another cake - this time for a friend's baby shower (see the above link). However...Jeff and his mom ended up leaving the game at the middle of the 3rd quarter...because he got the virus too it seemed (neither Jeff or I ever threw up - but we both felt horrible). So...on Sunday he rested...felt better long enough for me to go to my baby shower...then slept the rest of the evening. It was Wednesday before he finally felt 100% - but he didn't really get to sleep for almost a full day and a half like I did.
Wednesday night we took the kids to see The Wiggles in concert. It was so much fun!!! I know...it sounds weird for a grown adult to say how much fun a kids concert was...but it really was! I'm sure it was because both kids were really having a good time. Kendall was dancing and jumping and having a ball. Even Carson was waving his arms and smiling a lot. I didn't bring my camera because I thought we weren't allowed to. And the thing that sucked...is we were SO close to the stage too!!! In fact...Kendall even gave the purple Wiggle, Jeff, a high five as he passed by at one point. But I did take a few pictures from my camera, not great quality - but you'll get the idea...
The purple Wiggle is Jeff, blue is Anthony (also the "hot" Wiggle according to all my mommy friends), yellow is Sam (the original yellow one, Greg that you still see in the states on TV, is no longer in the group due to some illness), and red (who I didn't get a picture of) is Murray.
Today there is a home football game...but we have elected not to go. We are going to use the time to make Kendall's cake(s) and get her party ready for tomorrow. That is right...our little girl will be 3 on Monday, so we are having her birthday party (a "yellow birthday") on Sunday afternoon at a local park. So I'm sure that in the next few days I'll post pictures of my little girl's birthday party. However...I did send cupcakes with her to school on Friday (nothing special...just chocolate and chocolate with each of the kids and teacher's names written on them) and the teacher was nice enough to take a few pictures of her day for me.
One of her favorite things to play with at school - a little house in the playground.
Here she is holding a little "card" that they made for her.
Kendall and her classmates enjoying the cupcakes.
Not very pretty...but I think you can tell that she was really enjoying the cupcakes!!! :)
