I never think of good titles. But hey say hi to my friends Maddy and Jill who I just found out are bloggers and here we have been neighbors,friends and gone to church together for over 2 years. Wierd, huh?
Lazy Sunday today, I have gotten nothing accomplished but that is a good thing today, I love it. Mark is working today. He keeps telling people he's "Doing the ironman". So they act all impressed but then he has to add that he's "working at it directing traffic" Har har har what a comedian.
I had such a fun time on Saturday. I got to sleep in a little. Well actually I thought I was sleeping in but then after I got up (at what I thought was 9) I went out to the kitchen and realized that my clock was wrong and it was only 8. Oh well, my body was feeling as if it had been 9, how tricky! Then I got to go wedding dress shopping with my sister Katie who is getting married in June (I feel old now). She was 5 when I got married. Eeek. I was a little worried when they picked me up to go that she had no colors picked, no theme, no idea what kind of dress she liked....she basically had a ring, a guy, and my moms credit card. LOL So mom, sis Emily and Katie and I head out to Davids bridal to do some damage. Between the hours of 10 am and 4 pm we picked colors/flowers (raspberry pinks and green hydrangea silks for the big arrangements) Tons of Tulle to tie the chairs, and THE dress.(all on sale, no less!) On the way home they found the flower girl dresses, bridesmaid dresses and Kamerons ring. Also all on sale. Pretty productive, I must say. Her dress is very gorgeous. I started crying when I saw her in it. *sigh*
Things turned bad though after I got home,I did an updo for prom then I drove out with the 3 little boys to go to Cades second football game. It was at Kiwanis park (which I am not very familiar with) and I could NOT FIND THEM!! Marks mom and I drove around for about half an hour and could not find them anywhere, I was so tired from this crazy past couple weeks just and this was the last thing to do in a loooong series of events the last few weeks, I got so extremely beyond FRUSTRATED!!! The other mom that I knew out at the game's phone was off, Mark was wrapped up in coaching, he never even heard me call (nor did I expect him to) so there was no other way to find them. I got a map of the park, coudn't find it. I sorta held it together, I did not cry and I just said screw it and went home. No sense wasting my gas, but it killed me to miss my Cader boys' football game. Of course he had played great and got a sack and our team did great even though we lost. Everyone had a blast and I missed it!! GRRR! I apologised profusely and heard all about it at least. It really sucked to miss out.
Backtrack to friday night...Party went really great! Its amazing how simple you try to make things, its still SO much work. I couldn't really even concentrate on it until a couple days before becauses of all of the Easter/Funeral/Family in town going on, but I had lots of help and tried to delegate as much as I could. Its funny when you do that (delegating) you still have to cover your bases because stuff comes up and people can't always follow through. So you still end up doing a lot. I really had a lot of help, and I really did not cook one thing, pretty good considering it was food for 40 people at 6 different locations and only 1 thing from an actual restaurant. We all had a great time!! I was so thrilled with all the people that came out to support it, it was great. I have to admit that over the years I am getting the "anal-retentative-ness" beat out of me and I can let so much stuff just go thats not important. Hopefully nobody noticed that I had an outlet cover missing from my main family room wall, and I have NO flowers in the front of my house.I think there were some grass clippings on my sidewalk in front of the door, too. It sucks having hte lamest house on the block. LOL 5 years ago these things would have sent me over the edge for a party of this type, but I guess I'm getting more mature. Or tired. Anyway, We went to Maddy and Dustins' to play games after, I haven't seen Mark and some of the other guys laugh so hard in a looong time. It was hysterical! We need to start doing game night WAY more often with our neighbors. It was a riot.
OK time to go console Cooper, on the floor next to me having a meltdown because I won't let him get the halloween masks out. I'm such a meanie LOL

Glad to hear that the dinner party went so well! YAY ...& about your little sis & all the wedding planing...a BIG YAY YOU!
Five when you got married? Wow. But we're the same age and we're NOT old!! :o)
Yes, you are a mean mommy. lol
I hate titling them too! I went through a period of time when I boycotted the titles, but that was even harder to do than actually titling them!
We had so much fun on Friday. Good job putting it all together :) And your house looked FABO! I am jealous of all your cute decorations.
Hope you found a dress for the wedding! Sounds like planning it was tons of fun. Geez, did I write a book?
