Christian worked some OT this morning, so it was just me and the girls. Luckily I got a lot of stuff done yesterday for the shower. We're having a taco bar and rice for lunch, so all I really had to do was make the taco meat and the rice, and load everything into the car. The girls were pretty good this morning. They played, ate some breakfast and just kind of did their own thing so I was able to get my food cooked. The problem started when I decided it would be a good idea to take a quick shower...I got out to find them sitting on the bathroom floor, covered in lotion. I suppose it could have been worse!
My mom stopped over right as I got out of the shower to watch the girls for a while, so I could load up the car and head over to Kari's house. She took them over to Walmart (and YAY, bought Olivia a new pair of school shoes, and each of them some sunglasses!), and got them some lunch. Until Christian got home from work, then she came over to join the shower.
The shower went great. The food was delicious, and games were a hit, and Kari and Jay got some great stuff. It was a really good day, and it seemed like everybody enjoyed themselves, which is most important. While the girls napped, Christian cut the grass and got some yardwork done.
After the shower, Kari's mom, sisters, and their families hung around for leftovers, so Christian and the girls came over to hang out. The girls had a blast playing with Kari's nephew, and they were exhausted when we got home. It was a long day, but definitely a good one!
Today's Photo a Day in May is Something That Makes You Happy. Of course, being with my BFF!
And, here are some more photos of the shower. I didn't get many "people photos", but at least I captured some of the set up...
