weekend update\recap

hello boys and squirrels! this weekend was FUUUNNN! sorry you missed it, addie. i understand, you have priorities. it was a giant family reunion is what it was. also got to see some old friends, like rudy, who was my escort for every frikkin' quincinera i was ever in! roland and joey, who were at my house EVERY. FRIKKIN'. WEEKEND. when we were in junior high. monica, who i've had the very pleasant experience of reconnecting with since she's part of the family. well, S1's family. anyways... to recap:

friday - S1 cancelled plans to decorate the hall because they were doing the floors or something, so i just stayed home and picked up a bit. also watched memoirs of a geisha. i think the book told the story much better, but i still really liked the movie. played on the laptop some. i now have over 3000 fonts and crazy mad font lady is stopping now. i think i got enough for my friends' kids, my sisters' kids, my future kids and my future kids' kids!

saturday morning - for the SECOND weekend in a row, got up early for S1. last weekend, it was for the cancelled basketball game because of the sickly princess. this weekend, it was to decorate for the party. and AGAIN, she is not on time. i'm going to start showing up an hour late for everything she has now... cuz THAT'S when SHE will actually be there.

i got a wedding planner out the deal so i'm not complaining too too much. we'll just call her J-Lo.. or Jayala... or J-La. i'm not sure yet. first, we'll have to see if she gets her internship, closer to home. if so, she's all mine! if not, i don't wanna make the poor girl drive all the way from school whenever we need something.

after the FOUR AND A HALF hours of decorating.... i couldn't even think straight. i didn't even WANT to shop for anything new to wear. i went home and tried to rest, seeing as she wanted me back at 6:30. we didn't leave the damn hall until nearly 3:00! AND i still had to get ice!

saturday nite - good times. like i said earlier, we got to reconnect with all the peeps. i got to see cousins i haven't seen in years. my cousins, paul and freddie. we had fun dancing with them. after the party, we went to my mom's and i got to show my great aunt the type of dress i wanted. she is a fabulous seamstress and has offered to make my wedding dress for me. i'm still not sure if i want one made or if i just want to go and rent one. regardless, it was a nice offer and she can do anything i want.

sunday - HM bribed me to leave him at home. i had already told him he needed to be with the family on sunday, for breakfast. i knew he had a rough week, so i wasn't too hard on him. basically, he provided barbacoa and tortillas as an addition to the breakfast at mom's. i was nice... i brought him breakfast before i left.

afterwards, we went to S1's to rack up on leftover bbq from the par-tay. i hung out with the kids for a while then decided i'd had enough of family and came home.


i got home and just got lazy with HM. we took a really good nap and only got up to eat. he made some chicken fajitas that went really well with my mom's homemade tortillas. that's about all i got.

good nite and have a pleasant tomorrow. if you want to see all the photos from the weekend, click here.
