cute kids, crawfish, and a watermelon helmet
what a weekend it was...starting on friday, my friend casey and i went to a place called guero's for dinner. yummy mexican food with good atmosphere - we got a lot of good people watching time in. then we actually saw a girl from our junior high days there so when we got back home we called my best friend jen to tell her. well that turned into a two hour conversation on speakerphone but it was so much fun...lots of laughing.
saturday was a real busy day starting with a bday party with 13 hyper kids all under the age of 6. but at least we got cake and ice cream right? i got to play with my neice and nephew berkekely and ellie all afternoon which was great - aren't they adorable?? (see pics above) then my family celebrated mom's day early bc we had some relatives in town...so we had dinner on saturday - i had to just eat a little bit bc i was saving room for crawfish!!
so then the crawfish boil...ben bummed a ride up to cs and back but it was good bc i hadnt seen him all year and it was good to have the company for the ride. the crawfish was fantastic and i made sure to eat my fair share and probably someone elses too. patin said i was 'a good eater' so i felt i needed to live up to my name. there were tons of people there - a lot of which i had been wanting to see and hadn't all semester so that was fun. oh and derrells new puppy is sooo cute! the highlight of the evening was either when ben jumped out the window to go get a girls number or when he was wearing a watermelon helmet that was made especially for him...yeah bringing him was definitely the right choice - he was entertaining to all. after the 3rd round of crawfish had been picked through, the boil started winding down. all in all, id say it was a huge success. the trip to cs only lasted about 12 hours or so but it was well worth the drive.
so that was the weekend...we got back by lunch on sunday but when i got home i crashed on the couch for the rest of the afternoon. i just cant handle the late nites like i used to be able to...that is so sad...when did i get soo old??
but now its monday and im back at work and so tired...mondays just have a way of doing that to me. it doesnt matter if i get enough sleep or even too much...ill still be tired just because its monday...probably bc its so far from friday. 15 days till my birthday and 10 days till kelly and christian are here, but who's counting? :)
