Busy Bees again

I am so behind in blogging. I am behind in laundry, I am behind in working out. The Easter candy isn't really helping in that category. The front part of the house in always tidy, but the back half, mostly my room, is very neglected. I am never in it until I go to bed and I don't feel like cleaning it. The kids go to school in 8 more days so I figure I just need to hold out til then.

We had some fun this weekend. Friday we bought all the stuff for the Boy Scouts spaghetti dinner. Then we went to the movies and saw, "How to Train your Dragon". It was cute and the boys really liked it. After we got home we tidied up the house a bit because we were having a neighborhood kid party.

The party was a lot of fun. These crazy kids play together every day and organize their events all by themselves. They have nicknamed themselves the "tree kids". We made pizza and they got to roll out their dough and pick the toppings they wanted on it. After that Noah got my ipod out and started a dance party. I was laughing so hard watching these kids make up dance moves like the brain freeze. After that they watched "Phantom Menace". They took a break in the middle of that to have dessert and do more dancing. It was fun having them all over and hanging out. I really hope these kids all stay friends as they start to go through the harder parts of growing up.

Saturday was so busy. We were home for about an hour from 8am-8:30pm. We had baseball, ballet, a baptism up in Redlands and the spaghetti dinner and variety show at church. What a hassle that all was. We are very glad that it is over. Hopefully this next week we can have a bit more down time. (I don't think that phrase is in my vocab.)
