My name is Jenn, and I'm a 27 year old married and babied chick. In addition to a husband, a seven year old daughter, and a five year old autistic son, I also have four cats, three hermit crabs, two frogs, a few fish, and one snorty little Pug. I work from home doing a variety of writing and even some web design. I love blogging, digital photography and web design.
My weekend absolutely knocked me on my ass. Saturday morning I was up and running on barely five hours of sleep, and I spent the day doing laundry, sweeping, mopping, vacuuming, steam cleaning, and changing bed sheets. I ran out on Saturday afternoon to pick up a small helium tank (a complete rip, by the way. It has enough helium for 30 tennis ball sized balloons, or one large Mylar balloon and six regular sized latex balloons) and another roll of blue crepe paper, and then I went over to the local grocery store to pick up the birthday cake and party platter I ordered on Thursday afternoon.
Danielle and Matt arrived right at 6:00pm, and we had ravioli for dinner and chocolate pudding for dessert. After the kids went to bed we relaxed with our laptops, while Dan played a PS2 game that Matt brought over.
Yesterday… the party! All thoughts of researching and writing about Tennessee injury lawyers and various other topics went out the window by noon, because that’s when Danielle, Matt and I took Ryan to the local pool. We frolicked in the water for about two hours, and then came back and quickly showered and dressed in time for guests to start arriving at 3:00pm.
The party went by quickly, a fun blur of squealing, running around kids, food, birthday cake and presents. Ryan loved his presents, and everyone loved the food and especially the cake.
Here are some pictures from yesterday:
I collapsed into bed by 11:30pm, and after Dan came to bed we were both out by 12:30am. I slept straight through until 9:00am this morning, but let me tell you, I still feel tired!
