Take me out to the ball game...

Saturday May 17, 2008
Saturday was pretty great. I woke up to a house full of lots of kids so that was kinda fun. And by kinda I mean fun but stressful. I ditched them all for a little bit while I went and did my run which felt good. I really wasn't feeling it but I felt pretty darn good afterward. After I came home I took the 3 little ones with me to go get my Bountiful Basket and my rice and was pretty stoked about that as I always am. Seriously- it's the best thing ever. After that I made a quick trip to the store and then back home where I made breakfast and put groceries and food away while the little ones had fun playing together and the boys were still playing X-box. Then I had to do the girls nails as promised since they would not stop bugging me about it. They were little Disney Princess press-ons and even though they were way too big for them they were so excited about them. They fell off in approximately 10-15 minutes but for a buck it was a good 10-15 minutes of fun. While I showered and got ready, Robert generously took all of them down to the park so that was nice. I got to go nice and slow and take my time and even got to read my scriptures peacefully. Of course when they got back it was a little crazy since they were soaking wet from running in the sprinklers. But I got the little ones changed and somewhat cleaned up, I made and fed everyone lunch, got everyone packed up and we left out to town. We went to my MIL's and dropped everyone off and then I took Zach and Kenzie home to their grandparents. It was fun spending time with them- I love them so much. After I dropped them off I went by Wal-Mart to pick up my MIL's Mother's Day gift that I had ordered and went back to her house. We had planned on taking her to dinner but she wasn't really in the mood so we just got her something and she brought it home. Then she baby-sat our kids while we got to go on an actual date night. Robert had won tickets to an ASU Baseball game and even though it's not something we would normally pick to do, it was free. We took or nephews Andre and Isaac since there were 4 tickets. We first stopped by Rally's where me and the 2 nephews got lunch. I don't know why Robert didn't get any. It was pretty good but a little disappointing for a free meal. We had lawn seats at the game but it was nice. The weather was perfect and it was fun watching... or being there at least. I was busy people watching and what not. We left a little early and went and picked our kids up, payed a bill and made the long trek home. After the kids were asleep we watched a bunch of episodes of Prison Break. It was a pretty sweet day.

Hey I went to that bountiful basket site and it didn't tell me how to order a basket or what have you. Can you email me what to do? I found a place right by my house to pick up at, but need to know when cause it doesn' necessarily say! Thanks...
