Weekend Recap

On Friday my aunt and uncle and their three kids came to visit which was  a surprise especially to see my cousin who goes to school down in Cedar City with them, anyway we hung out and talked about everything and anything and we just chatted and as they were leaving my little boy cousin wanted to have a sleepover with my little brother and after the adults talked and it was decided that they were going to have a sleepover and then my other cousin was going to have a sleepover with her "big sister" from her college sorority group. With my cousin sleeping over it was a good combination because my aunt and uncle were going to come over on Saturday because we were going to make Tamales. My brother and cousin did not go to sleep until 2 am.

On Saturday we woke up early and started getting everything ready for later in the afternoon. We also cleaned the entire house because the landlord was going to visit and so we had to fix it up. We had some of our family come over like my dad's two brothers and my dad's two cousins. It was fun and very loud, but everyone enjoyed the company and everyone was eating like nothing else mattered. Then that was when we found out that my cousin Viri is engaged to her boyfriend that she met while serving her mission in the Dominican Republic which is where she is right now with her mom and her sister. They make a very cute couple anyways everyone had a great time and they all left really late so we did not go to sleep until 11:30 pm.

Yesterday we woke up at 6:30 am to get ready so that we could go sale at the Redwood Swapmeet. Which was very busy and full of people. A great surprise we got when we arrived was that right across from our spot my uncle was stationed and I think that, that might be their permanent spot just like ours is for us. It went well we did better than last Sunday but not as good as two Sundays ago. Anyway when we were done packing everything back into our van we went to the restaurant to order take out. Then we went home and ate a very late lunch but an early dinner and then my dad talked to my aunt who lives in Indiana, who by the way might come visit us in June (*fingers crossed that it does come true). Then since none of the family had made plans to get together to do a big Easter egg hunt like other years my mom and my sisters and I, we decided to make a minituarizedversion of an egg hunt in our backyards and my little 4 year old sister really enjoyed it and then we watched a Spanish soap opera which was an oldie but very cute especially for sisters since the dog talks.

The Spanish soap opera that contains a talking dog.

Anyway that was my weekend, very unproductive school work wise, however, it was a lot of fun having
family over at our house all weekend. :)

On a side note there are 11 days until I turn the BIG 2-0, I am excited and at the same time we will be celebrating my parents 21st year wedding anniversary :)
