Happy Sunday

It was a pretty good weekend. My voice students had their recital yesterday and they all did such a good job. I'm very proud of them. My baby shower was last night. It was fun. My mom, Melissa and Leslie really did a wonderful job. I had a good time. I'm so grateful for all the wonderful gifts we received. This lil' lady definitely won't have to worry about clothing. We got some really cute outfits. One of the girls from my ward, Sarah, made this little bag full of little bows to go in Bella's hair. They're darling! There's all kinds of different designs and colors. I couldn't believe she took the time to sit down and tie them all! We were laughing because someone asked what to use to hold them in place, someone mentioned corn syrup and glue and Melissa said K-Y jelly...someone said that K-Y is not an adhedsive and we all busted up. My mom thought it was pretty funny. She had some choice jokes about it later. Ah, I love my mom. I was laughing because one time I found Cole (my nephew) after I'd put him in time out in my room covered in K-Y. He had dumped it all over his head and body. When I went to run and grab it from him he took off and his arm slipped right out of my hand because he was so slippery! I guess it did the job! I think everyone had a pretty good time. There was so much food left. Which was sort of okay because today was Ali's b-day and I just re-used it. Even still there was a lot left.
I hope she had a good b-day. She told me she wasn't going to do anythig for her birthday, just stay home and clean. So, I forced her to come over and have birthday dinner at my place. We don't get to eat dinner much with my parents so I was happy we could do it.

I'd been fighting a cold all week and of course yesterday of all days it won! I was feeling pretty miserable and tried to just perk up through the whole day. It's amazing what reverse psychology can do. Today I felt like absolute poop! I just hope that by tues. it'll pretty much be gone. I woke up at 3:30am because I couldn't breathe and sat down and ate some shower cake and some dipped strawberries. I had quite the little junk food feast. It was very gratifying.

Well, I'm going to go watch "Sleeping Beauty" with Joe and down some nighttime cold medicine and happily slip into a drug-induced sleep.
Bonsoir!
