crazy lovely weekend

i knew it was going to be hectic and i was ready for it... but what i wasn't expecting was that i would enjoy it so much.

friday i had the relief society dinner in my ward. it was so much fun...

i had spent all day making the favors and making the dessert.

i know the presidency had been stressing about that activity, but everything turned out so good, better than anticipated. all the sisters joined in the fun and everyone came. fantastic!

saturday morning we had to stop by the library, stop by the insurance place to sign a couple of things and then we had the McLean yearly Christmas Lunch at the Old Spaguetti Factory.

it was so much fun. and of course all the kids were the ones that loved that the most.

we had thought of going to a movie after but decided to come home and sarah cut evan's and carmen's hair.

carmen looks so cute it is unbearable!

the whole fam was home with us. some people watched "inception" while other people enjoyed watching sarah's talent in action :D

sunday church was good. i am sad we're going to miss the primary party and the ward's Christmas party... so we said bye to our friends till the new year.

we had the elder's for dinner and laura too.

i made bbq ribs and chicken, spinach salad, rice, and buns... pumpkin pie for dessert ( this one i bought).

it was gooooooood.

today i had some spending money fun.

i was getting my hair cut so sarah and i went to get me a new hair dryer and difusor and some hair products.

we dropped off books at the library, got myself a new N ( why would anybody steal it!! they are free! this is the second time it happens to me!) and then i got a new pair of jeans.

i kept the lady helping bring me the right sizes and styles. sarah kept saying:" we really made you do your job"... i don't know if she was happy about it or annoyed... either way, i am happy with my new pair for jeans.

so we got home, i made lunch, sarah put sloan down for a nap, i went to get carmen at school, my friend paula from chile gave more cloths for carmen, came home and got a package waiting for me. our blue ray dvd player!nice. evan left right away to his study group, i finished another two loads of laundry and got my hair cut.

it is lovely.

i love it.

i know i always say my hair looks better when i get it done in spain, but sarah did it awesome.

i am finally free of the dye in my ends. i am keeping my virgin hair intact. no more coloring.

laura came to pick them up shortly after, so we said our goodbyes. i tried to get adriel to stay and live for us forever, but he said he'd miss his mom. sarah said she would miss him too so the all left.

i finished the washing finally! and made dinner, ate and had the treat before the fhe. we saw a christmas video and sang some songs. had family prayer, and bed time. isabel stayed with me and we watched some more Christmas videos and i cuddled with her, sang to her and she fell asleep on my arms.

she is the cutest baby.

so before i started cleaning up the kitchen i wanted to sit in this silent moment and blog about my crazy lovely weekend.

my hubby called to tell me he'll be here in half hour, so i will go clean now and when he gets here we'll probably watch a movie all cozy in our bed.

good night!
