Memorial Day Wrap Up

June 1, 2016

We started the last week of May with Izzy being sick!  I thought for sure she had strep or something like that  (especially cause her good friend Aubrey was battling strep) - but I took her to Dr. Farrior on Monday and both the initial strep and flu tests done were negative!

She was steady having headaches and high fever, so she stayed home again on Tuesday.  I came home at noon and relieved Danny.  She did crafts and watched some tv, while I worked and got on a few conference calls.

By Wednesday she was feeling much better and headed back to school!  That night she went to dance, and I sat in the car watching blue bloods.  Afterwards, I left to pick up Scrapbooking stuff, got halfway there and again LaJeana stood me up!  This is a nasty little pattern, but oh well things happen, I turned back home and went to get dinner done instead.  It was late, so we each did some heating up of left overs and called it a night early!

On Friday I worked until about 1, then headed home to clean up a bit.  The rain was coming down like crazy and I thought scrap booking would have to be canceled,  but Teresea came over and Margaret joined her a bit later.  We made our May layouts, and then hung out.  We picked up some Chinese food in the rain, ate dinner and just did some catching up!  The rain was perfect go to bed early weather, so we did!

Saturday morning we all got up early and headed out to Spring.  We dropped Makaila off at the CPR class she was taking and spent the next few hours driving around aimlessly while we waited on her!  We had lunch at Mamacita's afterwards.  The kids both had attitude from hell...and yet we headed home and packed bags for a random weekend adventure!




We thought about going to San Antonio and then at the last minute turned around and headed to Kemah Boardwalk instead!  We bought the girls both all day ride passes and spent the day watching them ride every single ride!  these kids are fearless.  I was amazed at the things they rode...they are most definitely braver than me!!! 

















The rode to their hearts content and had a blast.  We left there and headed over to the Monument Inn for dinner.  It was delicious!!  We stuffed our faces and then headed home to get some rest.  Our adventures would continue in the morning!  




 Sunday morning we woke up early and once again got on the road to an adventure.  This time we ended up in San Marcos. We spent a few hours shopping at the outlets, and then drove over to Driftwood for lunch at the Salt Lick!  YUMMY...after wards Izzy headed home with Sergio, so Danny and Makaila and I went back to the outlets to walk off our meal.  We found way to much stuff!  They closed at 7, so we mad ea Bucee's Pit Stop then made it the rest of the way home!


On Monday it was Memorial Day, so we were all off of work!  Izzy was out and about with Sergio, and we decided to Bar-B-Que.  We invited Ceci and Ray over and the kids too....the guys made burgers, and chicken and roasted corn, and the rest of us laughed and giggled and put together my loteria cards (that may or may not have been sitting there for a couple years).  The we did what Mexican's do best..and spent the next few hours playing Loteria!  Once again - I got whopped.  I lost my ass off...but had fun doing it...so that's all that matters!



I took Tuesday off as vacation because Isabella and Makaila both had Awards ceremonies going on that I did not want to miss out on.  At 11, I headed over to Izzy's school and saw her receive and award for A/B Honor Roll.  We had lunch and then headed home.
 I spent the rest of my day washing all her bed sheets, and then we got  a great idea and spent some time playing loteria (with monopoly money- just for pactice!) LOL.


At 5 we all got ready and headed out to Makaila's Honor Award Ceremony.


She received two awards.  One for Academic Excellence in Geometry and another for BIM.  This wraps up May of 2016.

School is out in a couple days and summer begins.  Thank you Lord for another successful school year.  Thank you that the girls made it, with only a few hiccups here and there.  Thank you that this summer is going to be fantastic!  This coming weekend we are looking forward to the District Tournament in Dallas....so prayers that this rain lets up and all this flooding comes to an end!  We have had record floods and so much damage in the Houston areas, that it is scary!  More rain is expected later this week...so say a little prayer for all those affected!  Have a great week and Happy June!

May Early Release

I think he heard me because today at lunch time I received a delivery from Tiff's Treats. It was a warm cookie delivery from Danny.  I was still mad from the conversation from last night, so I wasn't too receptive to his cookies.  While it was a sweet gesture, the fact that it was made only to appease my complaints, and feelings of loneliness, deflects from the gesture! It would have been so sweet and thoughtful if it were a sweet gesture of his own...but when its in place to fix a wrong...it doesn't do much fixin!

The next couple nights were typical, blue bloods episodes , dinner, laundry, and HIT. Oh and Izzy made us a strawberry Shortcake....


Wednesday I took a half day of vacation because Izzy had early release from school.  I picked her up at 12 and decided to check Makaila out of school too and make it an official girls Day!  It was long overdue!! We went to Olive Garden for lunch (which was delicious).  Then headed over to the movies to see the Jungle Book.  Turns out the new Show Biz in Fall Creek is much more reasonably priced then the movies at the mall!  The movie was pretty good.  After that we went to get our eyebrows threaded and then came home to get Izzy ready for her Dance pics....she looked so cute...











Friday I was off but I signed up to be Sarah's Chemo Buddy.  We spent the day at MD Anderson while she did her Chemo treatment.  Afterwards I took her by her doctors and to the pharmacy and then home.  We had a good day!  

 I got home and ate a bowl of cereal and got ready for Tony's sister wedding.  Makaila was not happy about going but oh well...we loaded up and head out!  We had a great time.  My parents came in and we all laughed and danced the night away...









 Saturday morning we got a late start, and then my parents came over for a visit on their way back home.  We lounged and then finally got moving at around 1.  I went to get a gift for Ava and we headed over to Ernie and Sarah's for Ava's 2nd birthday party!
















Izzy was crazy enough to get in the pool despite the cold and the heavy rains that came through!  

On Sunday morning, I went to church alone because Makaila went home with Alec after the party and Issy was not feeling so hot!  I came home afterwards and we went to have lunch at Tin Roof.  It was delicious!  We made our weekly pit stop into Costco and spent WAY more than planned!  We dropped everything off then headed over to my in-laws to play loteria!  We got our butts whopped!  I came home with an empty Loteria jar! I think we lost like $24...which in loteria money is a fortune! We all ate Popeye's for dinner, then called it a night and headed home !  Izzy hung at with Gordi's all afternoon, but still wasn't feeling good and by the time she got in bed, she was running a fever too!  I went ahead and text my boss to let him know I wouldn't be in on Monday! 

Let's see what next week has in store...starting with a Dr. visit for Izzy!
