I started writing earlier today, but I made a good choice and decided to study instead. I am now finished my hard exams for this semester. I have 2 more exams, but one is a paper and the other is open book, so I should be fine. I’m pretty sure I bombed my English exam, but I’m hopeful about my psych. Ugh, that’s enough school talk for today. I’m studied out.
Emily’s Party was soo fun. It was a little chaotic, but I truly enjoyed it. Coco and Roxy and I stayed up until almost 2am finishing her cake. I had experimented with fondant earlier in the week, so this is what we came up with. The theme was ladybug, so Coco and I put black spots on plates and cups and lanterns and everything. They all turned out nicely. I confuse myself because I never think of myself as being domestic, but I was stinking Martha Stewart last week.
Emily enjoyed her party. She is so funny around other kids because she is the active monkey by herself, but the more kids that come into the room, the more she likes to watch what they are doing. It’s obvious that she isn’t shy. I just think she likes things her way and the is rather organized. She’s becoming rather bossy too. She’s always telling other kids what they should and shouldn’t be doing. On the weekend she even told Morgan “I’m sorry for don’t-ing”. It’s cute. My in-laws came up for the weekend, but I felt like we didn’t even see them because between being sick and Emily’s party craziness we didn’t even get much time to visit.
The gift-less party idea was a good one. We ended up being able to send a good chunk of money to our sponsor child in Uganda and Emily still got spoiled with gifts. Yay for grandparents. I think that’s a tradition that we are going to keep. Emily never even noticed that she didn’t get a whole wack of gifts because she still got some presents and she really doesn’t need that much stuff. We already have no where to put stuff. So thank you to everyone who donated towards Kwikiriza! You make a big difference!
Oh and I’m still upset that Carley Smithson got voted off American Idol last night. She was my choice for American Idol. I thought the only one I would be ok with her losing to was David Cook. He’s pretty flipping awesome. So now I’m sad, but I think she’s still going to do well for herself. She’s too good not to. Wow I’d like to kick myself in the head for being this lame. Here’s to next seasons stuff to watch!! Oh and Leesh…I think we have revertigo!
