Last of the catching up:)

December 31 - My mom and my sister came down and took us out to lunch then we dropped Jenalyn off to her dad's. In the evening, we drove to San Diego to his mom's house and we spent new year's eve there.

January 1, 2009- Woohoo... New Years Day! We went to Legoland! Boy is this place expensive! My mother in law was nice enough to pay for one person in each family so that was cool. It was busy but not like disneyland busy.. It was suuppperr cold though. We had lots of fun.

In the morning we cleaned and reorganized the kids stuff. Then we out to lunch in Cerritos with James's family. After eating we got tired and went home to take a nice nap. In the evening we went to Jasmine and Tony's house for a surprise birthday party and to pass out christmas gifts. The kids had soo much fun there that when it came time to go home they wanted to sleep over! James was not ready for them to sleep over there though..heeehee

I picked up Jenalyn from her dad's , dropped some stuff at goodwill them we just chilled at home. In the evening me and my girls went over to my friends house for a christmas party. Being a lagger for everything I was rushing out the door because I had planned on meeting my friend Meg at the Ralph's in Diamond Bar so we could buy some stuff for the party. Well I got in the car and there was hardly any gas but I was like, ugh.. I think I can make it to Diamond Bar so we leave and we have not left our block and the light was already on but I hop on the freeway any and we exit Diamond bar blvd. cause there is a gas station there, so I ask Jen to give me my purse and she tells me it's not here so I start asking her for her purse cause I know she got a lot of money for Christmas and she tells me she did not bring it!! So then Jaylene my 6 year-old goes "mom I brought my purse and it has money in it!" I grab for her purse and sure enough she had $25.00 in it! I borrowed $10.00 for gas. We finally got to Ralph's and Meg was nice enough to pay for everything we got for the party!

The party was fun, I got to see a lot of people that I have not seen in a long time...

James took us out to 2nd street in Long Beach for come Crab Pot.

We walked around and bought some candy at this cool candy shop. It carried a lot of the old skool candy you can't find any more it was like walking down memory lane. Then James took us to CSLB so he can show the kids where the pyramid was and where he went to school. When we got home I left to Baldwin Park to pick up my sister so she can spend some time with us before she goes back to school.

I took the kids to the mall so they could spend their christmas money and gift cards. It was soo packed the little kids (Jaylene, Jarred and Nolan) and I ended hanging out on the couches waiting for Jenalyn and my sister to finish. We stayed at the couch for an hour because I left my phone at home so I could not call them. When they finally arrived Jen handed me a bag and it had a black wallet for me! They said they went to alomst every single store looking for it and they finally found it at the last store they went into. My sister even paid for some of it! awwww... how sweet is that!!!

We stayed home all day then in the evening James and I took the kids to my mom's house and we went out on a very much needed alone time. We ate at HOOTERS, the garlic shrimp there is da BOMB! Then we went to Best Buy and Barnes & Noble. Can I just say that I really love hanging at the bookstore I can stay there for hours!

Looking back....

I'm goign to start blogging from Dec 24th until the present day.. so bear with me :)

December 24th- The kids baked cookies during the day and we chilled at home wrapping the last bunch of gifts.

Then off to my grandparent's house where we exchanged gifts and played games. One of the games James and I where soo close to winning was Taboo but my cousin decided to put a little twist and have the partners switch places so James was guessing the word and I'm giving him clues. Well he sucked at guessing the word but we had lots of laughs!

(Photos from top to bottom: Grandma, my mom and her sisters. Uncles playing the one handed gift wrapping game. Jarred opening his gift from Evan. Me and my cousins.)

December 25th- Woke up and the kids opened all there gifts.

then we went to church. We dropped Jenalyn off to her dad's house then we went to James's Aunt's house. I was soo tired from the night before I did not take a lot of pictures:(
