Full on

This weekend was pretty full on.
After an early wake-up on Saturday and a trip out to Henderson to see the launch of Silver, we rushed home to prepare the house for the onslaught of partygoers that were due later on that day to celebrate Liams 9th birthday.
Then while Andrew took Liam, Ethan and a couple of his friends to see Spiderman 3 (they met up with others at the theatre), I rushed out to do some last minute things before they all congregated back at my house. All of his pressies , other than the AFL ball that Aunty L and Uncle D got him, were Spiderman which was pretty cool. He even got us to buy him a PlayStation2 so that he could get the new Spiderman game that had just come out. We didnt realise till later that he could have played that same PS2 game on his dads PlayStation3!! Everyone seemed to have enjoyed the movie and after a lot of food and cake, we were all happy to just sit and chat amongst us adults while the kids caused havoc.
Andrew went around spraying everyones hair pink and purple, even Miss Ruby didnt escape! Unfortunately we were all too tired to grab the camera and take some shots, sorry.
There was a sweet moment there too where I was on the trampoline with Ruby and Jasper and was gently bouncing Ruby on my lap and her big bro was booinging all over the place like tigger and the giggles and sheer enjoyment on their faces was priceless. Unfortunately not priceless enough for anyone to grab the camera and take a shot or vid. Im sorry but by then we were all just so buggered!
Everyone finally left just after 6 and Andrew and I had a chance to wind down. Liam had his friends stay over as well.
Sunday was ok. My kiddies made me lovely homemade Mothers Day gifts which are way more precious than any thing they could have bought at a store. I really am the luckiest mum in the world.
ps. It was Karleens birthday yesterday and to celebrate, a few of us are off to the pub on Saturday for Ladies Nite. It includes a full buffet dinner and some nice men dancing. I will try to remember to get some photos of our night out :P
