Gosh, so much to catch up on. Where do I begin? I'll try to go in order. First I told you about going to the mountains and we went and it was extraordinary! We all had a blast and I got to see it snow in like three different ways. It snowed like rain and then it snowed like hail and then the most beautiful snow was the light flakes that gently flowed through the air to a soft landing. Amazing beauty in every phase! Although I had a great time I was worried about making it on time to the Senior Valentine Party. I had to make the cupcakes in the mountains because I knew I would not have time when I returned on Thursday. I made 74 cupcakes and then stressed about how in the heck I was going to get them home in good condition. We had a truck load with all are gear and luggage and there were four of us in the truck so I put the cupcakes in big ziplock bags and then put them into a duffle bag. I was in the back of the truck with Brandy and we had pillows between us so we propped the duffle bag with cupcakes on the top. Let me tell you I held on to that bag all the way home to make sure they didn't fall. I was all ready, showered and dressed at 5:30a.m. in the mountains so all I needed to do was get all the party items loaded in the truck and go. Long story short I made it in time and the party was a huge success! The next day was my Nephew's preschool class to make Valentines for their parents. So, that would be today February 12, 2010 which would be day 22. I don't know how else to put it but to say that it was priceless! The kids were all so excited and behaved very well and had a great time making the magnet hearts. I had extras so I was excited that they let me do them with another class of older kids. They were a hoot! I nick named one of them motor mouth cause he was just a talkin away! By the end he called himself motor mouth. Too cute!I had enough for them to make all the teachers one and it was pretty neat that they all had a different teacher in mind that they wanted to make one for. It was a perfect day at the preschool! Whew, okay there's more. At 2:00 p.m. the Senior Center was having a Valentine Dance. So, I was babysitting my nephews and I asked my Husband if he could watch them for a bit so I could go to the dance. He said sure! So off I went. This is where a perfect day gets even better. These Seniors were dancing away and line dancing and salsa dancing and even disco dancing! I had to get in on the fun and I have to admit I danced and I danced and I soaked in every minute of my surroundings. I took lots of pictures and made some new friends. After the dance I went to my nephews baseball practice and watched till they were done and brought him home till his Dad picked all three of them up. Can you say tired? Yes. But would not trade this day for all the money in the world!!! Tomorrow off to another Senior Center in Riverside to play bingo with my 89 year old friend Sara. peace out, Tina
