Such a slacker

I am totally dropping the ball on this blogging business. Ugh! I'm so disappointed in myself bc I really want this to be a way for me to record the everyday stories of my children. There are so many small details of our daily life that I find so fascinating, so hilarious, so meaningful but I never, NEVER remember to sit down at the end of the day to blog about them. So what have we missed since my last blog? Oh, just Thanksgiving, Carlos turning six months, Sophia's sixth birthday, Diego's Christmas program, Christmas, New Year's. I will do a better job. I will do a better job. I will do a better job.

Let me see what I can go back and remember....

Thankgiving was yummy. We went to Kyle to spend it with my side of the family. My cousins threw a surprise party for my uncle's 70th birthday that same weekend and all of us were WAY excited bc it was a 50's themed party and we all had to dress up. It was neat feeling all the excitement from my mom and my aunts as they planned the party. We busted out the poodle skirts, leather jackets and rolled up jeans. My sweet dad dressed up as Elvis (granted, he wore a classic 70's Elvis outfit, but we got the point!) and he looked so cute. He's such a good sport. My mom and dad were responsible for bringing my Uncle Benny in and he was so surprised. Oh, and we danced and danced and danced. It is a rare event to have Diego get worn out but we did it. Around 10:30, he stopped dead in his tracks and looked at me and said, "I want to go to sleep." For those of you who know my little Diego well- you know that he just KEEPS. ON. GOING. Here are some pics of the party.
