Got Plans?

There is so much coming up lately its exciting. I feel like I run from place to place as of late. Tomorrow is Bonko night. Once a year you have your turn to host, and its my turn. And like all my close friends know, I really love to throw a party. Its been challenging as we are trying to save money, but I wanted to have a theme. I’m all about themes! Really its just pink and black and white, kind of like my wedding colors but the pink is a little brighter. So I made my scotcharoos with pink chocolate cameos I molded on top. I have pink and black candy and dishes to match. I’m such a freak! But It will be fun. Luckily you are given money by everyone for the prizes. I found some really cool prizes and put them in pink and black bags with matching ribbons of course. So I’m actually excited.
But it is work. Last night I seriously did a million things, I exercised, did grocery shopping at 2 places, exercised, played soccer for an hour, called everyone about bonko (give address etc), ran things over to Jens (who is graciously hosting), and dropped Adam’s car over to Heather’s (Adam’s cousin whose hubby is going to fix the car she accidentally backed into). By the time we got home it was 10:30 PM and I still wasn’t quite done. I made the treats while I watched the finale of American Idol. It’s a nice feeling to get a lot of things done. But how do you moms do it??? I don’t even have kids yet and I’m exhausted.
Tonight I’m running to Jen’s to clean for a couple of hours, need to exercise, pick up Adam, and get all our camping stuff ready for this weekend. Thursday will be a blast but Bonko is an all nighter. Then Friday we will be shopping and planning for our campout this weekend. Oh thank heaven it’s a long weekend!
I actually only work 2 days next week as his parents are taking us to Wendover on my birthday.
Oh my seriously so much fun stuff coming up. The weekend after that is my family’s big belated Memorial Day Bash at Milcreek. So much fun. We cook all the meals and hike and play games. It seriously is a blast.
We are trying to save for a house as well and improve my credit by getting me out of debt. Oh why does everything cost so much! One day we will hopefully have it all together.
