Today is our party with the cousins. Liam is pretty excited. The homemade decorations didn't happen. When I went to the store to get supplies I was feverish and exhausted, and I just decided to buy party supplies. It was cheaper that way, too. And handcrafted decorations would make me happy, but Liam couldn't care less.
I still haven't thought of any games or bought supplies for cupcakes. We are low on sugar, so I can't really make them from scratch either. I did get cute pink and white stiped icing, so hopefully that will turn out. I will have to send Karl to the store for a cake mix. I am just so beat. Thank God, I don't have to work.
Yesterday, I subbed a half day at Pleasant View. At first, I was worried, but the eighth graders had just come back from lunch and were rowdy. Even the teacher couldn't get them quiet. But then it settled down and they were fairly good. Each class had a few who wouldn't hush or stay in their seat, but overall it was fine. I was talking with one student and mentioned that my kids were at Hickory Hills and Glendale, and the poor kid got embarrassed. He said, "Yeah, Pleasant View isn't very good..." I felt so bad for him. It's not a bad school at all! So I mentioned that I went to Hillcrest, and I thought Pleasant View was fine. I didn't mention that I went to Reed. LOL! But really, to be embarrassed about your school is sad. Look at me not mentioning Reed. :o). Actually, I don't remember Reed being that bad, although I don't like to sub there, much. Really, though, I have only subbed special ed and Title one reading, so that's a different group anyway.
Anyway, I need to think up a couple easy games for the party (with ages ranging from 2.5 to 10).
