6th street.....the devil!

Friday night my little family headed to Wimberley for my Dad's football game. It was homecoming so my little sister was in town - and I was happy to see her. The football game was pretty boring, The first string only played for the 1st quarter and just a few minutes into the second quarter before second string went in. We were winning 42 - 0 at halftime, so when we took the field again, the remainder of the game was split between 2nd and 3rd string. The final score was 52 - 0. After the game, we did the usual - we went to the coaches after party...I was exhausted so we only stayed about an hour. I fell asleep before my head hit the pillow!
Saturday I got up at 8 and started getting ready and everything packed for JR's company picnic. I got Landry up at 8:30. JR said we needed to leave by 9...but he didn't get out of bed until 8:45, and I was stuck waking up the Logan monster and getting him dressed. we didn't leave until 9:30 and once again I had the same talk with JR that I have everytime we have to go somewhere. He waits until the last minute to get up - he say it because it only takes him 5 minutes to get ready. I say yes, but it isn't just about you, you could pack teh diaper bag, get the bottles ready, help get the kids dressed, there are many things that could be done in order to help out. He says...yeah your right, I am sorry. But I guess he isn't really sorry, because it is literally the same thing EVERY time. Anyway, his company was celebrating 25 years so they had this get together at a place called reunion ranch in Georgetown. It was really a neat place. JR and his partner won a trophy for horseshoes, his team came in second to the Houston office in Basketball. I got to play volleyball in his place and we got the trophy by beating both the Houston and Dallas office! It was such a blast. One really cool thing was that shortly after getting there they had a kid round up....they had all these staff-members, one for every child and they came and took all the kids the the kid area. Logan got to do all this cool stuff...they had a balloon pop, an obstacle course, a maze, several play areas...Logan really just wanted to go down the slide over and over again, but it was great. I kept Landry but Logan went off with the rest of the kids and after about 5 minutes of having Landry by myself while JR played horseshoes, I was so happy to not have to deal with them both. We headed home at 2:45 and I was fighting to stay awake for the entirety of the trip. We had plans to go out that night with my sisters so as soon as I walked through my front door I went straight upstairs and took a nap! I was so tired. I got up a few hours later and started packing for the kids and getting ready. We got to my parents house about 9:00 I put Landry down and we hung around to make sure she was really asleep. Then my sisters, JR, and I climbed in our car and headed for 6th street. I have yet to conquerr 6th street...I doubt if I ever will, but we had a blast. I can't remember the last time we had so much fun without the kids. Of course, my mom offered to watch the kids and then complained the entire time...except that she did it by texting Vanessa and not me. Apparently Landry woke up at midnight and stayed up until almost 2. We went to several different bars and met up with an old friend of ours, T.j., who was in town for ACL. by that point I was DRUNK and I dont really remember it all. On the way home, I threw up - several times, then passed out. I woke up in my sisters bed and realized we must have decided to stay at my parents! LOL
We stayed at my parents until 2:00, at which point I thought I could safely travel without getting sick. We went home and I took a nap, so did Landry, Logan and JR! haha. The rest of the day was spent watching football and relaxing.
Today - I must get some stuff done for Landry's party on Saturday!!!
