3 Day Weekend

Well the three day weekend came and went quicker than my normal 2 day weekend. If that's even possible...

Let me start with saying that Manuel has a new job. This job is just to hold us over until the ports pick up again... probably not for another year or two... He is working at the El Mor Toyota Dealership in Huntington Beach-- so if any of you are looking to get a Toyota, ask for Manuel, Wednesday-Sunday. He started on Friday, 05/22/09 for training. And since Friday he has sold 3 cars, one each day :] I am so proud of him! I knew he would be great at it and he seems really happy to be contributing and doing something every day. While it has the perks of $$, it still kind of sucks that Aubree and I don't see him. So far, he has worked until close pretty much every day, so by the time he gets home, both Aubree and I are passed out... BUT in the long run, all the time we missed out on right now will be worth it....

SO, I was basically a single mother this weekend :[ I missed the hubby & Aubree really missed her Daddy. Anytime she heard a noise outside she would run to the door and yell "Daddy! Daddy!" :[ I give props to all those single mother's out there.....

While Aubree is a great child she is still a booger sometimes! Haha. Saturday we cleaned and did laundry... Yeah, I know, exciting, haha, but it REALLY needed to be done. When Manuel only has one pair of boxers left I know it's been a while since I did the laundry. Haha. Sunday, Aubree and I had a playdate with a girl I knew from high school and her daughter Allison. Aubree and Allison are only 20 days apart, so needless to say, they didn't get along as well as we would have liked them too. lol Hopefully with each playdate they will get along better :] Dylan was also there at the park and it was pretty cute how he was chasing the girls around and growling at them :] Ah, my family is adorable! lol Manuel was off somewhat early Sat night so we went to dinner at Red Robin.... We went there one because it is one of my favorite places to eat, but also because we wanted to cruise the mall... Only we forgot that it was Sunday and the mall closes early... NO FUN. Sunday was hot, fun and tiring. Aubree, my mom, Hannah, my grandma and I all piled into the car and went to Disneyland. It took us 15 minutes to get into the parking structure, but suprisingly the park wasn't all that crowded... Go Figure. Disneyland was fun but we missed Daddy. Of course we went onto Aubree's favorite ride "It's A Small World" where she didn't want to get off! Literally she was kicking and screaming. All in all the weekend was good. It was nice to spend so much time with Aubree. We watched movies, read books and played with toys....

This weekend was really messed up excercise wise, so I have to get back on track this week! Gotta jump into it positively, otherwise I am setting myself up for failure!

Hope you all enjoyed your 3 day weekend :]
