So begins the madness

Friday:

3:00 p.m.-6:30 p.m. was spent baking 12 mini bundt cakes, 1 regular-sized bundt cakes, 16 cupcakes (from the leftover batter), and 1 chicken tettrazini.



6:30 p.m.-12:00 a.m. was spent at Rob and Cindy's for the Crew's holiday dinner. We enjoyed jambalaya, roasted veggies, "Olive Garden" soup, our tettrazini, and cupcakes. Yum!





Saturday:

1:00 p.m.-6:00 p.m. was spent at the Hayward Shoreline Interpretive Center for Mya's 2nd birthday. We got to see a little live shark and enjoyed yummy pancit, lumpia, and other unknown yummy dishes. Mya got the Dora the Explorer Toddler Helmet and Knee Pads set. Good thing I was her mom's secret santa so I knew what they wanted for Mya! After the party finally died down Lorraine, Joanne, Vangie, Cheryl, Arlene, and I exchanged our Secret Santa gifts. I got Joanne a Coach and Babies R Us GC (what she asked for). Lorraine was my S.S. so I got the Desparate Housewives Season 2 DVD (whee!!!), a program that puts your picture on postage stamps (coolio!), doggie treats and a reflective night jacket for Herc (so nice!), and an engagement gift (whoa!) It was a large version of an engagement ring that can be used as a key ring. It was so pretty and so sweet of her to do that! I also got a bday gift from Arlene. Very sweet!



7:00 p.m.-10:00 p.m. we dropped Herc off at the grandparents and headed down to Gilroy for Justin and Faye's holiday party. They live in this huge house that just makes you simply jealous! They had an abundance of food. There was turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, and so many other things. They even had baby carrots and green beans wrapped in bacon! The guys played poker after dinner while the ladies hung out in the kitchen and living room area. We did a White Elephant. We got stuck with an electric toothbrush but I'm slowly accepting it.
