Sunday afternoon

Oh no! I missed a day... so I'll have to post twice in one day. Lol!

That's okay... missing yesterday was totally worth it.

I was able to pull off a surprise party for my hubby. Something that I've been wanting to do for him and it being his 40th birthday, it was the perfect opportunity to do so.

Even though I was as sick as a dog, I did everything possible to make this party happen.  No little cold... no fever... was going to stop me from doing what I had to do for my hubby.

The food was done (spiral ham and roasted chicken made by me; rice made by my mom; potato salad made by my awesome friend Lisa)... the cupcakes were cooling on the counter, I decided to take a quick nap. It was only 10 minutes but those 10 minutes really made a difference to the way that I was feeling.

When my mom arrived back with the little one from the party that they went to, it was now time to finish up all the other details for the party, like getting ready and finishing up the food and decorating the cupcakes.

Now... it was the long wait for the birthday boy to arrive.
And when he arrived, boy was he surprised!  Mission accomplished!

It was time to sit back - not literally - and watch him enjoy his night. And enjoy his night he did. He even fell asleep before everyone left, which was the cutest thing ever. LOL!

Well, since I didn't get to sleep all that great last night because of this dang cough that I have, and the fever that was waking me up... today was about trying to get better. I've already had one nap on the couch and my little one - who is also sick - has had two of them, I even think that she's going for a 3rd nap!

The hubby has taken care of his two girls, as he so loving calls us - by making homemade chicken soup. It was so yummy!

Now I'm back on the couch hoping that the soup will do it's job, while the hubby headed out to the store to get some medicine for the little one.

So ending this post here, as the little one is asking me to rub her face.
Maybe I'll be able to sneak in my second post tonight. LOL
