The past week or so

So, I have been lacking on posting on here, but I have some things to tell now.
Ok so yea, my birthday was like last week. We didnt really do a whole lot. We had a little birthday party the weekend after my birthday. Not a many people showed up as planned. Friday was just a sleepover, I invited about 5 girls, only 2 made it, Morgan and Kayla. We ended up having a pretty good time though. We just ate some food, jumped on the trampoline and stayed up late. Saterday morning Kayla had to leave to go driving with her instructor, and was suppose to come back later after she was done. We had a birthday party that day or me and Lydia, her birthday is today... Still not everyone planned showed up. Austin and his parents came, it was kinda awkward actually, A friend of April's, Nici, came with her son Logan for Lydia. Morgan was still there. Kayla called and said she was going to take a nap because she was tired and come back after she got off of work. So basically no one was there. I told my mom about the party and all, she never did say if she would come or not. The party to me seemed kinda boring actually. We all just kinda sat and watched Legally blonde on tv, and talked. The kids and Austin seemed to enjoy playing with the dog. April spend most of her time in the kitchen fixing up the bread dip and vegetable tray. We all went into the kitchen and ate. Morgan and I got bored, so we went out on the trampoline, Austin joined shortly after. We went back inside and had the cake. Lydia had a disney princess cake, and mine was just an ice cream cake. Lydia opened her presents and played, I had some just didnt think to open them. Austin and his parents had to leave to go pick up the neice and nephews. I then opened my presents. That was basically the party. KInda boring....
A few days later I talked to my mom online, she said she was planning on coming, but they all got busy over at the place in Peoria. We talked for awhile I cried, Im really missing her. I dont get to see her much now.
On wednesday, I got online and was able to talk to her again. She said she had my birthday present for me. She got ahold of my brother Chris to see if he could take me out there. She isnt suppose to drive right now. I told her to do it Thursday because I had to get ready for church and all. So yesterday Chris came and picked me up and took me out to see her. I didnt get to stay long, I only got to visit with her about 15 mins. at the most.This was my first time seeing her since Valentines Day. I was hoping they could just drop me off and then come get me later, but they didnt have the gas to do that, but later this coming week, if they get some gas money, they are going to take me and drop me off. Not being able to see my mom as much is kinad difficult. I almost cried when we left because I didnt want to leave yet.
My moms health isnt really the best right now. Back in Febuary, she went into the hospital because her feet and legs were really swollen and she couldnt really feel one of her legs. They found she has a clot in her foot and the back of her leg. She went to the doctor 2 weeks ago and they said the clots are going down with the meds they have given her. She went back yesterday but Im not sure what they said, I havent got the chance to talk to her and ask her yet. But she showed me her foot yesterday, and you can see a big bump on the top of her foot, and its where the clot is. It looks really bad. She has lost some weight too. Not sure if thats good or bad right now. But yea, that about all the things that have been going on right now. I will try to update a little more often, and when I get a chance.

Final Grade

So I check the school website to see if they have recieved my last 2 exams in Plaaning you Career's class. Well They did and they got them graded. I got a 100 on the both of them. They also have my final grade for the class. I finished the class with a 97 A! I think it was Awesome! I dont think I have ever had a final grade that high in any classes I have ever took.

Mud

Shalyn and Niki came over and are staying the weekend. Me and April came up with the brilliant idea to let all the kids go outside and play in some mud since it is really nice outside. Well we took some pictures of them. Shalyn had the most mud on her, and suprisingly Lily was the cleanest.






This here is jut the beginning of them playing.









Here they are a little dirtier. As you can tell Lydia's pants are a little big on her.

Shalyn playing in a big bucket of mud








Shalyn and Lydia sitting in the mud









Lydia and Shalyn showing us the mud on there hands







Niki showing us her dirty hands





Lily and the mud on her hands



Shalyn wanted a mud mask, so I gave her one








Niki wanted one too







Shalyn was pretty much caked in mud on her legs. She had a little difficulties keeping her pants up.








Same as Lydia, just not nearly as much on her legs







Lily didnt seem to like the mud so much.




Lily started to get cranky because she didnt have her nap yet, so we started with her and stripped them down at the front door and stuck them all in the shower to get cleaned off, Lily we put into the kitchen sink because she doesnt like showers.
So that was basically how things went today...
