Dad's Birthday

Dear Journal, The kids are on Spring Break and have been in their jammies all day. They played the Wii and watched TV. I managed to get some packing done and laundry while Yai is at work. Kiersten will be coming over tonight to watch the kids so we can go out to dinner to celebrate my dad's birthday. We're going to La Jolla Grill in Provo. Not too much to write about my day today, just cleaning, laundry, and packing to move into our new house next weekend. Kiersten came to watch the kids so Yai and I could go out to dinner for Dad's birthday. We drove down to Provo and on the drive Yai was talking to Paula on the phone about Pa, he has kidney failure and is in the hospital and there is more drama with Scott and Kay. They are upset that Kay isn't spending much time with Pa in the hospital. Oh the drama, so glad we don't live out there. Anyways we had a nice dinner with mom, dad, Elaine, Jeff, Les, and Bill. Pete and Suzanne had Jazz tickets and went to the game, but they had already had dinner with mom and dad at Rumbi Grill last night to celebrate. It was great to spend time with the family and to chat and laugh. After dinner we went back to Les and Bill's house for cake and ice cream. We sang Happy Birthday to Dad and he blew out his candles. We played the card game Golf for a couple rounds and then it was time to go home. Kiersten and the kids went to Neptune Park, got ice cream, rented a Redbox movie Paranorman and came home watched the movie ate popcorn and painted Jaylin and Avery's nails. When Yai and I got home they were watching their second movie Despicable Me and Skyler was asleep on Kiersten. I changed him into his jammies, made him a bottle and put him to bed. The kids slept downstairs and Yai and I headed up to bed. Kiersten stayed a little longer to watch the movie and then she let herself out. All in all it was a great day!
