Beer Pong Anyone?

I would categorize this weekend as one of too much socializing for Bobby and I and not enough sleeping. On Friday, we ventured over the hill to visit Eric and Courtney who were down for the weekend from SLO. Chris and Camilla joined us. We ordered in upscale Chinese and hung out. It was so great having the 6 of us together. Such a rarely since Eric and Courtney made the big move up North. They have decided to stay for good. They listed their Studio City house and will be looking for a new house up there once theirs sells. They are also in the process of selling their Jonathan Club membership (fortunately to our friends Tyson & Yvonne) and joined a country club up there. Booo hooo for us, but we are happy for them.

Which brings me to our next big news. Bobby and I have our final interview with the Membership Committee of LA Country Club on 5/17. Assuming we don't do anything stupid, we should be official once we write that astronomical check! All jokes aside, I am happy for him since this is something he has wanted his whole life. He deserves it.

Back to Friday night, we were so caught up in great conversation, that we lost track of the time. We didn't get home until 1 am. Of course Cael wouldn't cut us a break and woke and the ripe hour of 5:40 am.

Saturday was the typical running Caoilin to French class and doing errands, just at a much slower pace since we were dragging tail. The day flew and before we knew it, we were headed to Brooke & Jimmy's to celebrate Teri & Jimmy's birthdays. The weather was great. The kids had a blast! Bob then kicked everyone out at 8 pm sharp! Somehow during the night, Bobby had decided to invite people over to our house to play beer pong. Say what!?! For those of you not familiar with Beer Pong, it is a drinking game. I somehow got coaxed into playing 1 game while we waited for Chad and Cara to arrive, but on the contingency that I didn't have to drink. Bobby had to drink all of mine for me. And I, being wise, turned in at 11:30.

I was awoken at 2 am to find 3 blind mice (I mean Bobby, Patrick and Chad) searching the house for Cara. Apparently, she had snuck out and disappeared. Fortunately, everyone had cabbed to the house and didn't drive. Danny slept on the couch. I am sure he loved being woken at 6:45 to 2 amped and ready kids! I let Bobby sleep in and nap, because he had to be hurting. He managed to buck up and join us for breakfast before I took Caoilin to swim class.

That evening, we biked to our favorite place, Pitfire Pizza, for dinner with Rodger, Dena & Cael's BFF (for you old folk, that means "best friend forever"), Clay. Dinner went pretty smoothly given the fact that we had 2 ever restless almost one-year-olds and a jabber jaws 4-year-old. Not a lot of meaningful adult conversation transpired there. Fortunately, we are catching a Dodger/Tigers game with them on 5/22 . Of course we will all be routing for the Tigers!

Cael, having skipped his 2nd nap, went to bed a little early and we snuggled in to watch "Princess & the Frog" with Caoilin. A first time for me and Bobby. Cute movie.

Another nice weekend and another sad Monday. Although, next weekend is going to be another exhausting one with Cael's birthday (and 2 other birthday parties in addition). I am trying to figure out how I am going to make it through without gaining 20 lbs from all the eating!
