Alex's Birthday Weekend

This weekend was Alex's Birthday weekend, with his birthday on the 25th, it fell on a Tuesday which is pretty much the middle of the week, so he took the weekend off and planned a wonderful weekend of celebration. Friday was dinner at El Maguey or something like that and Ameristar Casino. With yummy fried ice cream. Yum! Alex ended up winning $75! Which is good cause the rest of us left broke. Then there was the museum on Saturday, which I unfortunately did not get to go to, damn work. But we are planning on going this Friday since Dustin and I are both off together again. Next was dinner at 54th Street followed by Weatherbee's for a few hours. Then on Sunday we went to the new water park up by the airport. It was lots of fun although Jenny didn't come because she was worried about bringing the baby. We got lots of great pictures and had tons of fun in the sun. It was my first trip to the pool this year which is sad because its the end of July. But hopefully we will be making many more trips to the pool before summer ends. I was to lazy to get up early and upload all the pictures from the pool so around noon or so I will upload them and set up a slideshow or something of all the pictures. However they will not be edited so they all may not look quite as good as they will later. I am awake this morning but barely. I am still coughing up all kinds of crap and there is no signs of it stopping anytime soon.

Joe actually made it out to see me for about 20 minutes Friday when we were at Ameristar. He was headed up to pick up Jason at the airport and needed to kill some time. I swear that is the only time I ever see him is when he is picking up or dropping off Jason. Which only happens ever couple of months. So needless to say I hardly ever see him. I talk to him fairly often but that is about it. Which brings me to the next person, Samantha. I have tried emailing her several times and gotten no response so that must mean she is over at Hooties fairly often. I tried calling her mom's last week and kept getting a busy signal which is odd because she has call waiting but oh well. I wanted to see how her and Bella are doing. I bet she is getting so big! I have all these pictures of Ali but none of Bella. I hate to call Hootie to get a hold of her since Dustin said he didn't seem to want to talk to him much. I don't want to get stuck in the middle of something if I don't know what's going on. I just miss her and want to see how things are going. I am going to try and email her again today and see if I can find her old email address and send one there too, but she may be to busy with Bella to get online. And then that would explain why she hasn't responded. Ugh. I feel crappy. I think it's time for some more medicine. I will post later once I get the pictures online!
