Where did the week go?

What a week. There’s a saying we like that goes – “If you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans.” We had a lot of plans for this past week, but I don’t even know what finally became of a lot of them. Monday seemed a little warm to us. And then we noticed it didn’t get any cooler when we turned the A/C colder. Does anyone know what an A/C compressor coil is? We know now, and I can tell you that it ain’t cheap! Didn’t plan on that one. At least we got a nice little hand written note from the A/C company later in the week thanking us for our business. That was a first.

Yesterday, we took part in the parish wide rummage sale at St. Catherine’s. That was also a first and it was pretty fun! We had a lot of stuff that we didn’t use anymore and figured it was time for some spring cleaning. It was fun! Geneva and I even made some cupcakes to help draw some potential buyers – and it worked! We got a lot of traffic and it was fortunately a success. Although we hadn’t intended to actually make any money off the cupcakes, we definitely took a loss in that department. As you’ll see below, between Rafa & Gabriela sneaking off with a cupcake every now and then, Gabriela was spotted making off with some change and putting it in her pockets. Too funny. She really just loves to put things in pockets. And now that she’s seen Napoleon Dynamite, she also likes to put tater tots in her pockets too. I’ll send you a picture of that sometime too.

All in all it was a really fun day. We got to talk to some friends while we waited and the kids all got to hang around with other kids and just goof around. It was fun.

Here's Rafa taking cupcake #2 or 3.

They seemed very pleased with themselves.

Here, Gabriela found some cupcake change.
And is trying to put it in her pockets before anyone notices...

Me and Micaela hanging out.
And Geneva just hanging out too!
