Day 189

Today is the day of the party. I am expecting 25 people to be there Keith says it is not a small party his idea of small is only like 5 people. I hate to tell him but to keep it at only 5 people we would not be able to invite his family or all of mine that are close to Ethan. We only have close people there, The guest list is
My Dad
My Grandma (Dad's Mom)
Aunt (Dad's Sister)
Uncle (Dad's Brother)
Sister and her Husband and 3 boys
Brother and his 3 girls
My Mom
My Grandma (Mom's Mom)
Keith's Mom and Step Dad
His Sister and her Boyfriend
His Aunt
Then my Friend and her 2 boys 
So the total is 15 Adults and 8 kids Not counting Keith Ethan and I, I think that is good there are so many more people I was going to invite but held off due to space. Last year I invited over 100 people to his party and most of them said they were going to come then we had a huge snow storm and had to postpone the party and then not everyone was able to come. So 25 is a small group if you ask me, I come from a HUGE family, My mom has 11 Brothers and sisters. (One passed away at birth) and they all have kids who have kids. My grandma has over 70 grandchildren so I am used to BIG numbers for weddings and other types of Parties, Keith comes from a SMALL family his dad is an only child and his mom only has 3 brothers and sisters and they only have like 7 kids total and they do not invite each other to parties like my family does.
I think this will be the LAST year I have the party at our place though, I wanted it to be spotless and that meant I took several days to dust and wipe down everything. I think from now on we will just get a hall. I will post pictures later and add more to my already long blog I just wanted to get it started because I am not sure if I will be on later or not. I have a good bit to do before the party and then I will need to clean after everyone goes home and then I MIGHT nap depending on how well I sleep when I get home in an hour.
Now I have to go do my shift report and the Audits and everything before my shift is over and be ready to run out the door when the next girl gets here. I stand and talk MOST weekends but today I just cannot, I need some sleep and I have a lot of stuff to pick up before the party.
I went on a long hunt for canned chicken and could not find any so I had to change what I got and got stuff for sloppy joes. I picked up the cake and was NOT happy about it at all it is NOT what I wanted. Then I went home and get stuff ready for the party, It lasted longer than I thought it would be we had fun. Ethan thought it was funny that we sung to him. I am going to add a picture of his cake even though I hated it. And one of him laughing because we were singing and maybe one other.
