hectic weekend

It was a pretty crazy weekend...we had people over every evening but it was heaps of fun too. Friday morning the team had a big meeting so I watched all of the kids along with another girl who is almost 14. That went really long and was pretty exhausting so we came home and took naps because Friday evening we had a family over who is actually from Jordan...well the husband is from Israel...so that was really cool to interact with them some. They all pretty much spoke a little bit of English...Jay is helping him with his English. Saturday we were preparing most of the day for the Passover dinner that we were guna have that night. That was really awesome cuz I have never participated in anything like that. Some of Kim's classmates came over who live in Israel and have celebrated this before (some were Jews believers I think). I really enjoyed that however I found myself wishing that the night would end because I had begun to get a soar throat and my head was hurting due to a lot of noise from the kids and just all of the activity. It was still fun though. Also, right now the team's head guy and his wife are out because the team is trying to get things finalized on a building they are trying to create and just different things that require everyone to be here in person....so Sunday night we had them over for dinner and they didn't leave till pretty late as well. So it was crazy but still good all in all! I have enjoyed watching the boys while Jay and Kim have had company that they don't necessarily want interruptions happening every 5 minutes, hehe. It has been great having two little brothers around and they seem to like me and listen to me well so that is encouraging :) Just the other day I played "SpiderBat" while Justice was "SuperCrush" and Salem was "SuperMan"...haha it was Awesome. The boys love to wear costumes and Salem is in them more than regular clothes pretty much. Well we couldn't really find one to fit me exactly so I had the spiderman costume tied around my neck and the batman head mask/cape on my head. I looked pretty rad I must say. This week should slow down a little bit here pretty soon but with the things the way they are in regards to the project it may be a bit before it is really normal...and then again who knows if that'll even happen with baby Aden coming!!!!!!! I can't wait!
