At least it ended well

So last night we had dinner guests, nothing fancy, just my parents and brother. I grilled salmon, YUMM. even my anti-fish eating hubby ate some, with no tartar sauce and no complaints. :o)  Family left around 11pm, Tim tucked Drew in, my brother was "chosen" to tuck the girls in. I crashed after they left. All was good, my house was clean, including patio! and I was content.  Awoke this am to a cranky husband who upon his waking discovered that Tori had thrown up in the night, but didn't wake (HOW?!!) so he bathed her, and stripped the bed, I got the other 2 small ones up and kept them out of harms way. I then got the room wiped down and airing out while Tim made a yummy breakfast. scrambled eggs, bacon, toast, and mimosas for he and I. MMMMmmmmMMMM.  Tori declared she was hungry and felt fine. So we let her eat. She ate an entire egg burrito no bacon. Who knows what made her sick, only once. But it's over.  After giving breakfast a chance to come back to get us, and knowing it wouldn't, we dressed and went to the Aquarium of the Pacific, our favorite local "hangout" other than the parks in our city.  Katie was whiney from the start! UGH!  we did sharks and rays(Tori, Beth, Drew, and Tim touched Katie couldn't get herself to do it), seals and sea lions,  california reef, then ICE CREAM to celebrate Tori's bday in June (she got a card from the fish which included a free ice cream). That was an adventure and a half. Drew did ok with my help (I held it for him), Katie needed help, but wasn't up for listening to directions, the other two were fine. After wearing/eating our treat we went to the outside viewing of the seals and sea lions then headed home.  I've finished laundry and packed Tori for camp, now I'm off to make her and Katie's beds and then help Beth pack. Both girls leave tomorrow at 9am for GS camp. Tori for 4 days, Beth for 8. I'm gonna miss them!!! But am sooo excited for them!!!  Well, the beds won't make themselves...darn it.
