summer fun

Last Saturday my not so little, little sister came to visit. She got here Saturday and left today (Wednesday morning) While she was here we had a lot of fun. It was kind of a crazy trip for her. I wasn't really ready for her to come so the house wasn't quite clean and the groceries weren't all the way shopped for, and since we had so much to do none of it ever got done. I was sad that she left this morning but glad because now I can finally get my room and other things clean. Devon went on Saturday and picked her up from the airport because I was at a primary activity - then we all met up at a sale that Chick's sporting goods was having. After over an hour, a new swimsuit and purse later. We finally made it home. We were home about an hour before we packed up and went to the beach. It was THE MOST FUN I HAVE EVER HAD AT A BEACH. There were 7 of us and Austin. Between all of us there were 3 body boards and 2 surf boards. We all just kind of rotated the equipment and watching Austin. It was so much fun. I really had a great time. I think it's the first time that I played in the ocean and didn't get rocked by any waves! Yeah me! Austin was great until about 10 min. before we left and then he decided that he had gotten too much wind, and too many different people. But for the most part he was GREAT and I had a GREAT time. I even got my sister to come out and swim in the ocean with me and I was able to teach her a little about the water so that she could have fun and not always get rocked. After we got back from the beach we ate dinner and put Austin down to bed and then Devon and I went and saw the Bourne Ultimatum, while Dee babysat. It was really nice. On Sunday we all kind of chilled. We went to church and afterward a bunch of us got together and had waffles and hung out. That night we just hung out while Devon went to a meeting. Monday we ran errands in the morning and then went to the Camarillo outlets in the afternoon. Tuesday we did the tourist thing and went to downtown LA and Hollywood. Tuesday night we had an invitation to a movie premier showing but ended up been too late. We were the next ones in line when he came and said that they were all full. SO CLOSE! But we were able to get tickets to see another movie so I went and saw Stardust - while everyone else saw the Simpsons. It's been a great week, with lots of fun, and a lot of great sales! (great except the parking ticket I got because they were street sweeping and I didn't see the sign - nice) I love it when people visit!
