This weekend was LOOOONG, but man was it fun! Saturday we hosted a baby shower AND an early Cinco De Mayo fiesta...it was pure chaos at the Casa de Cline, but holy carne asada batman, we had ourselves a good time. Good food, good friends, and ice cold Jarritos makes for one heck of a fiesta! And of course my camera died an hour into the festivities, but I managed to scramble together a few photos...

Cinco De Mayo 2010 was a major success at the Casa de Cline. The Little Miss is the only one who missed out because she SLEPT through the ENTIRE party! That's right. But she woke up at 3 AM bright eyed and busy tailed ready for the day...joy. As far as Sunday goes, well...lets just say that eating 4 churros wasn't the best idea, but man, did they taste good.
I love my dogs, truly I do. Despite the chronic hot hole that's stained my carpet, the chewing that's claimed many a toy, the insane vet bills, and the piddling contest they had all over the house (so glad the puppy stage is over!)....I still love those mangy mutts. I've even turned a blind eye when they've taken the food right off of the kids plates. But this time they've crossed the line...
Here's a little background info...I'm done having babies. No more getting knocked up. Never again will I be heavy with child. No bun in this oven...unless it's cinnabon. So I've been busy cleaning and sorting through all the baby items I'm parting with since like 8 of my friends are currently gestating(and so we can reclaim our garage). I cleaned, scrubbed, sorted, everything was ready to go....so what did the dogs decide to do??? EAT THE FRIGGIN HIGHCHAIR!! Which was in perfect condition, by the way!! I could have murdered them! I may as well have just burned a stack of twenties!!
However...they're just so stinking cute! I can't stay mad. Bruiser walks around with his Foofy and Buhby all day and Sampson thinks he's a lap dog and literally sits in your lap. They're a bunch of teddy bears. Plus they let me take crazy pictures of them and they LOVE IT! And smart too!! I taught Bruiser how to hit the light switch today. BOOYA! Maybe tomorrow I'll teach him how to bring me the diapers and wipes! And who needs to mop when you have 2 dogs...I just let them clean it up! Hooray for laziness! In fact I don't even have to get up to open the sliding door for the dogs...they're very independent, just watch the video! Now if I could only get them to learn how to rub my back, life would be gooooood. So despite the fact that they just cost me a pretty penny...I'll let it slide today...but so help me if those dogs crap out plastic in my house....they're goners!
Boosa & Sang Sang on Cinco De Mayo! Ole!
Sorry for the crappy video...I only had my normal camera...and wow, it is a pain to download!!
I've always been so proud of my ethnic background (El Salvadorian/Mexican baby!)...so on days like Cinco De Mayo I absolutely loooove celebrating! But come on, who am I kidding...I'll take any reason to par-tay! We had an awesome night full of good food and good times. We were Livin La Vida Loca fo sho! You can't tell by the photos but we had a housefull!! At least a good thirty people....ay que loco! The kids had a blast bludgeoning the pinata, playing in the jumphouse, and shoveling candy into their mouths, while the grown ups chowed down on some home made carne asada, arroz, y frijoles...topped off with some grubbin churros and yummy margaritas (don't worry...they were virgin!). Muy delicioso!! Everyone had a great time and we are so thankful for the friends and family that came out to celebrate in true Cline fashion...My personal favorite moment of the night was being able to wear an awesome "stache"! Man, I wonder if everyone's gonna have gas from the beans?! Good thing my hubby's passed out on the couch with the dogs! I'm already excited for next year...maybe we can get a mariachi band! Here's a few snap shots of the night! Ole!
