Babysitting/ Jaxsons 10th Birthday/ Trafalga/ Rainstorm/ Airport/ Pulled over/Stake conference/ Stake Presidents/ Does this title have to many slashes

so this last weekend i got the oportunity to babysit my third oldest sisters four oldest chilren when i got to they had posted all these signs on the door saying welcome ashley is was so sweet it also turned out to be the the second oldest childs (a boy) birthday on saturday so we got all ready and headed out to trafalga it was the cheapest way i knew how to give him a really fun birthday of course we let him make every decision down to who would sit where in the car when we got to trafalga we started with the xd theater and then off to mini golf we were having the grand re-opening of our batting cages at trafalga so we had the owls (a baseball team) mascott hoots come out and while talking to my sister on the phone he came up to us and stole my phone and hung up on my sister this was afer he kicked my ball so i would have a very bad shot while golfing the oldest (a girl) whose golfing name was tiger woods was the only one to get a hole in one unfortunetly that was her only tiger like moment and she ended up in third after golfing (i came in first of course) we did another xd ride in which hoots the owl snuck in in the middle and scared the crap out of me we then went to do the go-karts the birthday boy was not tall enough to ride but i pulled a couple strings and got him on so i drove the youngest (girl) the oldest drove her younger brother and the birthday boy dove his own pink car the pictures while in the go-karts were not easy to take but a lot of fun to try once go-karts were done (i won of course) we got some food yummy hot dogs and chips and soda and tummy yummies which are a kids drink we were giving away for free that day mainly it is jut very surgary water then we did the batting cages
i had never done them before and was surprised that i wasnt half bad at that time
hoots the owl came back and stole my camera charming creature then we went over to mix 107.9's booth they were doing a remote and were give stuff away we played a been bag toss (i won of course) we all got cds i got taylor swift and the second youngest (boy) got pink it was so funny we then went inside and rode the xd again after we played in the arcade and then the xd one last time we then went outside to leave and found it pouring rain this was like walk outside for less then a second and be soaked to the bone type of rain it was so cool and this was after golfing driving and batting in the sunshine well when we got home i made a cake for the birthday boy we ran out of icing to i had to use pink on half of his name he called his parents while opening his present then he tried to blow out his candels it was so funny cause i put trick candels on so he would blow one out then another would pop on after that i had to pick my sister up from the airport and of course i got pulled over on the way over going 70 in a 50 and of course i didnt get a ticket the next day i amazingly got four kids ready and out the door by eight in order to be at my parents ward by nine (an hour early for stake conference) my dad got called as steak president the poor guy he was just a bishop and he really wants to go on a mission but i know he will be great because that is just what type of guy he is me and my sisters played board games that night and then me and the kids made the long trip home (30 minutes is long when you are tired and want to go to bed) it was a fun weekend i love babysitting those kids we always have fun my only regret is that we didnt get to play hide n' seek in the dark
