Embassy Suites

So I need sleep but instead I wanted to write on my blog! My friend’s daughter turned 8 and they gave her a slumber party at Embassy Suites in Parsippany. I took my cousin’s children—Richard Jr who is 10 years old and is Richard Sr’s child and Alexis who is 5 years old is Alex’s child. This was the first time I've ever been allowed to take Alexis by myself. Her mom is very overprotective. I was afraid that she was going to give me a hard time because well, she’s a little spoiled by her mommy. And since I’ve never had her over before, I was unsure what to expect. But Alexis turned out to be spectacular. She was an absolute doll and everyone loved her! The only thing I had trouble with was getting her to eat. She was unhappy with it all—and they had scrambled eggs, sausage, bacon, pancakes, fresh fruit, yogurt, jello, Danish, Froot Loops. She took a couple bites of everything but ate nothing. Now I know what a pain in the a@@ I must've been as a child. I have the reputation for being the worst eater in my family. I guess I now pass the torch to Alexis. Richard, was an absolute horror! OK I’m exaggerating. He lives with me and there are no other children in the house and he rarely gets to play with children. So he was sooooo hyper amongst the children. I guess he was just letting out all that pent-up energy. All in all, the kids had a good time. The adults needed naps. The hotel is spectacular. The breakfast was great. And although they had beautiful little samples of shampoos, conditioners, hand lotions, and nice plushy towels—what is that I couldn't resist?? That’s right all—the darn pen with the Embassy Suites logo. I told you all I had a problem. LOL
