Never a dull moment!

So we had the kids' birthday party on Saturday. Oh man, was it hot! I don't know that we'll be doing another outdoor b-day party unless water activity is involved. Whew! The kids had a good time, even if the adults felt like they were melting.

The cakes were gorgeous. Nana did an amazing job. Logan had a Star Wars The Clone Wars cake, and Colleen had a Disney Princesses cake.


The kids played on the playground until it was time to have cake and open presents.






Then, there was Sunday....

Patrick had a bike race, and I had to be at church from 7:45AM until after noon. I knew that would be a long day for the kids and for me trying to get them moved back and forth to their classes and such. So, Patrick dropped them off with Carly and Nathan for the morning.

Youth Sunday was wonderful! The youth did a fantastic job. While I was at Carly's picking up the kids, I got a phone call from Patrick saying he wrecked and needed stitches. So, I got the kids back out of the van and left them at Carly's and headed over to Walnut Creek Family Practice to meet Patrick. He ended up needing seven stitches on a pretty nasty gash. It hurts him to bend it, so he hasn't been doing much in the way of movement. Ibuprofin is his new friend.

Speaking of sore, I've been getting up at 6AM for a run/walk. I'm training for a 5K in August, and it's in a pretty hilly area. I've got to get a handle on these sore legs and get used to hills, otherwise, I'll never make the 5K.

We don't have anything big planned for the summer. Mainly we are just planning on hanging around home. I'm looking forward to a summer at home with my family.
