I'm trying my best, but apparently that's not enough.

This will probably take a few hundred posts to finish all that has happened in the last few weeks, but I will do my best to condense it as much as possible, so I don't bore any of you to death. My life has been so hectic lately that I am going to have to go back in my small memory and try to remember it all.

We had a few birthday parties at the beginning of June. There was Trisha's (my neighbor) bday party she throws herself annually, really just so she has an excuse buy herself a Costco cake, with chocolate in the middle, it was evil. It was a lot of fun, The Jackson's who moved away from us in January, came to it. That was a great surprise. Then three days later McKenzie was invited to a party by a classmate. It was a pool party and she had a blast. Well then Micah decided that he was being left out of the sickie mix and got croup. It was really bad and I even took him in and he got a steroid to help him breath easier, he was miserable. This illness kept him from the next birthday party. Our next door neighbor turned 8 and had a party at the park, complete with pinata and banana splits. The girls had fun and we even brought Micah back a cupcake.

Right after that party McKenzie was invited by Jacob Jackson (who had been hanging out with his grandparents by himself for a two weeks) to go and see Horton Hears a Who at the dollar theater. So McKenzie has officially had her first date . . . at 7 years old . . . what kind of mother am I. It was soo funny. He called to ask if she could come and then later called and asked if she had lunch cuz "My Grandma is NOT buying us popcorn." I laughed soo hard, Jakey your soo cute, thanx for hanging with Kenz.
