Brenden was preparing canned corn for lunch today and while pouring the corn into a bowl to heat up, a few kernels missed the bowl. He muttered, "How-sten, we have a problem." I asked him to repeat himself and where he heard that and his reply was the usual answer - he read it in a book.Brenden's last day of school was Wednesday. The school had a picnic and the whole family was invited. After school, on the way out, the teachers all wear funny hats and play an instrument. I missed it because Ethan was down for a nap, but I hear from other parents that it is quite entertaining.
We had a rough couple of days getting used to our new schedule with Brenden home. He is happy to be out of school, but I think he is used to much more hustle and bustle than we are. He is a little ball of energy. Nolan is sure glad to have his big brother home to play with.
Other than that, I haven't blogged because there isn't much to blog about. We spend our days outside for the most part. I attempted to go to the high school graduation, but Ethan was in such a rotten mood, I didn't even make it through all of the speeches. Over the weekend I had my first sleepover since, uh, high school or so? Doug was gone, her husband was gone, so we got the kids together and had a slumber party. I think I might be too old for that - we were up until 4:30 a.m.

Brenden is an amazing reader with great retention and application!!!! School is out and so is seminary so now you can play and enjoy those long days of light...party on love trudy
so....were you up until 4:30 because the boys were up? Or were you two just doing your nails and watching chick-flicks??
You are never too old to have fun! And, you pinned it! I figured out the whole 'writers block' deal. It's because I am indulging the oh so missed sun and perky days! How can anybody think of anything but, when we spent so many months in utter cold. Thank you, you have shone the light of wisdom and understanding unto me!! ;)
Celeste, there was no painting involved. I guess it's just what happens when 2 stay at home moms are together without their children interfering. The kids were in bed by midnight or 1:00, except one of hers that was awake until 3:00 or 3:30.
