By the way---Swine flu/Shmine flu!! I know some people have suffered with this virus but for us we were lucky and it was Wimpy, Wimpy, Wimpy. I guess it still could bite us in the butt but we'll cross our fingers and believe that we're done.
Kyle got to have a birthday party with friends this year and he was so excited. He decided on a pirate theme. We had a cannonball pinata (soooo not worth it to make at home), Treasure Chest cake, Pin the flag on the treasure map, and a treasure hunt. Josh was a great help and Katherine felt as big as the guests. We loved that we had to convince him to invite some boys. Kyle is quite the ladies man and keeps finding new girl friends at school. I love it.
Everyone deserves cool uncles like our Uncle Brad. He took the kids fishing at Salem Pond while Jeff was away. Joshua is one determined focused kid and finally caught a fish before we had to leave.
