The Car is Gone...

Yep the Mustang (not the new one) is gone...excuse me while I do a happy dance...this means that carpet is lined up and will be installed the in two weeks and by the end of July my children will have their own rooms. For Cole that is nothing new, but for the girls who have never had their own rooms, I wonder if they are going to love it or hate it?

I think that once we set up the rules of being in each others rooms, etc. it will...sigh...who am I kidding.

Anyway, the house is beginning to come together. The list is still long but at least we can now use more of the house than we have been able to before. I'm not sure if being able to finally spread out is good for our having to move or not. Hopefully we'll be able to get rid of some stuff, before we make the trek to Yakima.

It's raining again, and it's been green and beautiful, but it means the kids have been cooped-up, and we are all getting stir crazy. We are all excited for Kira's birthday party on Saturday.

Happy Birthday to ME...Kira

Today I am 9. I feel like I am older, and can do whatever I want, but Mommy won't let me. My birthday party is going to be on the 10th at the bowling alley. I am excited and I hope I get a lot of presents, especially Percy Jackson and the Olympians on DVD. But more than anything I am excited to go to dinner with my family at Space Aliens.

I have been having fun this summer, I was in a play this summer called Aladdin Jr. I had a great experience. I got to hold a life-size anaconda (stuffed animal)and sing some great songs. I made new friends and liked doing it. I really want to do it again.

I also spent a week helping out at VBS, and I had a really neat time. Even Cole got to go. I can't wait until next year, for the next VBS.

I have to go help my sister with her Dora doll, so I will say good-bye...for now.
