It's been a crazy week here

Saturday was Kimmie's 4Th birthday party. Almost everyone we invited came and the kids all had a great time. We all got together at the park where the kids had plenty of room to run and play. We barbecued and had games and cake. Then Sunday we had another birthday party to go to for one of Kim's friends. By the time we got home from that party Kim was tired and crabby and was asleep for the night by 6:45.

Tuesday was Kim's actual birthday and we spent part of the evening visiting with my mom as she had been in Spokane and missed the party.

Then Wednesday night we had our wrap up party for Relay For Life at the water park. I got off work early and we headed over. Kim had a blast. She actually came out of her shell quite a bit and hit the slides. She even drug me up the three flights of stairs to ride in the big tube slides. We got in the raft and headed into the tube. I could tell she was a bit scared so I kept reassuring her that it was OK and it was fun. When we got to the bottom she looked at me and said "that was really scary mom, can we do it again!" So up the stairs we went again.....and again....and again. Of course when it was time to leave there are a big fight.

We are looking forward to the long weekend of just kicking back and getting ready for school to start on Tuesday. Kim is starting Preschool at the Christian Academy and is very excited.

Sounds like fun - the party and the slide. How did the birthday kit go over? Also, want to say to Kim, "Have fun at your new school! You will have lots of new friends to play with. How exciting!"
