The kids made this "tent" yesterday, then they wanted to bring a "few" toys from the basement. A few turned into about fifty tiny toys. Kate has begged me not to take it down, so it looks like the family room disatster will to see another day. It's funny how I thought a play room would solve the messy toy problem, but the kids want to play were ever I am. They follow me were ever I go, and the toys tend to follow the kids. Hence the messy family room. I'm super excited for the kids to start preschool so that they can release some of their messy creativity someplace other than the family rooom.








This past weekend was a busy, but really fun one. Dan turned 32 on Saturday. We also had a big ward luau that night. It was fabuous. I felt like I was at an actual luau. The food was awesome, and then later they had polynisian dancers come. Dan got to go up there and shake it with them. Because of the party, with celebrated Dan's birthday Sunday night. I invited Dan's parents, and my parents over for dinner. Then afterwards Dan's siblings all came for some cake and ice cream. It was really crazy because just as everybody got here, the lights went out. Everbody still stayed, we just had to talk in the dark.








I was just thinking how quickly the year has past. I remember last year just buying a cake for Dan becauswe I was pregnant, and to sick and tired to cook. My how glad I am that I'm done with that pregnancy, and that our sweet baby is here! Benjamin will be 5 months this week, and it's amazing how quickly he's growing.
