Party, Party, Party....

Well, the end of May has been very busy. Logan turned 6! We can't believe it, he's gotten so big so fast. He had a wonderful birthday, but there were lots of crazy events that occurred. First I'll recap his birthday. Logan started the morning with a blue and black DS. He has to be just like his older brother.
He was really excited and then came the friend party. 10 6 year old boys and 1 girl. It was CRAZY here. Pizza, cupcakes and trampoline. What else do you need, until the boys decided to take a nature walk around the dirt bike track. A guest came back up to the house covered in mud, and then he showed us his knee. Split down to the bone. I felt terrible. Chris was here and was able to patch him up until his parents arrived. The poor thing needed 9 stitches and is on crutches. We made it through the rest of the day with no other major medical problems.

The next day was my birthday and the family party. Nothing to report on my end, it's sad how fast I've grown up (ha,ha!) Anyway the day started off busy preparing everything for the cookout. Everyone came for a picnic, birthday celebration and some quad riding. Everyone stayed around the house to ride at first, we opened presents and sang happy birthday. Shortly after Matt's mom and Grandmother left and the party opened up. Matt took the older nephews and our nieces boyfriend on their quad down the street to the trails. Until my nephew ran over the boyfriend's head with the quad. Not good, but could have been worse. Just scrapes and cuts and he was wearing a helmet, so the noggin was OK too! The party broke up after that. Anyway, those were the really terrible things that happened. I want to say overall it was a busy and really fun weekend.


The boys get out of school on June 5th, so we'll see what the summer brings. It should be interesting, never a dull moment with those 2!!! As for Mia we are all patiently waiting for her arrival. The Olympics are coming up, so things will be at a standstill in August, until they are over, and then our agency is hoping for a speedup. Also the series of destructive earthquakes has many of the orphanages unstable and they are caring for the babies in tents outside. We hope and pray that she is OK.
I'll post again in June. Happy summer!
