Well, we are trying to get things back to normal here - what is normal? I'm working on Broadway Night costumes for the kids and - oh yeah - Reid and I too! I am making a bunch of small aprons, chef hats, lion tails, etc... I really having fun with it, but it sure is busy. I need to make sure my costumes are ready to go as well. The big day is June 6th, so it's coming up fast! Hopefully the kids will learn their songs well.
Kim did her Groovin' with the Grimms performance last week and did a great job on her solo. If I can get on the ball I'll post it on here later. She also had a BLAST following a 6th graders around for a day at the middle school. She was thrilled that some of the 7th graders told her she would be fine because she was "cool". She is taking great care is what she is wearing, etc... so I suppose she'll fit right in! I think it's a great way to get kids excited and ready for middle school.
Eric had a small birthday party with 3 of his friends and their younger siblings this week. It was probably the easiest party I've ever done! We met at Burger King, got kids' meals and the kids played for a while. They brought us chocolate pies (the cupcakes were still frozen because some employee forgot to take them out) and we sang Happy Birthday and he opened presents. I paid Burger King and we left. He was thrilled to play with his friends and my house didn't get messier in the process. Fun times!

May is BUSY!
Well, we just had Eric's birthday last week. He had a great day. He got some Legos, a slinky dog, a Nerf gun, and Lego Batman. He was in heaven and didn't want to go to sleep that night because he was so excited about his presents.
Jessica is a funny girl. She loves to play food with her dolls and stuffed animals and likes to set up all the Little People. She annoys her brother constantly and thinks it's rather funny.
Kim is getting ready to leave elementary school. She is excited about her musical performance this week and also Broadway Night in June.
Abby is Abby. Always setting up something in her room. She had a store all set up and ready to go until I broke it to her that we were not going to be allowing strangers to come into her room to buy things from her.
I am done with the school auction. We raised about $6,000 - the only fundraiser of the year to actually bring in what was budgeted. It was a lot of work, but I've only heard good things about it. I will not be doing it next year, so I still have to get a detailed binder together with all the info that I've been storing in my brain. Now on to Broadway Night!
Reid is traveling and busy with lots of things. He is having fun playing Lego Batman with Eric. We are just plugging away - ready for the school year to end.
