Happy 16th Colleen!

A big thanks to Karen and Colleen for a fun evening filled with laughs. For the past several years Karen has asked me to help chaperone Colleen's birthday parties. Obviously to keep Karen company, not for my toughness. Last night was a biggie that started at Tiffany's (sniff, sniff), took us to PF Chang's, and ended at the movies (Step Up 2).

I wish I had a way to transfer a recording from my phone to the blog. I'm sure there's a way but I don't know what it is (help Joseph?) Anyway, the girls and maybe a couple of chaperones were singing at the top of their lungs (whaling as Ariel put it) and we just happened to catch it on the cell phone. What a fun time!!

PS A bonus to working at the high school...when they talk about boys, I actually know who they're talking about. :)



So while I was out with the girls, Scott and the boys went to Gabe's first baseball practice, made beef jerky from Jacob's deer, repaired a kitchen chair and played a rousing game of Wac-A-Mole. Fun evening all around.

Thank God I had Michelle with me to keep my sanity. Who would have thought keeping 3 semi-mature 15-16 year olds in line would be like herding cats! It was fun - but I'm exhausted.

PS..Plugknocker - are you wearing your Tiffany's perfume? They gave it to your wife when she purchased that "bauble"...whoops....

Keep your sanity? That's a contradictory statement. A sane person would not have attempted that excursion in the first place.

There were times when I wished I'd had that wack a mole hammer....
