Memorial Day Weekend

Memorial Day Toby

We (me for an hour, Susan till 2 am, the kids till 5 am) slept on the trampoline last night and then followed it up with a trip to Krispy Kreme - Toby likes the hat and goggles (from the Mini ride). Hopefully they'll have a good nap this afternoon . . .

Mini Milestone

The Mini reached 22,222 miles this afternoon - just a cool number since my brother on his mission turns 21 this month on the 22nd (and he was born at 22:22 according to family folklore) - Happy Early Birthday, Nate!

Our Mother's Day Gift to Susan . . .

. . . was to leave her at home ALL BY HERSELF while we went to the drive-in movie showing of "Speed Racer" with the Mini Cooper Club. We also dropped off a card and licorice to Grandma Jensen on our way to the show.
The kids wore their pajamas and were really well behaved for being close together and out pretty late at night. TJ wanted to drive like Speed Racer on the freeway on the way home, Heather told me that life is a contest of making friends so she wanted to get out of the car and go find some other little girls to be her friends so that she'll win the contest, and Toby kept asking if he could sit on my lap and were we going to go on the houseboat?!? They ate grapes, rice krispie squares, flavored licorice, and presliced apples flavored with caramel - I had an upset stomach by the end of the movie just from eating their leftovers so the car wouldn't be a mess. I'm grateful for Susan and my mom who live and care for kids like this ALL the time!

Happy Mother's Day, Susan and Grandma Jensen and Grandma Kennedy!
