The Three-Year-Old and the Pinata

Two!

This baby model is two-years-old.

The rain stayed away and we got to take advantage of the community green for the party this year. There was a pool noodle croquet course, a hockey shoot out, and a putting green for our long-handled tool competitions.  The pinata was hit. :)  Silas's favorite part was stealing ice from the drink coolers. After games and sandwiches/fruit/chips we packed into the house for some AC, cake, and gift unwrapping. He was pretty cute watching everyone serenade him.  I think he did feel special, so mission accomplished.  He sure has some cute buddies (young and old!).  Thanks to everyone for coming!  If anyone is in need of pool noodles or sweat bands I would be happy to oblige.

Howe Far?

"The road to a friend's house is never long." 2,868 miles sure is putting that quote to the test.

It's just that, who will garage sale with me and Alex?
It's just that how will I know when Once Upon a Child is having a sale?
It's just that who will watch my child and who will be his daily playmates?
It's just that who will I vent to about the woes of education?
It's just that where will I get maternity cloths if I ever get pregnant again?
It's just that who will keep me and my conservative views company?
It's just that who will discuss the Bachelor with me at school?
It's just that who won't judge me for putting the last two statements back to back?
It's just that who will I even know at church?
It's just that who will Silas and Lucas's third amigo be?

I am glad you are going home to old and new friends, a loving family, and the best care for Tucker. It's just that you can't forget about me because I'm still here and I love you.
