I was insanely busy with my new church assignment as a Young Women leader and I had
Dance rehearsals and performances. Plus,
It was nice weather, so who wants to be at a computer? Also,
Let's not forget that Matt was working long hours,
We had/have family in town,
We went out of town for a few days,
We had two birthdays and a baptism to do,
My computer is growing senile and decided not to download pictures,
And, hello? I have 4 kids.
If that is not good enough for you, then it might console you to know that my house hasn't been clean, Matt made dinner half the time in May, and I haven't even come close to the usual intake of chocolate.
Anyway,
I'll fill in the gaps eventually (my computer will need some bribes), but for now, I'll just share something that always makes me smile.
On March 11, I jokingly exclaimed, "Hey! It's my half birthday! Hooray!"
Matt wasn't amused, but the kids got excited and disappeared upstairs for a few hours. That evening they surprised me with fake food, games, and party favors.
These are some of the favors. They're "puppets".
It cracks me up. I'm so tempted to add some fake blood around the necks to complete the picture. Also, the Willow quote comes to mind: "I'm gonna cut your head off and stick it on a pig pole!!"
