Wow, seems like life accelerated over the last couple of weeks. We celebrated Kellen's fifth birthday on the 12th. He wanted a bowling party like Kristin had, so we hosted the party at Big Als. It was fun to watch Kellen and his friend have fun with the ramps and bumpers. And the boys really like to clamor around when the presents are being opened. Lots is excitement for sure. Kellen really enjoyed telling people that it was going to be his birthday and now he likes telling everyone that he is !five!
We celebrated Mothers Day with our traditional brunch at a local restaurant. That was a good time since we went with another family and also ran into another family that we know.
Yesterday we hosted a BBQ for Kristin's soccer club. We figured that we had at least 65 people at the house. It was a lot of work to prepare for but it went very well. We had been having wonderfully sunny weather for two weeks but woke up to rain yesterday. Luckily it stopped about an hour or so before the guests arrived.
In between the big events we've been busy with softball. Kristin is playing on one team and has been a guest player on another. For only having played one season prior to this one, she sure has picked it up quickly. She seems to thrive on competition. In school she did well on both the state math and reading tests. She is exceeding grade level expectations for both.
Kellen continues to be our happy boy. He is tearing around on his bike. I won't be surprised if the training wheels come off this summer. He is closing in on the end of preschool. I can tell he will miss it terribly but he'll also love kindergarten too. Hard to believe he'll be there in September already.
