Sweet K is always willing to play with her siblings and

Now for the official weekend update. K had her first sleepover birthday party on Friday night. She had a great time and had a lovely shade of blue finger nail polish to show for her time there. On Saturday, after picking K up, we headed to Hippy-Dippy Land. I accidentally got my family there an hour early - oops! B participated in the 100 yard backstroke, 50 yard breast stroke and 100 yard freestyle, of the ones that he had recorded times for he improved his time by 3 to 5 seconds - which we all agreed was great! Jason tried to encourage B by telling him about the stag times that he needed to achieve in order to participate in the championships in the spring and apparently told him he had a long way to go. B's response was, "way to be encouraging Dad!"
Sunday we opted for splitting up the family, one day of chasing a two year old around on concrete steps is sufficient - trust me on this one! So today B&A and I headed to town again, K went to church with some friends and Z & Jason attempted a new Toy Story watching record... 7 times in one day! They got to four! Today B swam the 50 yard free style, 50 yard backstroke and my personal favorite the 100 yard IM (individual medley) - again he shaved seconds off of his times and is only about 10 seconds from making his stag times in some of the events. I really enjoy this sport! Today I was encouraging B and telling him how great it was to have improved by seconds (I know that seems weird) and B looked at me and said, "Thanks Mom, for not being like Dad." I couldn't help but chuckle at that! Woo hoo - I'm not the bad guy this time!!
Tonight we are going to go to a church dinner, I'm sure that will be fun and then we will begin to plan for our Thanksgiving holiday.
I have so much to be thankful for and counting you as friends is one of those things!
Happy Thanksgiving!

I love the part about K's blue finger nails. Super cute!
sounds like another busy weekend for Jason's Clan.
K, it is great you had a good time at your first sleep over. B, you rock dude. I found swimming to be a lot of fun when I was your age too! Good job on doing so well.
