Katie's 5th Birthday Party
June 22, 2007

Katie's birthday is July 25, but since she has a Summer birthday and most of her friends would have already moved or be gone for the Summer we decided to celebrate her party a month early. Heather planned this thing for months preparing a Hawaiian Luau theme with a Beach Ball pinata, Hawaiian leis and grass skirts she made for each of the guests, and a Palm Tree cake and palm tree cupcakes. Except for my grilling (it's been a while since we haven't had gas for a year) it was a great party and the kids had a lot of fun just running around and playing in the back yard.

Quotes to Remember

We were in Munich and just checking into our Hotel and both the girls needed to go to the bathroom. We all ran upstairs to our rooms and they both bolted into the bathroom. They began to fight over which one was going to use the toilet first. They argue for a few seconds when Katie shouts, "Mom, which one of us do you want to pee their pants?!" (May, 2009)
We were driving home from church last week and I said something like, "We are going to buy a Toyota Sequoia". Suddenly from the back we hear our 4 year old, Ashley, pipe up ... "You killed my Father...Prepare to Die!"...somehow she confused "Toyota Sequoia" with "Inigo Montoya" from the Princess Bride! (May, 2009)
Ashley and I were playing a card game when she says to me, "pause the game, I have to go to the bathroom". This is when I realized the technology gap between my childhood and hers.
I asked Ashley what country she was born in (she was born in Canada). She told me that she couldn't remember, so I tried to give her a hint. I said, "you were born in Cannnn...". To which she immediately exclaimed in triumph..."CANDYLAND!!"
Katie woke us up this morning telling us we needed to get up. Heather told her that her head hurt and she wasn't going to get up yet. Katie responds, "But you don't WALK on your head, so get up!"
