Paul and Jane were married June 27 in the Denver Colorado temple! Curtis and I and the kids drove out, it was a tad longer than we expected! 13 hours turns into 16 or 17 pretty quickly with multiple bathrom breaks. We left Thursday at about 6:30 am and got in at 10:30 pm. We had fun swimming in the pool and catching up with all the LaClaire's and Slagowski's and meeting Jane's family was great.

Did you know that the #1 kid rule of summer is to change your clothes at least 3 times a day? And then when mom tells you to clean up all of those clothes, stuff them in the hamper no matter what condition they are in?? I can't seem to get on top of that and the dishes and house... it has been intense around here. The reality of 4 kids home all day is, real...
So having said that I will resign myself to a quick blog here and there just to keep up, but I really want more time to write and perfect each one, but that isn't a possibility... maybe in the fall it will be, check the ticker for the countdown to kindergarten!!! I'm also a dying to pick HP and the Half Blood Prince again, (thanks Noelle) priorities, priorities!
The week after the wedding, MN open house for the happy, beautiful couple here at 5518 105th Ave. I had a few moments of high anxiety at 5:45 when the food wasn't ready and the chocolate fountain was exploding on the deck, but after we moved the fountains, and Sandy came with the food, the night was great.

p>The past few weeks have reminded me that Curtis and I are no longer the newlyweds in the family! Paul was 12 when we got married, and get this (deep breath) Jane graduated from HIGH SCHOOL in 2007!!!!!!!! What is going on here? Who is this couple with 4 kids who were born in the 70's??? That can't be us! We're still just playing house, or at least it feels that way!
Jane, her mom Jozianne, two sisters Andrea (holding JK) and Emily, Curtis and Sandy. Paul got lucky with this family. They are so much fun.
