It Sunday afternoon and Alianna has a friend over. They are playing at the creek and I am just waiting for their very wet and muddy return. Of course they told me that won't be the case, but it has never not been the case. Her friends are always sent home with a bag full of wet clothes. But they have fun and kids need to get dirty. I just wish it wasn't in my house!
Landon and Larry are also outside playing. It is chilly and wet today compared to the past several weeks, but Landon NEEDS to be outside! They will play on the swing set and Landon will terrorize the ducks. Landon has a new game on the swing set. While pushing him he likes it if you guess his name. It goes something like this... "Are you Lucus?" "Hee!Hee! No mommy!" "Are you Friedrick?" Belly laugh, "Noooooo!" "I know are you Miss Jessica?" And we continue the game until I finally say, "Are you Landon?" and he says, "Yes!" and I say, "Landon who?" and he says, "Landon Margaret Groth!" He won't believe me that his middle name is different then Alianna's.
As for me, I am working on several things at once. Laundry is currently spinning, I am uploading Flip videos, trying to figure iMovie, and trying to decide if we should buy a new swing set that doesn't look like it is going to fall apart in any minute. Later yet today I need to pay some bills and write out my weekly plan so I can at least pretend like I thought it might all actually happen. Oh yeah, and I really need a coffee!
Circus week is coming up in two weeks at Alianna's school. I can't wait to see what act she will participate in this year. Her performance is on the 27th in case anyone wants to fly over here to catch it. But for those of you who can't, no worries. My Flip will work for a least another year.
After circus week, Germany celebrates it many spring holiday's. We will head back to Paris on one of the weekends and see something other then the Eifel Tower. Maybe Landon will be a little more willing to sightsee this time. If not, I'll still be in Paris. Who needs to actually see the Louve?
With summer gearing up, kids finish school JULY 22, we are starting to plan where we will vacation to next. This will be our last full summer so we still have several places to mark off our list. The Canary Islands and Alps are looking to take top billing. I'll keep you posted.
