everyone must be having a great summer so far - posts are slow coming. :) with the kids being older summer gets more and more hectic. our calender is full til the middle of august. every week atleast one kid has something going on - it's crazy. i feel like i have been unpacking this kid for one thing then packing another for the next. kurt goes to scout camp with brandon and jeremy next week, so i will be down to madison and trevor. then trevor goes to moab to stay with his friend the week after that and so on and so on. the chicago trip was so fun! i love that city, but know that i could never live there. i hate the whole taxi thing. it sucks handing some guy $10 to take you anywhere. i definatley missed my car. we did have 5 bmx bikes with us, so we rode those around alot (madison stood on kurts seat to make up for the missing bike). so, yes, i was riding a bmx bike around downtown chicago (can i add that to my bucket list?). thankfully i know no one in that city! 1 1/2 wks going to see paul mccartney. leslie mock if you must, but i am so excited - i loved him way before mark hoppus came along (i know he is old but he is one of the beatles!!!!). hope everyone is having a great summer!

ps - heather, we went with the lost series. brandon loves it and is already on season 3!
