Kennedy asks to ride her bike at least 3 times per day. She is very quick to go get her helmet before she rides. Today, however, she wanted to ride after her bath, but it was too late and very dark outside (plus she was already clean!); instead she modeled her helmet for me.
[I actually think she has it on backwards there...]

I had surgery on my left foot today. Kevin said I was pretty hilarious while I was under anesthesia. After surgery I kept asking these questions:
- “Can I see my foot?” [And when I saw it I said, "Ohhh, it's a foot!"]
- “What time is it?”
- “Did you [Kevin] get to eat breakfast?”
- “Did you text my mom?”
- “Can I have a drink of water?”
- “Aren’t you the nurse who was there for Colby’s surgery?”
[Okay - the last one.. this was the very last thought before I went into surgery, so apparently my subconscious wanted me to remember this - she WAS the nurse who helped us out when Colby broke his arm in October.]
So apparently I asked these questions a Lot. Over. And Over. and Over.
And, here’s my foot con bandage, sans boot. [That will be for another day.]

Well, actually this is the restroom in the library. Colby & Kennedy fight over who gets to push Carlee in the stroller, and Carlee fights having to be in the stroller. Usually our library times only last 10-15 minutes because that’s when Carlee gets tired of riding. I’ll let her out, but usually she runs to the stairs (the children’s section of the Bryan library is on the 2nd floor).
Today when we all got in the elevator, I thought we were going to be stuck.. the kids fought over who got to push the button, so when I lifted Kennedy up to push the button, she refused to push the correct one. Then the elevator shifted uneasily and I started praying… I pushed the button to go down and the elevator shifted again but in the direction of down. Thankfully. Makes me question bringing the stroller again.

This picture shows Kennedy singing into a shower head in the middle of HEB. I can’t decide what’s more cute – her singing into a shower head and thinking it was a microphone, or her singing “Itsy Bitsy Spider”.

Ahh I’ve been outta pocket a while, obviously… so I’m not even going to attempt to title it as the picture of the day! Last night we fired up the sprinklers in the back yard and the kids had a blast getting all wet. Here’s a few pictures.

…but very sweet, nonetheless. Kevin laid down with Colby to try and coax him into an afternoon nap. Colby closed his eyes just before I snapped the pic.

Bought these at the Farmer’s Market today. Hoping they’ll make this late in the year.

Tonight Kevin and I went out for our anniversary. We saw “Inception” in the movie theater, then drove around for a little while, picked up Chinese food, and ate it while watching another movie – “Traitor” on Netflix.
I can’t believe we’ve been married 8 years. Here’s to the next 80 or so.

It was really hard to say goodbye to our German friends. I can’t decide who had a better time – them or us.
We’re going to have to learn some German so we can take a trip there next summer.

8 years, 8 cookies.

The perfect gift matches the perfect man for me.

Tonight I joined some friends in celebration of our friend Leah’s birthday. Too bad the waitresses don’t take iPhone photography classes.. I mean, how many times per day do they get asked the question, “Would you take our picture?”

The preacher from Siegberg, Germany, preached at our church today. He did a fabulous job speaking in English. At the end of the service, the team presented a German flag that their congregation signed. Here’s Marina & Christine displaying the flag.

Just after swimming and taking a bath, the kids settle in to watch tv, and I snap a picture.
