just to catch you up on what's been going on... Rich turned 30!!! We had a great birthday celebration. A lot of family came to visit and he even got a very special visit from his mission president! It was a lot of fun. I wish you all could have been there. Rich loved it.

Garret finished t ball this season. After his last game, we had a big party at his coaches house. Garret loved his trophy! (That's him on the right end for those that aren't positive which one he is) It was a great season and I am looking forward to next season.

He also graduated from preschool. His class marched into the room to the traditional Pomp and Circumstance. It was really cute. Garret received a couple of awards but his most notable would be for "the most friendy" in his class. After his graduation, our family and his best friends family celebrated by going to Burger King (kids choice) and to the park. Garret is now having withdrawals and can't wait for Kindergarten. Me too.

Just a bit about Kira... I finally found some elastics that she can't pull out of her hair. Yay!!! She is trying to talk more now. Yesterday she actually said "truck" instead of just pointing at it and saying "unh." Hopefully the words will keep coming.
