Two weeks ago we celebrated my sister Susan's birthday...it was a big one, I won't give her age away! Tara came home and we went to the Lighthouse Bistro at Atwood Lake and had a great time. Her husband is working in Washington, DC, so he couldn't be there.

The countdown to Carli and Jeremy leaving for camp is very stressful. She feels like she has too much to do before she leaves, and things can get a little tense. My friend at work says that no more than 2 adults should live in a home at the same time, and I think that I agree!! I love having the kids at home, but the older they get, the more things get a little crazy. She is working on invitations, and she and Jeremy both are having a hard time with the guest list. We have large families and they both have lots of mutual friends, so the deciding is very difficult. We wish that we could afford to invite everyone! There are so many people who helped us so much through her illness...

Kelsie is now home, and brought strep throat with her! She saw the Nurse Practitioner this morning. What a way to start her summer! I hope that the antibiotics work quickly as she starts work at the DariEtte tomorrow.

Ted's clinic remodeling is moving right along. He is extremely busy trying to keep that going and the household stuff and he does all of his books/payroll/etc for the business. I don't know when he gets it all done. It's probably good that I'm not home much because then I don't notice when he's not here!
