And I start to complain that there's no rain...
NO RAIN! Do you hear me? No.rain...this is the second party I have given where it hasn't rained. The first one was last Memorial Day weekend. I let Owen have a big slumber party for his birthday and I just started telling parents to stay since the weather was nice and we could all cook out. It didn't rain then, either. I started thinking that maybe it was because I kept it small and spur of the moment that I had nice weather.
This party was awesome....it was well planned, well executed...the house and the yard looked great, the food was good...I didn't have too much or too little of anything. BRILLIANT. The fireworks got a little challenging - the mortars kept blowing our tubes - that was a problem as we basically launched a couple in the direction of our party guests. Whoops.
Alex made some good money - he'll be getting his laptop soon. I told him we'd talk this week about what kind to get, how much Kevin and I will be contributing, etc. I guess this means I'd better get my wireless up and running in the house again. A task I've been putting off for months. Whoops. I have to get Owen's room up and functional as well. Part of me doesn't want to make this happen, because I like that they have to surf from the office where I can see them. BUT - part of me wants to really trust my kids. I've seen most of what they're looking at and I think they know what they can and cannot do. But then I worry that I'll see my family on "To catch a predator" and oy. Alex will be fine - it's that overly friendly Owen that I'm more concerned about. Alex wants to play WoW - Owen wants to be friends with the world. I don't know where he gets it.
