After Michael's soccer game yesterday afternoon we went with some friends to "family karaoke night" at my favorite establishment. Though it didn't start when we thought, we still had a good dinner, played some trivia, and eventually got to sing a couple of songs. Michael was the star. He did a mean version of Juke Box Hero and had the whole place in stitches.
Also, I need to tell you the story of Megan's accent training for drama. They are supposed to use different accents to say the phrase "Where you in the boat when the boat turned over. Of course not silly, I was in the water." So, we were driving home from somewhere, and the kids and I started trying this particular exercise. Ken almost had to pull over until we could calm down. We were all in stitches. It is sometimes funny to watch Ken watch us. It seems like he keeps wondering "where did these people come from and why do I love them as much as I do?" And, for the record, I am the best at accents. I totally nailed the German accent. And I am pretty practiced with the Swedish accent so that was pretty good as well.
So, I reflect on my weekend with my kids. Fun times in the car, a great dinner and movie night with the older kids, Ken had a great time with Michael at the Galaxy game, and a great family karaoke night. Makes me think how lucky I am. I really do have great kids. They make me laugh. I tell them I'm the best friend they'll ever have (that's what my mom used to say) but truth is, they are probably the best friends I'll ever have.
I Love You Guys!

You're kids are great and very musically talented. My family had a great time though they don't sing my boys had fun playing darts with their dad and Tatum had fun watching everyone and really wants to go back. We are pretty lucky to have found good men that care about us more than the world itself and kids that let us know how important it is to be moms. I hope that you continue to invite us places because we really have fun with you guys. See you soon :)
I miss you..
