ugh...i can't let myself get behind again. yesterday was a bbq--and boy, did we oblige. shrimp kebabs, steak, chicken, hot dogs, and hamburgers covered the table in the kitchen, while the countertops overflowed with salads, spicy green beans, and desserts. a dozen screaming kids and their frazzled parents completed the picture. i'm exaggerated a little, but i have to say that i have never seen my house so cluttered with toys and such. i guess this is a small taste of what a teenage party will look like in about ten years. i'm definitely not looking forward to that.
