Wanna come jump?

I think we might be crazy but we are renting this for Parker's birthday party in a few weeks. His cousin, Carter had this at his party this summer and Parker really liked it. Several neighbor kids have had something similar too so now it is Parker's turn! His theme is Scooby Doo and we were excited to see that they have a Scooby face to put on it!

I called today and left a message telling them I "wanted a bouncer for a birthday party in September..." Tonight while we were eating supper, a lady called and Jonathan answered. She said, someone left them a message and said they wanted a bouncer for a party and she wanted me to know I had left a message at the wrong number! How embarassing... I had actually called the bouncer place back later today and apparantly got the number right because they said, "Bouncer's Unlimited" when the recording began. I knew then I was in trouble, because I had not heard that message earlier today! I bet that lady wonders what kind of party I am having since I am wanting to rent a "bouncer!" Dear me...

Pass the cheese balls...

My mom bought us this enormous bucket of cheese balls for the kids! They absolutely love them and won't eat anything else if they are on the table! We have to make them stop eating them... I just love what it does to their little fingers too! Ugh... We have made a good "dent" in this bucket already! Thanks Mom!!! We'll let you know when we get to the bottom...

Blame in on Angie!

Angie has given me the fever to try out a new template! I have actually been trying to get a new one for some time now and have messed it up several times! I finally gave up but decided to try again when I saw Angie doing it! Bear with me as I am not as computer minded as some...

School and Stomach Bug...

Parker had his first day of pre-school today! He went to this same pre-school last year so it was all familiar to him. He did just fine but couldn't remember what he did at school when we asked him!! Typical kid... I was supposed to work today but got some dreaded stomach virus and was up hourly during the night and still sick today! I got Parker up and got him dressed and was able to take a picture of him ,but then it was back to bed for me!! I sent the camera with Jonathan with specific instructions to take "a couple" of pictures and that is exactly what I got... Two! One was even slightly blurry but I will post it anyway!

The Stomach virus seems to have only been a 24hr bug and so far, no other Walden's have gotten the pleasure! Thank goodness...

That's all for now!

Kyle the Marine...

We had a pitch-in dinner today celebrating Kyle Killinger becoming a Marine as of Friday! He is a third cousin of mine and a first cousin of fellow blogger's Denise and Nicole! His family was able to fly out to California and attend his graduation ceremony and had some really good photos of their weekend! It was good to see Kyle again today at church. He is home on a 10 day leave and will go back for another 8 weeks. Please remember Kyle in your prayers as he continues his training. Here are some pictures I took today for his family and friends to enjoy!
