Well, as you are all aware...#5 is on his/her way. I go to the dr. on Aug. 19th, I can't wait! We are so excited! Anne, we are doing just fine filling that nest I think! Ha! Ha! I wanted to share with those of you who couldn't come to the girl's dance recital some pictures. They did a wonderful job and were the most beautiful girls up there! It was so fun being with everyone this weekend, we really need to make an effort to not make it so long before we all get together...it just needs to be a priority! I don't know why it's so hard when we all have so much fun! Well, love you all and can't wait until the next b-day or wedding to see you all!

4TH OF JULY PICS

Summer 2008 update:

The summer is going so fast! Andrew will turn 13 in August. so hard to believe. But "teenage" is all over him! He is such a great kid. He's working 2 days a week this summer plus doing some chores for a neighbor. this fall he will go into the Youth Group. Yikes. Girls are lurking everywhere! Jack is 11 1/2 and is enjoying just hanging out this summer. Board games, Suduko, crossword puzzles, chess, etc. are his bag! Theo is 8 1/2 and our star athlete. He is playing soccer right now, but he loves it all. Being the youngest boy he is always up to "something" if you know what I mean! Simone is definitely the life of the party. Never a dull moment with that girl. She loves her brothers and torments them all at the same time. She can't wait for kindergarden to start....I hope they are as prepared as she is! Keep adding to the blog - this is fun!

4th of July Pool Party

Hi Everyone!
can you believe we are looking at the 4th of July? this summer has gone so fast. In a couple weeks the kids go to camp and a couple weeks after that we go on family vacation and then it's time for school to start! Wow! It was fun being together last night out at Grandma's, we hadn't done that for a while. Alot of news going on in the family these days. I forgot to tell you all we are adopting a set of twins! JUST JOKING!! Wouldn't you all croak? Makes me laugh to think about it! Now it's up to all you young couples to fill the nest.
I just redecorated our bedroom/bath and have some nice taupe/tan colored bath accessories if anybody is interested they can snag them at the 4th Pool Party!
Remember to bring meat for the grill and a side dish or desert. We will provide the drinks and paper products. It should be fun!
Wish you could be here Debbie and Steve. It was so great seeing you in April! Love you all!

Oh yea thats Nicole.... JK Theres alot of stuff going on in the Mahlstadt family I'll let you know about more to come.
Since I didn't write for so long. I missed the father day blog. When I went to see Ronny and Carman, Ronnie was telling me when Ronnie and Kenny were in high school dad would take them fishing all the time. Dad would come over at the crack of dawn trying to wake them up. Ronnie said they played football the night before and wouldn't get out of bed. Ronnie started laughing said dad would get mad at them and say fine and leave but before he left he took $2.00 out of each of there billfolds for gas. Ronnie said everywhere dad went Ronnie went so he went hunting and fishing with dad all the time. Dad took him duck hunting, Ronnie said they were crawling on there bellys to a pond where ducks were everywhere and dad started shooting. Come to find out they were all tame ducks. Ronnie said they got out of there fast. I can't believe it's been 5 years.. Life just hasn't been the same has it. :( Anyway I know he's having fun. Wish we could just see a glimpse. Dan where are you? I haven't seen anything in the blog from you. Tell us a memory... We all need to get together soon. Maybe we could go to a park. Love you all.
