Every Sunday night during the summer Jordan Creek has outdoor concerts, and in July it's my favorite -- dueling pianos. These guys rock!! I could sit and listen to them for hours and the kids are crazy about them. Katherine loves dancing around, and Caleb -- he's just a wrecking ball. He tries to copy Katherine's dance moves, but all he seems to do is spin to the point of falling down all over the place. I swear, he's on the ground more than he's on his feet!! But hey, they have a great time, so it's all good!!
The dueling pianos played until 9:30 and fireworks started around 9:45. The kids *LOVED* the fireworks. Caleb sat on my lap with his eyes wide open oooohh'ng and aaaaaaahhhh'ing at each one. When they were over he clapped his little hands and wanted to see MOOOOR (more). Katherine snuggled in with Matt and was as happy as could be. Everyone had a great time, and we're anxiously looking forward to the next fireworks display, which is tomorrow night in Valley Junction.
When we got home, shortly after 11, disaster struck. Matt was in Caleb's room putting on his jammies, and I was changing my clothes. Katherine came running from Caleb's room into ours, and somehow her foot slipped.... She tumbled down the ENTIRE flight of steps, and the sound of it was enough to stop my heart... It was sickening... I was standing right there and couldn't grab her... She screamed and cried for a good half hour and ended up with a HUGE goose egg on the back of her head. Matt also found a cut in her hair. Other than the blow to the head, she seems OK. I've got to tell you... it was horrible. I ran down the stairs after her, but couldn't stop it. My poor little girl....
Tonight after dinner we went over to Matt & Jodi's house and Katherine & Caleb played in the pool with Abby. Abby has the coolest slip and slide thing hooked onto the end of her slide, and the girls must have gone down 50 times.
Here's some pictures for you....
I'm not sure if I ever mentioned this before or not, but Caleb has boycotted slides. I have no idea why, but he's refused to go down them unless I stand next to him and hold his hand. So here's a picture of my baby wanting to go down the slide, but refusing to go alone. Pitiful, huh???

That is terrible! I would have freaked. That's a great way to break your neck. She is so lucky! How is her head?
