Hello! Hello! Hello! My wonderful readers, I am back! And not only am I back, but I am bigger than before! I have moved twice, once to Hamilton and now to Missoula. Guys, I used to HATE Missoula.

He just happened to have it at the Y (as do most staff kids, our birthday parties are so popular!) and he invited Alan. We all had such a wonderful time! The party was football themed and there were several of Alan's classmates there as well. Anna tagged along for the party, she did pretty good too, considering she was the youngest in the whole group! :) She hung out with Tucker's teenage sisters almost the whole time lol. Already such a diva… Thanks for inviting us Tucker! We had a wonderful
