Party!

One of the things Toolsons do well is throw parties. In the Months and weeks before K.C. left for his mission, we had more reasons and excuses to throw a party than ever. In fact we made up excuses to let K.C. do a lot of things.. His siblings would just roll their eyes and mumble something about it being because he was he baby. All K.C. would have to say is "I wish.." or I want" or "if only" and we would all bed over backwards. He kind of has that affect of a lot of people. Including Taylor Brown.

This is Taylor. She is a "bendable buddy" (remember those?) during one of the many parties, K.C. asked to see Tay do her "butt swing" just one more time for old times sake. she said no about 20 times until he said "all I want before I leave on my mission is to see you do the "butt swing"..PLEASE" (all of this said with his huge smile) Who knew a body could do that?

The Monstars

K.C., Dylan, Chad, Chase and Josh

Since the boys all live in the same neighborhood and were leaving at the same time, we held their open house together. a lot of people came just to get a last glance at the inseparables. And the girls? There is not enough room on a blog for those. Although it was much harder for all of them to say good bye to each other than any one girl :)
