Thought both of my girls should wear blue today, because mom is blue that they have gone away. Tara missed them terribly, but also loved having Mom here to herself. She will start school next week. Both girls are exactly where they need to be in terms of teachers and such, so I am content in their schooling. My camera fogged up, which you can tell by the pictures taken in the humidity here.

First Day of School Blues
Kittens, Swimming and High School Musical
As we were swimming last night, a few of the wild kittens under Papa's house came out and let me take a few pictures! Tara finally learned to swim under water!!! We had been trying all summer, then Re (Rita) took her to the Alma Water Park and she learned to swim...no floaties at all anymore. Now I am scared because she is a little too confident. We went to a party to see the premiere of High School Musical 2 and I took this cookie cake along. It was so much fun!

So many new pets here
My girls have been addicted to Webkinz since last December. As you can see, they keep multiplying, and I believe we have 40 between all the girls! Ridiculous, I know. It's the Beanie Baby craze all over again. For those of you that do not know about Webkinz, please google it and see what my daughters are so crazy about!

A Trip To Kansas
I took my girls on a surprise trip to meet friends in McPherson, Kansas. They thought we were going to a PTA convention..hahaha. Boy, were they surprised when we pulled up at the hotel next to their friends from Iowa! We became great friends with the Wagg family about 6 years ago and have kept in touch through their move to Iowa. Their twins, Olivia and Katie, had no idea what was going on either, so everyone had the great smiles of Christmas morning. It was great! The girls swam (a lot), we went out to dinner, got new Webkinz charms, ate space food, played games in our room and down the hall (OOPS!), and went to the Kansas Cosmosphere Museum...which was awesome! We spent the whole day there and our girls really enjoyed the IMAX production of Hurricane Katrina...I would suggest you see this if you get a chance...it opened my eyes about this issue. My girls miss the Wagg family already, and are planning a trip to Iowa.

Sleep-over Friends
The girls had friends over and we made rainbow cookie dough. They shaped them into aliens, butterflies and more. Thanks for coming Ashlyn and Alex!
