Silly Faces & Fun Pics

Here are just a few funny faces and cute pics of Monk and Tink I thought you might enjoy.

First Day of School

So my last post of the night or should I say morning is of the girls first day of school. Both Monk and Tink were very happy to get back to school. Summer proved to be too boring and they missed their friends and the monkey bars. Here are my cutie patuties on their first day. Check out Monk's new adorable hair cut. I can't believe I have a 4th grader and a 1st grader. It blows my mind how time flies.

Girls Girls Girls

I recently hosted a girl cousins sleep over at my house and it was a lot of fun. Of course we waited until the summer was almost over before we finally did it, but that is not the important thing. What is important is that the girls are creating memories together. The girls colored, made fun designs with wikki stix, sang their hearts out to Playstation SingStar, ate junk food and ended the evening watching The Waterhorse. The next morning I made french toast for everyone, sent them on their way and then made sure that I got a nap in later :-)

Girls Night Out

I made plans to see Mama Mia with my good friends and neighbors NC and HC. We had so much fun. Well in order to go to Mama Mia I had to cancel going to another girls night out with some other girl friends of mine. So those friends decided to toilet paper our houses, but they got mine the worst because our neighbor busted them when shortly after they started. NC, MC and I got some revenge by driving to their homes at midnight and using window paint on their cars. I tell you - I hope I am never too old to forget the kid in me. What fun!

Time Flies

School has just begun and I can't believe how fast the time flew by. I finally figured out how to download the pictures off my camera so I will attempt capture some of the fun things we have done since my last post (and some before).

My good friends took me to the Cheesecake Factory right after my birthday and we had a really great time. We watched the movie Get Smart and laughed more than anyone else in the theater - go figure!


My kids stayed behind with my friend D's hubby and their amazing kids and they had a blast watching Pirates of the Caribbean, the third one I think. Here are some pictures.



We also had an adventure at the Kiwanis Wave Pool. We invited some new friends to join us, the Gibson family, and we had a ton of fun. The wave pool was great - and scary at the same time. At one point HG and I were with Tink and her two small girls trying to get to the "shore" and the waves just kept hitting us. Wave 1 - Boom, I went down. Wave 2 - HG's little girl went down - I am trying to get up and the waves keep knocking me down and HG is trying to grab her little girl, while carrying her other little girl on her hip and then Boom - Wave number 3 hits and Tink goes down. HG tries to grab Tink as well and it was just so funny because I couldn't get my balance to get up and help, I just kept getting knocked down by the force of the waves. The whole experience was hilarious. There is so much chlorine in the pool that all of us were grossed out by our hair. It literally felt like Barbie hair. It took several washes for it to feel normal, but it was worth it. I definitely recommend the wave pool if your kids can swim.





We went to a friend's baptism and here is a cute picture of my girls and SD.

Monk has been a great kid this entire summer - helping out with her sissy and chores etc. so I rewarded her by taking her and her cousin J to Waterworld. We had a great time. We were there all day and were exhausted. That same week my nephew was visiting from CA and we all had a good time hanging out at the pool.
