Our day of fun












So today was the first day we got to use or 7 peaks passes it was around 86 degrees. So we were definitely excited to spend some of the the day in the water and sun. I am determined to get at least a light tan. I think it will be harder than I think. My dad deflated my sister and I. when we got home he said we looked like we had been bleached white! nothing new I am used to white. Anyway we had a good time at the water park until it got crowded. The beautiful thing about season passes is that you don't feel like you have to stay all day!!! The rest of today was spent with Lori doing the girls hair. cuts and color. They are pretty in Pink and they absolutely love there hair.!!!! I can only imagine what people are going to say about me letting the girls get pink hair. I think they look cute and it was fun to watch the excitement on there face when they saw there hair.

Well today is Friday. The girls had fun helping grandpa with mowing the lawn and enjoyed every minute of it.



We also went to the strawberry days rodeo, we had a good time we enoyed our strawberries and cream ( and one for you Jackie) the girls and I enjoyed it quite a bit. I had to leave to take gillian home early. She was pretty tired and her eye was looking not so good. Poor Gillian ended up with pink eye. We travel and she gets pink eye lame we are all hoping we don't get it. We have enjoyed our time in spite of this eye issues.

Gillians moving up ceremony





I am sure anyone reading this is in shock that I am actually doing a blog!! Miracles do happen.
So I have promised Mark that I will be better at keeping a blog and keeping him up to date with all the things the girls and I are doing this summer. So what better day to start than Gillian's pre-school graduation. I can't believe that she is going to be in kindergarten next school year. I think I look forward to it and at the same time it will be interesting to have both children gone at school all day. I guess It would be a good time for me to start getting a life.
Anyway today was Gillian's "graduation" and the ceremony had started. The kids were being called up one by one and what happens when it's Gillian's turn? Well at the precise moment she was called up her name tag on her chair came of, she looks at me like her world had ended and she didn't know what to do. She is just staring at me the teacher and all the kids keep calling her name to go up to the front of the class. She just sits there paralyzed and big tears start to well up in her eyes. I keep reassuring her that it will be OK that her name tag came off her chair. my reassurances were obviously not good enough. the teacher had to come over with tape and put her name tag on her chair before she would go up in front of the class. then when she gets up there my camera freezes and I miss the picture well sort of. Anyway always an adventure when it concerns Gillian. Over all it was really fun to watch her moving on to the big time.
