School, Pops, and swimming.

Today the girls went to school to find out who their teachers are for the year. Abby got Mrs. Dahl. Yea! She is very happy. Maddy got Mrs. Paine and was also just as happy. She has several of her friends in the class this year which makes her very happy. Also we are so happy to report that the bully that gave Maddy such a hard time last year is NOT IN HER CLASS! THANK GOODNESS!
To celebrate all of this I took the girls to one of their favorite places to eat, Pop's. Its a gas station with a little restaurant in it and tons of bottled soda's. We had lunch and picked out soda's than we cruised on RT. 66 for a little bit taking in the sites. Then it was off to a friends house to swim. It was such fun. Its been quite a bit cooler here so the water wasn't as warm but they had just as much fun. Abby is swimming without her life jacket and Tabitha put on Abby's water wings and swam! She kicked her feet and kept her body somewhat upright. WOW! I was so surprised. Go TT!
Now TT went without another nap today because we went swimming so I think she was very ready for bed. After 8 stories and a little crying she went to sleep.
