It has been a while so lets catch up!

July 15th



Tabitha got bubbles for her birthday and I just now opened them. Yes shame on me because she loves them! Maddy and Abby had a great time catching them too!


July 16th

We went to an ice cream shop for a tour. The best part was the ice cream! Maddy has discovered sorbet and LOVES IT! She is eating lemon. Abby got sorbet too but I think she got the watermelon because it was pink!

July 17th

We went to the zoo. It was a free day so it was very busy. We got to go to a fun story time and walk around a little bit, but we only stayed for about an hour and a half. It was very warm! We did get to see the lion and he walked around a little bit. That was very neat to see!



We also had craft time at our house. We painted with fly swatters. Have you ever done this? You have got to try it. Such a neat idea! We had about 8 kids over and we painted in the driveway. We only got a little green paint on the house and just a few speckles on the kids!
After they pained the had snow cones inside. YUM!

Then Abby decided to become a coat rack. Where did she get this idea? "From the TV show Hannah Montana" She sure did look cute!

Still July 17th!

We had the busiest Tuesday ever! Grandma came and stayed with us for 3 days! The girls were so happy to see her. On Wednesday she took us to see the new Harry Potter movie. WOW was it good! We were all really into it. Even Abby. It wasn't scary at all for her.

July 20th

Yes, we were one of those people that went and got the Harry Potter book at midnight! The book store had several activities before the book was released. We got to see a little potions show, then a fortune teller. Somehow he knew Abby was having a birthday he predicted she was going to eat cake! He told Maddy she was going to be cleaning up honey nut Cheerios and one day a boy was going to ask her to marry him in a hot air balloon!
Vinod brought Tabitha up there just in time to see the costume show (there were a couple of great costumes) and then he took Abby and Tabitha home. At midnight there was a count down for the book and then we lined up for the book. There was probably 1000 people there. Luckily we got there earlier in the day and picked up our lot in line. We were out the door at 12:15 and by 1:00 AM!!! Maddy had already read 30 pages!

So that was a busy week!
