Bella and Willow are the best of friends...although it is hard to tell with the way they wrestle around the house. I usually have to separate them to get them to take naps (just like children), but occassionally, they poop themselves out and just crash...together, of course!
We had an early first boat trip with Nana and Papa Joel this summer. The weather was great and we took Willow with us. She'll probably have to skip the later trips as she got pretty hot out there.
Bill finally won the war of the groomer and Willow got her first haircut. We miss the fluff ball, but I know she is more comfortable this way.
Sydney's Orchestra got together with two other schools (another middle school and the high school) to put on an awesome spring concert. She had extra practices and a dress rehearsal at the high school to prepare. I wasn't sure how she would handle it because new places freak her out (she comes by that honestly). She did an amazing job and the performance was so good! It was sad that Bill had to miss out....and, bad mommy that I am, I forgot the camera (this is an old pic)! We plan to order the DVD that they are offering so we will have at least some proof. LOL!!!
For a fun treat, Hayley's brownie troop decided to head to the Allen Natatorium for some rock climbing. Em and Syd decided to get in on the action, too. A couple of the girls actually made it to the top! It was a fun way to spend a couple of hours!!

Sydney had to put together a visual project for her ELAR class. She wrote, planned, directed, filmed and produced this video. I think she did an awesome job and so does her teacher as she got an A!!
This year we made gifts for the girls' teachers for teacher appreciation. We came up with these neat ideas from our Uppercase Living stuff!
This one was for Hayley's teacher who's first name was Summer.
This one was for Em's teacher her taught that the sound of "Ff" is FFFFfffff like a scared cat!
For some reason, I am crazy for bandanas for Chloe and the other pets. At one time, they all 4 had matching bandanas...don't think I have a picture of that, though. Anyway, here is a video montage of our pets and their bandanas....
We got the call that Bella was all ready to come home...sooner than we expected. We should have known once we got out there and she wouldn't come out from under their house that we had picked a crazy cat!!! She is so much fun...Maggie doesn't think so, but we all love her!! Here's some cute pics!
Checking the place out...
