Girls rule, boys .....!!!

I just spent a great day with the girls. Nick and Kevin are off to Boy Scout camp for the week leaving me with luxurious girl time. We went out to lunch and had Mississippi Pizza with shaved ice on the side. It was an interesting but yummy combo for a warm summer day! Kate chose watermelon and Annie chose grape flavor. I went with the more sophisticated mango concoction! After lunch we strolled down the street and poked our head into a few shops until we became restless for home. The girls spent hours playing with their Breyer Horses and creating bridles, blankets, saddles and the usual horsey accoutrement.

Later we took Holly for a walk through the neighborhood. Well, I took Holly for a walk and the girls scootered circles around us. I was amazed that Annie could jump off the ground with her scooter over a water hose that was laying across the sidewalk. Funny, I used to be able to do all sorts of things like that when I was her age, I don't know why, but I seem to marvel at Annie's ability to do it as though she is a great talent! Must be a mom thing!

We ended our evening with some cheese, crackers and lots of blueberries. When I tucked them in they both gave me a hug and told my that it was a great day.
~ Bon Nuit!
