Weekly Review - June 6-12

Sunday, June 6 - We went to church and then hung out at home for the day. I didn't take any pictures...however, I did get a nice text from my sister. So, here's a picture of my cute little sister Marla.

Monday, June 7 - I can't even remember what we did on Monday. We didn't go anywhere. We didn't really do anything. I don't have a picture from the day.

Tuesday, June 8 - Paul came home from work and wanted to go look at dogs at the Humane Society. We found a puppy that was cute but when we inquired about it we found out that it had JUST been adopted. On our way home we went to a puppy store and looked at some cute Maltese puppies, and Matipoo puppies. The only problem with the puppies was that the were $1300!!! We went home and decided just to look online to see what else was available on the island. We found some Maltese/Shih Tzu puppies that had just been listed that we decided just to take a look at. We met up with the guy and decided that they were just too expensive so we headed home...and then pulled up next to the people with the puppies and told them that we changed our minds and we did want a puppy. So, we now have an adorable little Maltese/Shih Tzu puppy that is 9 weeks old. We named him Falkor after the luckdragon on The Neverending Story.

Wednesday, June 9 - The girls and I have been learning about Egyptian pyramids and mummies lately. We got to excavate a mini pyramid and find treasures inside. It started as a careful excavation chiseling away at the pyramid, and ended with throwing the pyramid on the sidewalk to break it open and get the treasures out.

Thursday, June 10 - My friend Nicole Reich invited us to go to the Zoo. I am so glad that she invited us. We had so much fun and Nicole is such an amazing person. I am so happy that I found such a wonderful friend. The kids played at the playground at the zoo the longest. Nicole took this cute picture of Gabby hanging upside down being a monkey.

Friday, June 11 - Kaylee decided that she wanted Grilled Cheese Sandwiches for dinner. She helped me get the sandwiches ready and onto the sandwich maker. She was an excellent helper.

Saturday, June 12 - We were playing out in the front of our house. The girls were having tons of fun running up and down the sidewalk, drawing with sidewalk chalk, and just plain being silly.
