Dance! Magic Dance!!

During the last week things here have been just a little busy. Last Wednesday Grandma and Grandpa moved in. That's right! Moved in. They are staying with us, in Zach's room, until their house next door is ready, which should be this coming week. We have been unpacking a few things; playing with Grandma and Grandpa; baking bread, muffins and all sorts of good yummies, etc.

Yesterday, while I was taking care of a few things, Skylah was watching one of many of her favorite movies, Robots. Her favorite part, however, is the end. Why? Because it makes her do this....

and this....

and this....

Later, she and Grandma felt like playing a little round of Pretty Pretty Princess...

Aren't they so 'pretty'?!

What a fun day! Skylah had a great time spending with Grandma and dancing to all sorts of music.

This week has been full of errands as well, to help us all prepare for the coming months. Which leads me to the most unfortunate news (I know you will all be completely bored, heartbroken and miserable because of this.) that I will be unable to post any further posts for several weeks, due to the most horrible events about to take place... First, (now brace yourselves) I must help my parents paint their new home and move in. Second, (now this is awful) I must drive to Florida with my family and spend an entire month in a 3-bedroom condo overlooking the beach; spending countless hours sitting on the beach watching my children build numerous sand castles, collect infinite numbers of seashells and even possibly getting a tan. Third, (okay, this one is just the absolute worst of them all) I HAVE to get back from Florida, ONLY to get back in the car a few days later to make a 2 1/2-week-long road trip along the Mormon/Oregon trails; camping out, touring historical sites and at the midpoint of our travels (in Oregon) having to take part in my own brother's wedding. Then I have to turn around and do more camping, touring, visiting historical monuments, etc., before I finally get back home in the middle of July.

Sounds horrid, doesn't it?? I know you all feel sorry for me, so I will pause a moment to allow you to get your Kleenex. Go on... I know you need a breather.

Okay, so maybe it won't be horrible. And by now you are all thinking that I am either REALLY sarcastic, or completely insane. Actually I am both!!!

So, I will see you all later. Have a great Summer!!!
