Playing Catch-Up

Seriously?  It's July?  Why has this year flown so fast?  The Princesses have kept me so busy, I haven't been diligent in the Blog department.  Several pictures have made it to Facebook, so that is something.  Here's the first half of the year in a nut shell.

Thing 1 goes to All State Choir and performs some really fun songs with kids from all over Oregon.  Aunt Barbara joined me and Thing 3 at the concert.

The Princesses perform in the Dance Concert.  T-1 was a chimney sweep in a Mary Poppins medley, T-2 shook her booty to 'Girls Just Want to Have Fun' and got her 5 year award, and T-3 did two dances;  'Rockin' Robin' and 'Thank Heaven for Little Girls'.

The Royal Family visits Los Angeles and San Diego.  We rented a house with the cousins (third year!) and had so much fun swimming, visiting the temple and the Mormon Battalion, shopping, eating and visiting Shamu!
