this week

Maren starts school tomorrow!  When we asked her if she is ready, she replied, "I've been waiting my whole life to go to Kindergarten"!  I hope this lasts.

We took off Maren's training wheels a week ago.  It's time and she's ready.  She woke up the next day and asked,  "Do I know how to ride my bike now, Mom?...or was that just a dream?"

We escaped the heat yesterday by taking a day-trip to the beach.  Saturday was our last day of fun before the hustle and bustle of school!  I didn't take a single picture though.  Sad!  We all had fun....except for Kat.

Kat had her third litter of puppies yesterday after the beach trip.  Four males!  One white with brown spots, one fawn, one light brown, one dark brown.
