plain and simple

I have a 7 year old! yipes!!

I really can't believe my baby girl is seven- just craziness!!  Here are a few pictures from her weekend :-)  She had her party at the bowling alley- the adults bowled, too- it was fun!

She got a chess board and is now teaching her brother how to play- how cute are they in their pj's playing chess?

a quick list

1. I turned 37 this week- YIPES!  I can't believe I am three years away from 40. Freaks me out a bit.  In my fortune cookie from my birthday lunch- "Your fondest dream will come true within this year" - YAY!  Brian surprised me with these beautiful roses..

2. Kids had dentists appointments this week.  Aislin is finally going to see an orthodontist for an evaluation. Poor girl, her mouth is so small and her under-bite so big!

3. The last soccer games of the season were today.  Though I enjoy soccer, I am so glad to have our Saturdays free for a bit.

4. I have a haircut appointment on the 18th. I am thinking *really* short and maybe a change of color.  I need something new.

5. I painted our dining room a nice chocolate brown last weekend- I love it!  Now, I just need some art to fill the walls...

6.  A couple of photos from today- the Geography Celebration at the kids school- we celebrated Colombia- it was so much fun!

UH OH

Basketball season is starting.  The schedule is already posted to the fridge so I know when Brian (and the kids) will be unavailable!  Can you tell what team they love?
