Strong man and lion tamer

Mesa and Ashton had a school play a few weeks ago. It was all about the circus. Ashton decided that it was necessary for him to take the role of "strong man". He lifted a stick with a couple of black balloons attached to the end to look like weights. He worked it and made it look very hard. Mesa was chosen to be the "lion tamer". She had her own whip and got to crack it while the lions were running loose. She was loving it!! For once she was in charge.

Off to Texas

I was so lucky!!! I got the chance to go visit my sister in Plano, TX to help out with her triplets while her husband was at a wedding for the weekend. I felt like I was mainly there to kiss and hug all 3 of them. My sister has it all under control. They have a strict routine, sleep from 6pm to 6am, take 3 naps and in between all that my sister takes time to wash and sterilize bottles, make baby food and more. She is quite amazing. I was loving it, but it was really hot for the first few days. I am not a hot weather girl. I like it about 75 and that's it. It's a good thing I live in Idaho where summers don't show up til mid July. I had a little drama on the way home, it seems that weeping and wailing will get you on a plane that has already closed its gate. I had 30 seconds to run about 400 yards to the plane, sometimes my sprinting skills do come in handy!
