Haircuts for Everyone

Paige appears to be a little tense about the shampoo. Now, Emma is an OLD Hand at this. Emma' scut came out really cute. Sophia takes this Haircutting very Seriously.

The Long Dogger

We went to the "LightShow " in Daytona at the museum. On the way there we ran into my bug picture, since everyone else has blogged one.
After the show we stopped at Long Doggers and Paige had a Foot-Long Hot Dog, although I believe she preferred the watermelon.

Sophia Ear Piercing

This procedure was quick. Two ladies , each took hold of one Sophie's ear lobes and counted 1,2,and 3. Then it was all over except for the tears. A kiss from Mom made it all better.

Storm Bros. Ice Cream

We stopped for Ice Cream before heading home. What a fun evening!

Haley and Alex Haley

Bobbie shares her Starbucks coffee.
These are statues of children listening to Alex Haley read the Book "Roots". Haley just made herself comfortable with the Family and she even tried to turn the pages for Alex.

Ducks@Dock

Dick, Courtney and Haley feed bread to Ducks. They gave us so much Bread @ Pusser's, that we stopped at the dock to feed the Starving Ducks.

Toys R US with Haley

We went to Toys R US on Friday. Dick has off on Fridays, so we were able to pick Haley up at the Child Care Center, and spend the Afternoon with her. At the toy store , Haley selected a Blonde Pigtailed baby dressed in Pink which she promptly named Sophia. Then I helped her select a Barbie...(Barbie in Aqua Blue with Matching Aqua Blue Mo-Ped). Before we left Haley needed a ride in the boat with Tigger. Next we went to California Pizza Kitchen. Finally, we went back to the house and watched Little Bear until it was time for her to go home. Dick and I really had an enjoyable afternoon.

Dinner @Kyma

We met Steph, Greg & Karen for dinner in Annapolis. Everything was delicious! It was a Mediterrean restaurant. It was open air, and begin to get a little chilly as the evening wore on. We had some coffee and tea to warm us up. Greg was obsessing with photographing the food.

Dance Class

The girls were good at this bar because they have had plenty of practice on the swings in the backyard
This is not a Conga Line, but the way the girls are transitioned from ballet to gymnastics class. Sophia and Paige are the ones with leg warmers. They both had very good balance on the Beam.

Visit from Dick 7.28.07

Dick came down for a weekend visit since the fares were a good price. Friday night we went to the Little Theatre in New Smyrna, after trying the Ocean Club Restaurant. I had yummy Conch Fritters and grilled veggies. I was trying to make good selections since I lost 5.6 # this week for a total of 9.8 #'s. The play I am afraid got a thumbs down, but maybe it will get better, since this was opening night. Saturday morning we went to the Art Walk on Flagella and stopped for Coffee at the Beach Buns. Saturday night we met with the St Peters Group for dinner. This time it was a little more difficult, since it was a homestyle cookin' meal. "Cocoa-Cola" ham and sweet potatoes. I had to dig into my extra WW points! I had some Bread Pudding for dessert, that was not wise, I had no ideas it was that many points! Sunday we woke up early and met Melissa and the girls at the Beach. Dick managed to finish his Harry Potter book that he bought on the Airplane. I thought I might need to hide it from him, because he read it every spare moment. We did go to see HP movie, which had rec'd 2.5 *'s , but I thought it was at least 3*'s. We grilled out, which I love to do and would do more often if it was more than me. So, I had a great weekend, I just hope my WW weigh-in won't be a bust. I'll need to go on strict selection while in Idaho.

WW Blueberry Cobbler

Today Paige and Sophia came over while Emma was at Art Camp, to help me make Blueberry Cobbler. I found the Recipe on WW site, and decide since Paige like Blueberries this would be a good treat to make, and it was only 3 points per serving. We made a blueberry mixture, including lemon zest, so the girls were able to use a zester. After we made the mixture , Sophia made the dough, and Paige rolled it into a Ball (then she decided she would try making a mountain). We then made 12 little balls, which was fairly simple since the girls had experience from playing with Play Dough. Sophia wanted to lick everything clean. Then we popped them in the oven, and Sophia kept careful watch. When Melissa and Emma returned from Art Camp, we had our little snack, but Paige declined, I quess since it was something different.
