Back to the land of kids--onward Monday!

Yesterday, we went to Prospect, Ohio for my niece Bekah's 8th birthday. It was tons of fun and loads of laughter. We arrived to a grouping of hula girls and one hula boy having fun, flower bras included. Heather became one of the masses and they gallivanted around the park in the most perfect weather ever! After much yelling, dancing, running and yelling some more, Bekah opened her presents. She got the usual Hannah Montana themed presents and several Wizards of Waverley place things from us. The final and big present was yet to be revealed. Bekah opened the present and was ecstatic to receive the Hannah Montana movie! But that wasn't the main present! TJ, her dad, told her to open up the DVD and inside was an envelope that said, "this is a BIG gift." TJ and Wendy, her mom, told her to open and read it and her eyes got huge. She was quiet, smiling and just staring....not truly knowing what it all meant. TJ asked her, "do you know what that means?" She read the paper that said, "Hannah Montana world tour" or something like that. The funny part is that Bekah still didn't get it. TJ explained it to her and her eyes got bigger! (hard to believe). It took almost ten minutes for her to truly grasp the fact that she was going to a Hannah Montana concert. At that point, she proceeded to warn us that she was going to SCREAM! And, she did. It was so cute. We spent time at the park with cake and pizza to boot and then went back to TJ and Wendy's house and got to spend time with Walt and Roz. It was nice spending time together and Maycee, my other niece, was just too cute. She had done her part to read the ground in Braille and thus was covered with dirt! It was time for a bath! The thing is, this ten month old doesn't like the bathtub and loves taking a bath in the kitchen sink. It was adorable. She was surrounded by bubbles galore and was just so edible...too cute. We watched the Hannah Montana movie and spent good family time with each other. Then, it was bedtime and morning came before we knew it. Heather ended up sleeping with Kevin and me and I ended up with her ubberfeet in my face...typical.
Today, we stopped at Sams Club, got supplies for the flea market and groceries for home. When we arrived at the flea market, Heather wanted to work with Kevin and I went one row of vendors and found a sweatshirt in her size...yes, cool weather---gotta love it. She worked with her KDad and had a great day and I cooked, cleaned and cooked some more. So, now, it is time to go to sleep. I am ready for another week with my high school children. Onward and upward! But for now, sweet dreams.
