Great Weekend!!!!!

Kaleb is home for the weekend! YAY! He got home early Friday evening. The kids went out to Hamburger Heroes for dinner and then the boys went to a movie with friends.

Had a lot of fun on Saturday. Got up early and had breakfast at The Beacon. They have the best breakfast in town! From there we went and visited mom and then went to Derby to visit Rhonda in rehab. She continues to do well.

We finally made it out to Tanganikya Wildlife Park in Goddard. It was a beautiful day, mid 70's with a mild breeze, and the park is beautiful! The baby tigers were precious, but because they are behind glass the pictures aren't that great.


We saw exotic monkeys, giraffes, rhinos, bunnies, turtles, alpacas, lemurs and white tigers. The twins hand fed the alpacas and lemur.










It's a little expensive, but worth seeing the animals up close and personal. I imagine the park will continue to grow and get more and more animals.

GREAT FUN!

We also did grocery shopping at Leeker's and then watched the Wildcats beat Texas Tech! GREAT game and it was fun watching it with Kaleb.

Corby put a new alternator in his car this morning. Kaitlin fixed me and the boys pancakes and bacon for breakfast. Yummy! We went to Atwood's and got Kaleb a new Carhartt coat for the winter, and then went to Sam's to pick up a few necessities. Now it's time to relax before dinner. Corby is fixing chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and corn on the cob.

First Day of School

It's tradition at my house to take a "first day of school" picture. The kids get less and less thrilled every year, but I still do it. Here are the twins before they left for their first day of senior year: Kind of funny that they both wore gray - unplanned of course! I think Kaitlin is putting in her plug for the college she'd like to go to. They had a good day. Found out that at 1800 students, Heights is over their limit by 400 students!!! OMG! I'm not sure what the answer is, but it is WAY TOO CROWDED! I think the northeast side of town needs a new high school. Something needs to be done! Just finished my Nora Roberts book, and have started New Moon, the second book in Stephenie Meyer's vampire series. Kaitlin took Abby to the vet yesterday to get her last distemper shot and a rabies shot. The vet told her that she comes from a line of very strong / physically superior cats. I knew there was some reason that she climbs EVERYWHERE in the house, including u...
