Yep....It's out!!

To quote a famous songster...."School's out for summer!" I almost put that song on my blog, but some of the lyrics were a little sketchy, so I'll just let you sing that in your head.

I got my Family Fun magazine yesterday in the mail and it had some fun ideas for the last day of school, so I recruited a friend's children I was watching this morning to help me color this banner and I stuck it across the door into the house. Corben was excited and I did get it on film, I'll have to download it to youtube since it's at least a minute and a half. I had him run through it [wanted it to tear in half like the football banners of high school days] but the wrapping paper I used must have been made of strong fibers. It never did break, but he ripped the tape and then it came tumbling down.

I've been busy trying to get the last plants of my garden in the ground, but the weather has been unreal here - it's the 6th or 7th day in a row of 100+ temperatures. It's actually scorching hot, and my grass is really feeling it too. We're officially the animal kingdom here right now, with 6 animals in the casa. Yikes, I know and that's not counting the kiddos ;] 3 dogs, 2 cats and a hamster to boot. The family that owns the two dogs and hamster will be back towards the end of the week and the animal house will be calm and still, and I'm certain that Lexi will be bored stiff.
