It's 28 degrees, a bit overcast, as the sun peaks through the gray. We just walked the girls and Coco to school. A group meets at the top of their Pipestem each morning, parents walking both kids and dogs to school. It's about a 15 minute walk to school, a nice way for both parents and kids to start the day, as long as it's not raining. And the kids don't seem to mind it, in fact, they like walking with their friends. Coco tried to run the entire way and really got upset when we let the girls go off on their own at the school. I had to pick him up and take him back down to the street to settle him down. The girls were up around 7:00, had their breakfast and smoothie, so they could play Barbies downstairs before school. They had three friends over yesterday, spent the day in the basement getting their dolls organized, so they wanted to play more this morning. They both were in good spirits, happy to go to school, especially Halle as Evie is coming in at noon to help out with her class.
Just got back from Safeway, to get eggs and an 8 pack of Nutty Buddies. We obviously have a household full of Nutty Buddy lovers, starting with Evie, followed by the girls, then me. It's been a gray day, in the 30's, and we head off to pick the girls up in a few minutes. Cody has his jacket on already, he's leashed, and ready to go. Usually, he thinks it's a game when we try to put on his leash, so there are four of us trying to trap him, so we can put on the leash. Then, there are times when he waits patiently, cannot wait to have his leash put on, and go. We are at the mercy of the whims of a dog!
It's 9:20 and Halle is sleeping, Hayden still reading. It's been a fun night, pasta and meatball dinner, with Nutty Buddies to follow, and the girls were in rare form, laughing, giggling, having a good old time. It's nice they don't have school tomorrow, just swimming for Hayden at 11:30 and then off Patsi's (my sister Ellen) house for dinner, about a half hour drive from Bristow.
