Yesterday was a great end to a weekend! We all got together at my Dad's & Debbie's house to celebrate Debbie's Birthday. It is always so nice to be able to get together with your family! We had a great time playing Catch Phrase, Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader (and no I am not), and eating Chinese food and cake and ice cream.

Today I was whisked back to reality. It was hard being out of school for so long (over 6 weeks), which makes it hard to get back into the swing of things. I know that it won't take long to be right back where I once was. This semester is definitely going to be a challenge! I guess that is a good thing.

Again in conclusion, here are my pathetic children (cats) doing what they do best- doing absolutely nothing! Yes, I am a little jealous. This is how I found them when I came upstairs from doing homework. Then a few minutes later Maura (the brown one) was cleaning Emily- she hated every minute of it as you can tell. :-)
