Mia, my little squirrel....

As you may remember, last time, I let you know what was on my list of Birthday wants. One thing that I wanted was a new camera - for two reasons. One, because mine was missing and, two, because I want a nicer camera. I did not receive a camera for my birthday, so I did a bit of thinking... I had noticed that Mia had started "finding" things that we couldn't. You know, missing sippy cups, favorite missing stuffed animals, woobies, etc. So, I asked Mia if she could find my camera. About an hour later, she comes to me and climbs on to the couch. She starts digging around under the cushions and in the crevice where the pieces come together. I go to help her, and what do I find? My camera!

On a side note, I got the two jerseys and a bracelet (not on the list) from my wonderful family!

School is starting again next Friday. Olivia is SOOOOOOOO excited! She's a big first grader! Where does the time go?

On the horizon: Cody's birthday party, Brookfield Zoo, Kansas and Roots Festival and Jen's Wedding. Next time we come back, we should have pics from all of this!
