2 of my Favorite Things Right Now...


Ok, so I don't normally post with videos but I found this video and loved it! For those of you who don't know this about me, I love flash mobs! I think it would be so fun to be a part of one someday. But what I am really into right now is Ujam. About a month ago I really made a goal to loose weight so I started going to the gym. I found my Ujam class. I immediately fell in love. It's like a hip-hop dance class where you just have fun and sweat like crazy! Oh, I am in love! So, I am down 10 pounds so something must be working! I am so excited for the future and I love feeling so good!

SF Academy of Science

I can't believe it's almost been another month since my last post. Time sure seems like it is flying by! We just seem so busy, but I was thankful when spring break came around. Ahh, sleeping in, having breakfast at 10am, hanging out in jammies all day and just having a nice relaxing time. No homework or practice, no alarm to set and no schedule! I love having a break from all of that, even if it is just for a week. Can you tell how ready I am for summer break? Well, one of our days during spring break was spent at the Academy of Science in SF. My friends Sarah and Judy and their families met us there. We spent the day exploring, running around and just plain enjoying our day! The girls each had a friend that was near their age, so they had fun. It always seems to go smoother, and without fights, when they have friends with them. I am thankful for such great friends and am thankful we had the chance to go and have such a fun adventure! Waiting to go inside. The sun was in the girls eyes so it looks nice and warm, but it actually was freezing! Macey in front of the water
Molly with the baby chicks
Abby and Sophia in front of the huge egg

Sophia, Macey and Abby with the star fish. It looks like Abby was being the little momma and explaining something to them before they touched the star fish..so funny
This huge tank with all sorts of fish. There happened to be a diver cleaning the glass from the inside. Every time he would go to wipe a smudge, the girls thought he was waving to them..that was pretty funny too.

Abby and Reagan outside the gift shop. These were their choice of souvenirs. I love Reagan's face in this picture! Abby loves these glasses and has even worn them to school! I can't believe it, but I got out of the gift shop only spending $12.50 for all 4 girls! I made them buy the cheap stuff, but they were happy and so was I!



We really had such a great time and I am so glad that we went into SF to have this fun trip, even though I was a little timid about driving into SF all by myself. I had never driven alone into the city, but it ended up being not so bad! Now, we are back to alarm clocks, homework and practices. How many days till summer break?
