We enjoyed a beautiful, oddly cool night with the family at the Busker Festival downtown. We saw a contortionist, missed the fire eaters unfortunately, but got to see a great performance by the Strong Woman, "Momma Lou." Below, Momma is de-manning her arch nemesis, "Steve" the audience guy suckered into the orange unitard right before tearing a phone book in half.

First Day of School
My babies are in the second grade. :( I can't believe it. It seems like yesterday that they were clinging to my leg and screaming not to go to daycare and now they could care less if I'm around. They hop on the bus like it's nothing.
They started a new school, yet again. Langston Hughes. Makena was so cute the week before school, she researched him and wrote a report all about him. Hmmm... I wonder who she will be most like? Maiki was more interested in getting a pretty teacher. :)
Needless to say, they are fitting right in. Even met up with an old friend, Haylee Kern. We are looking forward to a great year, and hopefully some peace in our lives!

The very, very, very hot fair...
As usual, I am REALLY far behind, yet again. This summer has come and gone way too fast. As of August 1, we are back in Lawrence. We left the mold and brown recluse spiders behind. Unfortunately, that means we are looking at several years of bad credit again, but we didn't feel like we had a choice.
We are all much happier now. Our first weekend back was the end of the Douglas County Fair. We promised the girls all week that we would take them. Unfortunately, the only day that worked out was the hottest day of the year! It was SO hot, we were practically melting. But, we suffered through and they had a lot of fun.
