Girls Just Wanna Have Fun

The last several days have been devoted to cramming some fun into the last minutes of summer. We headed to a movie Thursday after lunch and playtime at McDonald's. I took Ashtyn and Sierra to see Space Chimps while Lauren, Mackenzie and 2 of our neighbors saw Journey to the Center of the Earth. The girls enjoyed the movies, I enjoyed the popcorn and Diet Coke. My movie let out a little earlier so we were waiting in the lobby and letting the little girls play in the arcade and out walked Billy Ray Cyrus! Now, living in Nashville you can expect to see a country star or two, but I don't think I can say that I've seen anyone just "out in public". This was a first and it was kind of thrilling. The girls were just wishing that Hannah Montana would follow behind. That would have made their day...maybe even their summer!
We've spent some time at the pool and the mall and Friday night the older girls and I headed to Borders and Barnes and Noble for Breaking Dawn parties. We had a great time checking out the costumes and being in on the excitement. I've been fighting Lauren for the book ever since and I HAVE to finish it tonight because finding time to read it has become a top priority! I was even tempted to feed the missionaries cereal last night so that I could have more time to read. It's a problem, I know!
