TwiceGirlies and First Day of Summer Vacation

Today is the first day of my TwiceGirlies Summer vacation. Well, it seems more like Spring still than the beginning of Summer. All this morning it has been overcasty,breezy then real windy. My Buzzy Bee flag is whipping all around on my front porch and the flag my parents gave me at the beginning of Spring is twisted around my backyard porch awning.

Do my twins care if it is breezy or windy outside, no, not a bit. They have their "camping" tent set up on the grass in the backyard and having a blast. Mommy wants them to dress warm and they like to dress for Summer weather....all year long...

I do hope the weather gets warmer some time this week. I can not wait to dress is shorts and tanks again. I am not, nor will ever been, a fan of weather below 71 degrees, especially with wind whipping all around.

TwiceGirlies and Final Days of Kindergarten: Monday thru Friday

So, this is indeed my twins last week of school, kindergarten! Oh goodness, this year went by so fast, I can hardly believe it. My twins learned so much this year. When I was a kindergartner in the 70s, I do not recall ever having to "learn" anything. All I did was play indoors with colored blocks, sit on a colored carpet and who knows what else. I played outdoors in the kindergarten playground too.

My twins, on the other hand, had to learn all their letters, numbers at least up to 100, write a sentence (yeah a sentence), learn about colors, shapes (which they learned about at home and pre school), learned to take direction from their teacher, learn about a variety of animals through song, went on two field trips and a school carnival too.

For this final week of school, my twins went to school and left school early. They watched two movies, played some board games and on their last day of school will have a PARTY!!

Oh wow, it is sad to see my twins growing up, right before my eyes. Yes, I am the sentimental type. I mean, how can a Mother not be.

TwiceGirlies at Auntie Leenie's Home Last Weekend

Last weekend Daddy, Mommy and Twins went to Auntie Leenie's home so Daddy could attend a Comic Book Convention. Uncle Mike went with Daddy to see what was available that Daddy would like. While Daddy and Uncle Mike were at the Comic Convention, Mommy, Auntie Leenie and Twins playing in the backyard. We played with the doggies and the new golf sets Leenie got for the Twins from a local grocery store.
My twins love playing in Leenie's backyard, especially with the doggies and around the pond. The best thing about my Aunt's backyard is, well everything. It is a little piece of paradise, sitting on a mountain top in the Silicon Valley. It has taken my Aunt and her husband years to make their backyard into what it is today.

While at my Aunt's home, my twins also helped her make dinner. My twins love being in the kitchen baking or cooking. The photos I took in my Aunt's kitchen were out of focus, but they are still cute.

Besides the cooking photos, the rest of the photos I took are amazing! I love them and the setting. I really like taking photos with my twins outside, in nature. That way, I get to showcase not only my twins, but the beauty around them that the Lord has made.



















TwiceGirlies Mom Tries The BRYTON PICK

A couple weeks ago, maybe three weeks ago, I was sent some floss to try out. This floss is really different. The look, the feel and especially the design. I have never seen this type of floss before, much less heard of it. With this floss, it is reusable up to 30 days, it is soft, with flexible edges and is thin. Yes, this floss is thin enough to fit in a purse, wallet or shirt/pants pocket.

If a child or adult wear braces, this is the best floss. With this floss, it will not begin to rip apart. This is amazing and will, more likely than not, replace the "old fashioned" floss. This is something that should have been invented decades ago.

This new dental floss comes in a variety of colors, will protect against tooth decay and gum inflammation too. This most important thing is removing food from your teeth. This can be used all day, everyday and will become part of your daily tooth cleaning routine.
