Best Monday ever

We got to have Hope for another sleep-over last night so Michelle and Charlie could go for a 6 am swim with the sharks. Hope was Erica's teacher today and did all of her school with her plus they cleaned up Erica's room and made the beds. (Erik and I were trying to divise a plan to keep her a few more days.) Needless to say it was so awesome having her here. All of our school was done by 1:30 so the kids got out early to play. The boys had a blast playing basketball and football with Charlie while he was over. I thought about flatting their tires so they'd all have to stay over but it's their anniversary...who'd want to stay with our wild family on their anniversary...I sure wouldn't! Oops...did I say?!

Erica's is riding Hope's old bike. It amazes me Hope was ever this small.
Michelle just about had the rip stick mastered after only a few tries, a little bit longer and she would have been off doing tricks with the kids. Bet she'd be a champ at snowboarding too. Evan is completely thrilled to have something he is better at than Charlie!
Oh, Debbie (Michelle's mom), no worries, here is proof they weren't shark breakfast.
Doesn't Michelle look like she could totally be Tanya's sister?
