What? School is Starting...Soon?

Mama Soph's Dream vacation came true! Put daddy and 2 kids in the back yard to sleep for 4 nights!

I can't believe it....I haven't logged on for over a month, and suddenly school will start in 2 weeks! Where has time gone? I guess I'm having too much fun playing with the hammies, birdies, fishies and screaming at the squabbling kids (^_^)!

12 year old Kobee meets his 2 ten week old hammie sisters!

We went to Vegas for a super relaxing trip! We did nothing but eat, swim, and watch Olympics! With 2 suites with 2 kichens, 2 hot tubs and 4 TVs, this is one of the most laid back trip we've ever had! There was a heat wave going on since the opening day of Olympics....and we've yet to see the end of it.... It felt like we're living in the desert for the last 3 weeks! Very not fun!

We had a good time hanging out with family members as well! Uncle Dan and Auntie Jennifer (Groom and Bride) came to visit us all, and we had a great time together!

Sushi lunch with Uncle Daniel after visiting Dentist Uncle Eric!

Baby Elie and brother Kyle came to our home to visit, and Caleb & Abbie enjoyed hanging out with them!

Caleb was very curious about baby Elie.... He discovered that empty Danimal containers (washed) are fun for babies!

Abbie's new "baby doll"!

We had a good summer hanging out with our friends too!

My Sweet Ju from New York!

Happy Birthday Eric, Charlie and Olivia!

Stephanie comes to play! Making Strawberry Muffins!

Having the hammies join our family was one of the most wonderful and exciting things that happened to us! We have so much fun with them!! They are hilarious and fun, anticipating 'open cage time' so we can hold them and give them yummy treats!

Abbie's favorite pastime.... Hammie in the Hand....

The Sunflowers are taller than me!!

Eat your Veggies, everyone! Napa Cabbage is Yummy!

Prince Charming joined Frogalina (Abbie said she needed a boyfriend) on 8/17....
But I think this little guy (who loves to show off his body) should be named "FLASHER"....don't you think? (^_^)

I must say....the only bad thing that happened this summer was the Plague that hit the Soph residence three days ago ~  Annoying Ant Armies! I was still silently boasting that we have had no ants in the past three years! Me and my big mouth....Seriously considering getting an anteater...

Enjoy the Last Few Dog Days of Summer Everyone!! It was fun and it's time for a Fresh Fall Start! Woohoo!! (^_^) Thankful for you all!
