Cocoa, Peanut Butter, and Gators!


Cocoa and Peanut Butter are hamsters. What??!!? Hamsters??!! In my house!!??! You ask why all the !!??!?!?! That's because I really don't do the animal thing. So, NO, they're not in my house. Abbey and Jessi have been talking about hamsters constantly since they each have friends who have them, and Jessi discovered Tumbleweed the Hamster on U-Tube. (She thinks it is hilarious.) Anyway, my mom started thinking about getting them and turns out my dad had pet hamsters as a kid (which he loved). SO, Saturday the girls went with Grandma and picked out these two little hamsters. They are kind of cute, actually! It's a win/win for me! The kids are happy and I'm happy!

Abbey and Jessi decided to joing the Gators Swim Team this year. It is SO MUCH FUN for me to watch! It brings back a lot of memories...especially where they are swimming at Sky View. They have their first Intrasquad Meet today and are really excited about it.
