Okay.  I knew I was going to have trouble keeping up with this.  Let's see...On Tuesday after violin, Rylie and I stopped at Target to get a few things for the house.  One item on my list was "something" to keep Matt's "pile" on the kitchen counter in and somewhat organized.  Rylie had the idea of the week!!  She found a wooden bread box and thought that would work.  The light bulb went off!!  I told her if we could find a stainless bread box, that would be perfect!!!  They had one!  And Matt's "stuff" has been hidden ever since.  No more clutter!!!!!

Yesterday, we went to the Columbus zoo.  Wow, have they made changes.  We haven't been since Easter and at that time there was a lot of construction going on.  There is a new waterpark and an area called Jungle Jack's Landing.  Jungle Jack's Landing has rides ($1-2 each).  I told the kids they could pick each pick one.  Rylie chose the roller coaster and screamed the whole way.  We had a blast.  I love roller coasters.  Isaac and I kept our hands up most of the way.  Rylie's hands went down at the top of the first hill.  She still had a blast.  Isaac chose the log ride.  I did not go to the zoo with the intention of getting wet.  But since the kids weren't tall enough to ride without an adult behind each of them, I had to ride 2 times.  Isaac and I got wet, but Rylie and I got soaked!!!  I was able to wring my hair out and my clothes were drenched.  It did cool me off a bit while we were walking around the zoo.
