GOOD SATURDAY MORNING, BUDDIES!

Haaaaaaaaaappy Saturday, Buddies!  How are you enjoying your weekend?  ;o)  What's up for today?  Big plans?  Fun plans? 


I'm going to spend a large part of the day making my dad's Father's Day present.  The budget doesn't allow for much of a purchase, so I'm putting together a Christmas anticipation kit for him.  My dad is crazy about Christmas.  He keeps a running countdown of the days left, pesters my mom to let him put up the tree in October, and practically bribes the kids to tell him what we've gotten him.  I got an inexpensive day planner (Walmart - $3.97!) and I'm going to write reminders to him like, "Call Karen - remind her that Christmas is only 98 days away"  and  (sometime in October) "Take Barbara (my mom) to store - sigh loudly whenever we pass a Christmas tree."  I'm also going to cut up some white tissue paper to make a bag of "snow" that he can play with whenever the waiting gets to be too much.  The grocery store had some air-fresheners on sale with Christmasy scents the last time I was there - $1!  If they still have them, I'm going to get one, so he can take a snort every now and then.  I'm still trying to think of other stuff to put in there.  I think this may be the first time I've beaten my Dad to the punch with a "Christmas" present!  (I'm even going to wrap it in Christmas wrapping.)


I hope you have sun and fun and all kinds of good stuff today, Buddies.  Have a great day!

What kind of dancing does Kiersten do? I know she's really little, but is there a specific type (jazz, tap, ballet)?


Hope it was a really fun day!
