Tomorrow is Zoe's 5th birthday but we celebrated it today since there was a early release day at school and Mimi's kindergarten class was able to stay home. Shelley had a small pizza party for Zoe at the house and afterward they all decorated their own cupcakes. There was a houseful of kids. There was Zoe, Blake, Mimi, Alex, Halle, Erin, Olivia, and their siblings Bailey, Braden, Nate, Liam and Patrick. The kids all had loads of fun together.
When all was said and done, Mimi stayed at Zoe's while mom went back to Costco for more Christmas decorations. Mom absolutely loves having a Costco close to our home nowadays.
Then it came time to pick Mimi and Blake up from Zoe's and bring them home. Zoe was wanting to come over to the house also and so she did. While the kids were playing Kung Fu Panda warriors (Zoe=tigress, Mimi=monkey, Blake=master shifu), mom was outside hooking up our generator. The weatherman says that we are in for a wind and rainstorm tonight and mom does not feel like going out in the dark to hook it up in case the power goes out like it did last Sunday. We are expected to have snow tommorrow and Sunday. "Woo Hoo!!!" says Mimi.
This morning while sitting at the breakfast table, mom noticed a bald spot on Mimi's head. What possessed the girt to cut her own hair AGAIN, I have no clue. When I asked Mimi WHY she cut her hair again, I got the universal answer of "Idon't know". EGADS! When I mentioned that we may have to go see Maya about trimming her hair, you would have thought the world had come to an end. "I don't wanna go see Maya! I wanna let my hair grow out!" cried Mimi. Well it sure helps if you don't take the scissors to your head. Mom then figured out that she could camaflouge it.
