watch out, williams sisters!

On Saturday morning, John took advantage of the beautiful weather and took the girls to play some tennis while I worked (blech!) and did a little shopping (yay!). They had tons of fun and the girls actually learned something...as evidenced by the fact that they would strike a pose and yell things like "Ready position!" and "Swing through!" randomly throughout the weekend.

 

 


 

The rest of the weekend was relatively quiet, but good. We had some fantastic doughnuts and watched as our girls immediately went into sugar shock (we're talking sprinting-round-the-restaurant sugar high). We grocery shopped. We spent a lot of time outside yesterday, too, enjoying the unseasonably warm weather.

The only downside of the weekend was that when John and the girls went to Target to get A her own tennis racket (E already had one), he bought E a Hannah Montana microphone. One that lights up and plays a 20 second clip of what could quite possibly be the worlds most annoying song ever. And E brought it with her everywhere this weekend and played that #&$^%(#)@*@ song every 20 seconds. E loves it. A loves it (and is now running around yelling "Anna Ontana! Anna Ontana!") The only bright spot in this is that John is more annoyed by the damn thing than I am...which is good because he who buys the annoying toy should suffer greatly for it.

Law of Shopping: It is physically impossible to leave Target with ONLY the thing you went there to buy.

yeah- Savannah got a HM guitar for Christmas (thanks, grandma) and I hear snipettes of those songs all the time. But it is really cute to see her singing along to Hannah Buh-tana, as she calls her.
