Vacation!

so, we will be leaving for n.c. at 3 am tomorrow morning!!! we are very excited, the girls say they don't want to go on a airplane, but i think in the end they will like it. plus, we are flying jetblue which has a built in tv for every seat and you get 36 channels of directv for free. i already checked the lineup and they will be happy to watch spongebob and dora! they would rather watch handy manny, and mickey mouse clubhouse but they do not get the disney channel. oh well! this is the first time flying with jetblue, but i have heard alot of great things about them. they also have satellite radio up there for free. they also have a ton of complimentary snacks and you can choose as many as you like! i definitely think this is a kid friendly airline, and parent friendly too. if the kids are happy and quiet it's sure to make the parents happy, right? here is a link to the info in the section they call "why you'll like us". you can get a tour of the planes, and click on the little tabs below and see all the things they have to offer. http://www.jetblue.com/about/whyyoulllike/index.html. i am already impressed, but i'll let you know about the service when we get back! the other cool thing about this year is that normally we have to fly out of manchester, n.h. which is about 2 1/2 hours away, but the tickets were cheap enough this year that we get to fly out of portland, me. which is only about 1 hour away! so, i may not be one for a while. i don't know if i will be able to post while i am gone or not. i may try to post, but not do the pictures till i get back, we'll see what happens. i hope everyone has a good week. i am off to finish cleaning my house so i can come home to a nice clean house next wednesday night!

i am going to end with some pictures that i took of latoya and jordan with a cat that adopted us for the day. a couple of days ago, the kids came in yelling the other day that there was a cat in the yard. i wasn't concerned, but went out to check it out and there was a pretty orange and white cat there. we have never seen this cat before, but it took to the kids, especially jordan as you will see from the pics. jordan thought it was his preschool teachers cat (she lives about 3 minutes from us), so he kept calling the cat "solomon". i called his teacher and she said no, her cat was home. we thought maybe it was hers since it really seemed to know and love jordan. now we think it is just a barn cat (there is a farm a couple of houses down from us). it stuck around the whole day and the kids asked to keep it. i told them no, but they could put some food and water outside for it. sadly, we haven't seen it since. anyway, here are some pictures:
