a dog operetta, belly dancing, root beer floats, chuck taylors and e.t.

thursday night at the walker 

for open field

making bracelets 

with your best friend

 and watching a dog operetta

at dinner on friday

we saw a belly dancer

and ran through the dancing water

in the park

while we waited for an 

outdoor movie to start

on saturday there 

was a trip to the mall for 

new sneakers

now we are "sneaker twins"

as penelope would say. 

sunday we went to excelsior

and had hot dogs and root beer floats!

then the excelsior beach-

we ended the weekend

on the deck

watching E.T.

sun water swim

underwater swimmer

who can swim for diving sticks

and hold her breath for 7 seconds.

that's huge.

the weekend

we went to the 

ramsey county fair

on saturday.

it was hot.

there were midway games,

a helicopter ride

and a funhouse!

on sunday

we spent most of the day

back at the pool

hanging out

and having fun.

after the pool-

we went to bastille day

we watched a fire juggler

and helped him out-

and saw more friends.

the last few days...

there was some serious

kitty love going on

between these two

and an outing to a little street fair

in white bear lake

penelope had a feather

put in her hair

and did some dancing

and watching

and this!

we also cheered on

the brothers dorow

in a triathalon

(they did great!)

-there's also been more swimming with friends

and a trip to lake harriet

for more swimming and 

hanging out
