Off SXM and back to IA

On June 18th I left St Maarten to return to Iowa for the summer.  I will be back doing wedding plans, taking care of the dogs, and having some fun.  
This is is long overdue considering it is now June 30th. 
When I got off the plane- My mom, sister, dad and Kaylee picked me up.
We endured the 4 hour car ride then finally back to Cedar Rapids.  When I got back I had two happy furr-babies waiting...
Sorry the pictures are blurry but they were just running around really fast.
Then it was off to bed for some rest.  After a long nights sleep, Kaylee was ready to show me some new things she learned.
WOW- sitting up, crawling, pulling herself up onto things... such a big girl!
Also- Maggie and Fritz have been spending alot of time together but Anna wanted me to know it was okay because she also found a new friend...
And her friend feeds her! Everytime Kaylee is in her highchair eatting she has to let Anna have part of what she is eatting then she lets her lick her hands clean... I think I know why Anna likes her :-)
The dogs have been enjoying the backyard

We found out Kaylee loves the water!

CIA Boys night


The CIA Boys Night
The CIA male faculty decided as one of their last nights here, they should go out for a boys night.  The theme of the boys night was John (aka Johnny Cakes).  You may ask how to you have a theme centered around a person?!? 
Well Johnny Cakes always wears a Caribbean cross necklace and a wild Hawaiian shirt... I mean everyday! So the guys picked out Hawaiian shirts for each other and they each bought a Caribbean Cross.  The shirts they picked out for each other were pretty wild! And the BEST part, Johnny Cakes didn't even know there was a theme! It was a surprise!
The whole group at BB's
Frank (grade 6 teacher), Sean (Science teacher), and Brad (PE teacher)
Mike (Guidance counselor)
Johnny Cakes showing up for the Surprise (notice he is already in a Hawaiian shirt but they got him a new one anyways).
Rob (Business teacher) is getting excited for the night!  Notice they picked out not only a shirt for him but pants too.

Cathee, Susan, John, Jackie, Rob, ME, and Michelle
All the boys!
