Good Times, My Friends!

Aaaahhh... It was good times today!

Mom took Zelda and I to the Atlanta Botanical Garden to meet up with other Blythe folks. Even though it was scorching hot, it was so much fun!

We took our first picture at the fountain near the cafe. One of the Maddies suggested we go on a swim, but our moms wouldn't let us. Bummer.


Then we took a picture with a huge dragonfly in the fountain.


We found a little bench under a shady arbor for a short rest. We needed it. It was HOT out! Mom and I were sweating like chickens in a pillow factory. Of course, Zelda was just fresh as a daisy (as usual).


There was a relaxing fountain and water lilies or something. Zelda is such a fat-head. I can barely see over her in this picture!


We took in a little sun out on the lawn together. Zelda's being a total fat-head again! This time with poor Summer.

Zelda: Hey! What about you? You're blocking Tory!


Mommy took some solo shots of Zelda and I, but it was too hot... Everything was all dry and droopy like granny boobies. All those thirsty, thirsty plants...


Zelda found some flowers, but they were just as thirsty as the ones I found.


It was so hot that my feet got kinda stinky. Zelda really didn't want to smell my feet, but I made her do it anyway since I'm the older sister.


I was getting cranky from the heat, so mommy made us settle down and take a time out on the benches.

I guess I do kinda like Zelda... She's alright!


Mommy's lovely friend Kristen made cupcakes for her birthday. Thank you so much, Kristen! You are too awesome!!! We are so happy that mom has such cool friends.

Zelda ate her cupcake like a little lady...


And I gobbled mine up quickly...


Mommy scolded me for getting icing on my face, though. That's OK - it was so perfect and yummy that it was worth it!

After our big day out, mom and dad put Zelda and I down for a nap while they had a date afternoon together. They went to see Superbad and ate dinner at Top Spice.

What a great day!

Molli-ment Part Deux

Mom's work is so nice to her. She got to leave early today because they have Summer Fridays. Since she was home early, we worked on Molli-ment together.

We put the final touches on the Molli-ment. Flowers! Are they fun-tastic or what?


Here they are, all ready to go!


Mom also made some cupcakes, but they were TERRIBLE!!! Mom's never been great at following recipes. They were way too sweet, undercooked, and oily.

Seriously, have you ever had an oily cupcake? It tastes about as good as it sounds, which is really good... Good for me to poop on!

Thank goodness we have daddy around. Otherwise, Zelda and I would be stuck eating the gross food that mommy makes.

Molli-ment

Zelda and I love Re-ment because every box is a great surprise inside, so we thought it might be fun to make some blind boxes for the Atlanta Blythe meet on Saturday.

What will be in them? It's a secret... Everyone will find out on Saturday, though!

I shall call them Molli-ment!!!


Mom's into crafts, so she helped out. She helped us match papers with ribbons and stuff. Zelda has better handwriting than I do, so she took care of the labels. I was the official adhesive engineer.

I'm pretty good with glue... Zelda's going to get a nice surprise the next time she brushes her hair.

All that crafting has me plumb tuckered out... We shall finish the Molli-ment tomorrow night!

Cake + Steak = GREAT

Dad is great! He gives us chocolate cake!

Zelda and I gave dad three cheers today because he made us a chocolate cake. He says he made it for mom's birthday... Sure...

Dad made it all from scratch and it's the most wonderful and delicious cake ever. It's so chocolatey and moist! Don't worry, we'll leave mom a slice.

Mom and dad went to see the Simpsons movie today and then went to Houston's for mom's birthday dinner.

Dad had a veggie burger and mom had a juicy steak. How in the world is daddy such a big and strong guy when he's eating all those girly vegetables?

Daddy's Little Girls

Move over mommy! We're the apple of daddy's eye now.

For mommy's birthday, daddy bought us new shoes! They are made by Princess Sara and came all the way from Taiwan.

Aren't they just fantastic??? We really like them.

Thank you, daddy! We love you! (Mommy's OK too.)

A Tisket, A Tasket, a Molli and a Zelda in a Basket

An interesting basket thing arrived in the mail today. Mom found it on Ebay and said it would be a new carrier for Zelda and I.

Zelda and I checked it out to make sure we were OK with it...

Me: Mom, you really want us to ride around in this rickety old thing?
Zelda: It smells kinda funky...


Me: Well, if we gotta... We might as well stretch first!
Zelda: Molli, you look like a goon. Who stretches like that???
Me: (sticks tongue out at Zelda)


Me: Here we go!!! Banzai!!!
Zelda: Eeee!!!


Me: Mom - Zelda's hogging all the space!
Zelda: Hey! You're one to say, bigfoot!


Me: Scoot over, Zelda!
Zelda: Ooof! You should eat less cupcakes, wide load!


Me: Alright, mom! We're ready!


Me: It sure is dark in here...
Zelda: Mommmmmm!!! Molli farted!
Me: Hey! She who smelled it dealt it!

How Do You Like Them Apples?

Apparently, mom and dad like them Apples a lot.

Mom really studied her butt off this semester for cost accounting and federal tax law. Dad thought she deserved a nice gift. Isn't he a peach?

So they bought a nifty new box today from Apple. It said M-A-C-B-O-O-K on the front. I think it is the mack-daddy of books.

Zelda and I opened the box to see what was inside.

I did most of the heavy lifting because Zelda wasn't much help. She was mostly worried about paper cuts and broken nails.

What would mom and dad do without me? Zelda's the beauty, but I'm the muscles AND the brains. I am scrappy for my size.

Ultra also wanted to help out. Evidently, the box has a flavor.


Ahhh... A job well done! Gimme a cookie!
