Here goes....

Should I start with an apology?  I haven't posted in quite a while.  But apologies are dry and boring.  Unless you are crying, and then they are wet and boring.  So, anyway, I'm back!  I won't even try to catch up, because that would be boring (see above).  Let me tell you about what floats or sinks my boat right now.
Toe shoes:
I just got my first pair.  I knew they would hurt, but I didn't know they would HURT!  Yowza! 
Braces:
They're supposed to come off this August.  In the meantime, they hurt, but they dont' HURT like toe shoes.  (See above).
Trampoline: We just got one!  I use it for reading.  Really!  Try it.  Bring a book and a pillow and just lay there.  One word of advice: watch out for little brothers who would prefer to jump than read.
Violin: I'm playing some Suzuki book 6 classical music (Fioco Allegro, for anyone interested) but adding some fun movie music this summer, like Indiana Jones theme and Be Our Guest, plus lots of classic fiddling.
Bike: I got a hot pink/aqua beach cruiser for my birthday!  It is one sweet ride, with a nice squishy comfy seat. 
Nook: I don't have one yet.  But I will, I will!  I've got my pennies saved and I'm just waiting for Aunt Leslie to make it to Utah.
 Raspberry Lemonade.. Bars: Have you tried them?  Maybe I will post the recipe...
Bottlecap Necklaces: My friend Katie got me started on these.  Any old bottle cap can make a fun piece of jewelery. 
That'll do it for today.  Will you stick around and read?  I promise to post every day for the next week.  Leave me a comment and let me know that you are here.  Hello?  Hello?  Tell me what floats or sinks your boat!  xoxoxo Sailor

Hi, Sailor. It's just me, your mother. Hmm, what do I like? I like your blog, and I am glad to see you doing it again. I also like air conditioning, summer vacations, summer nail polish, fudgecicles, and visiting cousins! xoxoxo, E

ps...What floats my boat? Comic books, coming to your house, going to the beach with you guys, cubscouts, disneyland, late nights with friends, swimming in grandpa's pool especially at parties.

Hi Sailor.
This is Ivy.
I am sure your point shoes really hurt, but maybe you will get used to them.
Sometimes I stand on my tippy toes like real point shoes.
How is ballet? Is it very hard? Have you started on your point shoes yet?
Mine is getting hard, too.
Love you, Ivy

Ivy-
Pointe shoe do really HURT! Be carefull when you stand on your tippy toes though. It can damage your feet. Ballet is hard. I have a point class soon. We are going to sew ribbons on our pointe shoes. I love you!
