These are our cats, Sandy, top, and Sally, bottom. They both love being outside when it's warm enough, and even when it's raining. When it is, Sandy goes out under our little table, and licks the fresh rainwater off of the little bench. Sally just likes to scare the birds, like she's doing in her picture (0r else she's just pretending to be a naughty squirrel), and to play 'Jungle Cat Sally!!'

First post!

I just got my very own blog set up. Finally! I've been begging Dad to do this for a few weeks now!

On this blog I will report about school (our Homeschool is called Holy Word Christian Girls Academy, with my sisters and I as the students), the kitties, Sandy & Sally, and Dance...

The name of my blog is from our school's team name -- the 'Flyers' since Irish dance is the only sport that we do, and you fly in the air when you leap.

I'm excited for school to be over with...today was game day; we played Yahtzee instead of doing math.

The cats are good, I'll get some pictures on here tomorrow.

My 1st solo dress came yesterday, it was made in Ireland by Siopa Rince. (Pronounced Shopa Rinca.)

I'll talk more later! Tomorrow actually.
