I got lucky and happened to remember to turn on the space shuttle launch. The girls were really into it and were bummed they had to cancel. Hopefully I remember to turn it on Saturday.

Today (day 40) Emma finished her farm. She planted crops - carrots, cabbage, strawberries, oranges, blueberries, turnips and lemons.
