My aunt, uncle, and cousins from Chicago are down for the weekend to celebrate the little ones third birthday. They are identical twin girls who are so cute. It amazes me how half of the family can tell the girls apart and the other half can't. I'm in the half that can't. 5 seconds after I get told which one is which I forget again. I have given up on trying to figure it out.
The one thing the girls love the most about my town is all the animals they get to see. Yesterday, some of my aunts and I took them on a horse ride. They can ride one all by themselves as long as someone is leading the horse. It was also the first time in about ten years that I have ridden a horse. I was a lot of fun.
They mainly love the cats. For Christmas they received two cats from one of my aunts, but since their dad is allergic, the cats have to stay at her house. The majority of the time spend in town is with those cats. They also love to come visit my cat. My cat is huge compared to theirs and they love him. They came over for about an hour today to play with him.
My sister played her first college tennis tournament this weekend. From what I heard from her she won the backdraw in singles and got second in the backdraw in doubles. That isn't too bad for her first tourney. Nice job sis.

99 wins
So I haven't said much in a while but the main thing that I have experienced lately was a record breaker. I broke my school's record for most doubles wins in a high school career. Yesterday I won my 99th doubles match beating the previous record of 98.
I was going to get my 100th win this weekend in a tournament in Bloomington, but the weather has cancelled it. I am not worried though. I will be in triple digits soon enough.

Dreams
Not enough can be said about dreams. They are one of the most fasinating things of this world. How a person can go to sleep and while sleeping do something unimaginable. How in reality a dream is extremely short, but they seem like they go on for days. How sometimes you can remember them and sometimes you can't. How random the people in them are. How you can wake up with the same emotion you ended the dream with.
I bring this up because last night I had one of the weirdest dreams possible. I can't really explain it because some people would be questioning my sanity if they heard it. Let's just say it involved the olympics, gangs, important people of my church, german sheperds, and a huge house. I can remember a good percentage of my dreams, but the this one is different. I remember this one in much greater detail. Maybe it means something. That would be scary. Maybe the dream will continue tonight. If it does hopefully it's a little happier ending.
