Plastic, really?

Last year, my bestie Amy visited from Idaho.  

Our good friend Aimee joined us in the reunion too. 

Amy brought her family which includes 3 special daughters.

 It was a sunny day and we played in the backyard.

The girls drew while sitting on the concrete b-ball court.   

I remember she asked me for 3 plastic cups for her girls to have water. 

I remember finding that question funny and odd.

Who can remember the last time I had a need for plastic cups on my house? 

My glasses are all one style and color.

Why would I own cheap plastic cups at my stage in life?  

Well, fast forward to 1/11/11, I am tired of washing 3-9 glasses a day

because no one knows which water glass is theirs.   

Thus, a need developed in our home for 3 different colored cups. 

I chose these plastic cups. 

Funny how this subject has come back to me.  

Even funnier is that Alyssa finds this super annoying,

which baffles me as to why she even cares. 

I hope our $9 in plastic saves us water, soap and hassle in the future.  

Sheesh, you'd think a small family of three would have a better system worked out.
