Chapter Sixteen

"Hey honey. Supper will be ready soon. I invited Diana and Walker, and the Hanson clan over for fahita's." Cheryl greeted Megan and Emily as they walked in. "So go clean up. I have something to show you when your done."

Megan and Emily raced up stairs, and got quike showers and changed into jean shorts and shirts. Megan wore a light blue ling tee shirt (Click here to see) , and Emily with a black derby tee (Click here to see) . They both pulled their hair back and went down stairs to help dinner.

"So what did you want to show me mom?" Megan asked, as she helped her mom chop some veggies.

"Oh....you got something in the mail. Emily's mom called and she got one too. Open it up."

"Ooh my god! Emily, we got a scollarship to space camp this summer. They pay for everything!"

Emily and Megan squeled for about forever and a day. They totally dug space and they couldn't wait till they got to go.

"I can't believe it!!!!!" Emily hollered. Both girls forgot about the cooking, and ran to call everyone in Tennessee.

**An hour later**

Ding Dong! The door bell rang.

"I got it." Jim said, going to answer the door, because the girls were on the phone, and Cheryl was too busy finishing setting up.

"Hi Diana, Walker. Nice to see you again." Cheryl said smiling as they walked into the kitchen. "Dinner is almost ready, make youtselves at home."

"Hey babe." Zac said, as me and emily walked into the living room, with portable phones in hand. They were hyped up.

"Hey, guess what! Me and Emily get to go to Space Camp, or Space Academy."

"Wow, thats pretty cool. We were concidering going to Aviaion Challenge®! or Space Camp® this summer. Except we would have to pay for it." Ike said with a laugh.

"Wouldn't that be kewl if we all went together?" Tay said, not really aware of what he was bringing up.

"Hey, thats not a bad idea!" Zac said with a grin on his face.

"Oh no....now he's got an idea in his head!" Jessica said, walking in the room, hearing the last part.

"Yup. It's dangerous." Emily said, getting up to go to the kitchen.

"Foods ready. Come and get it." Walker called into the living room to get all of his and the other kids.

"Thanks Walker" Cheryl said when he walked back in. Everyone dug in, and enjoyed the meal.

After dinner, the adults played some card games, and the kids talked, and invited Jenny over too. Everyone left by about 10:30, and Jenny spent the night. They revealed their secrets, including the one where Jenny admits she likes Ike.
