Hi! Come on in and look around!

Welcome to my window on the world. A snapshot of my life and experiences. I'm a photography junkie and a scrapbook addict. I capture it all here, and share my journey down this amazing road called LIFE with you!

A Great Day in Our House

Okay, I have another driver in my home. Ds passed his driver's test. He is so excited. And how long do you think it took for the first fight over sharing the car? I'm not even sure they made it out of the school parking lot.

I got a call. It was dd. DS was going to McDonalds. She wanted to go get a book for her class. Intervention! Peace! It all worked out.

Had to explain to dd how excited she was when she got her license. So ds wanted to drive. Ah, the beginning...

And dd made Varsity cheer again this year. She made it last year as a sophomore so it was a pretty good guess she would make it this year, but you never know!

So each kid has something to be happy about, which makes me happy, too!

It took me all night to make that scrapbook page. I just kept working with it and trying to get it how I wanted. Anyway, while I was scrapping, I watched "Hell's Kitchen". That guy is some kind of mean, but I do enjoy the show since he is not yelling at me!

David Cook rocked AI, imo! He's my fav for this year. I know David Archileto (sp) is cute, but I'm a rocker, and I'd buy David Cook's stuff before the cute lil guy!

I love how teachers assign books to be read when (1) there aren't enough copies at the school for all the students in the class (2) there aren't enough books in the library for all the students in the class (3) there aren't enough books in the public library for all the students in the classes (4) the teacher never coordinated with the local bookstore so one doesn't have their books in on time and the other, well, we got the last copy. I might suggest to the teacher that she make sure that the bookstore and her reading are timed appropriately. Otherwise, how do all the students get the material in a timely manner to complete the assignments?

And I leave you with a chilling thought from my world...

Now, who will be driving to school tomorrow?

Awesome layout!!!!!
Glad to hear that Dd made the team. And wow, 2 drivers at the same time? Don't envy you on that one. Agree with you on David Cook. Love him. Didn't really like the song he had to sing last night, but loved how he did it. I really thought Michael Johns did the best, but not as big a fan of him as David C.
Have a great day!

I love David Cook and Chef Ramsey! Congrats to your teens and their accomplishments. I was a cheerleader from 7th through my junior year but was cut as a senior because I refused to give up varsity tennis to cheer (I was a state champion). Don't get me started on butthead cheerleader advisors!

Congrats to him on his license! Woohoo! And yay on making varsity cheer! I loved cheerleading. It's such a huge memory of mine from high school.

And I have to agree with you on the teacher and her reading schedule. She should have planned that one a tad bit better. Glad she got a copy though!

Gorgeous layout!
