busy or lazy????

I have been busy.. I will be VERY busy soon which has made me a bit lazy..trying to relax before the busy season starts. In about another week things will be crazy. Not looking forward to it.

So here are a few photos from September so far..


I don't know what it is about holidays that make me wasnt to cut my daughter's hair. I got the urge to cut Anna's during Labor day weekend. I forgot to take a before photo
so here is a half way done photo.



all the hair..about 4 or 5 inches


It looks so much better. Marc is so happy she no longer looks like a kid that belongs at the NASCAR racetrack.


The next day.. it flows.. so healthy.



Front view.. my darling daughter and her hair after about an hour in the heat.. it gets all stuck together. Her expression..... don't think it is from the heat that is just her.

out of the mouth.....


I have been trying to teach Anna not to walk in on people when they are in their rooms getting dressed...in the bathroom etc. This morning she followed the dog into our room while I was getting dressed. Our door can close but it does not stay closed or locked. The dog barges in all the time since he is pretty much a growth on my side 99% of the time...he can not be away from me for longer than 2 minutes. Anyway, she walks on in after he does. I say, "Anna, I really do not want you in here while I am getting dressed." She says, "Oh... its OK Mom, I won't laugh."

More old photos.

First day of first grade. The skirt was safety pinned to the shirt.

Class Photo First Grade

I am in the back row middle in the white.

Mrs. Walker was mean. She was lining us up one day, asked each child to line up at the door after inspecting their desk to make sure it was clean. I was the last one to have her desk inspected. Everyone was all lined up at the door waiting... watching. Well, my desk was not clean.. I had the habit of not completing things and cramming the papers into my desk. Mrs. Walker did not like what she saw I guess. She stood on the other side of the desk and dumped the contents of my desk into my lap.

Nice, huh?? I wish I could show her my car.

preschool days

I though it would be cool to put some old class photos on facebook.
Here is my pre-k and K years.

I'm the giant in the back row.

Front row middle. I think those shoes were Sass brand shoes, all the rage then.

From the recital back in June

I just got a chance to view the pictures from the recital. Marc took them they have been on his computer - I have not had a chance to see them. I thought I'd share...

Anna after the show... pretty girl in front of our neighbor's pretty hydrangea.




on the stage, I think this is from the rehearsal




The class.

I still can't believe I got all of them in one photo.
