Proud Mama
Rose was all happy on Sunday after her costume fitting. They had taken her picture and asked her name and age. It was in today's paper. This surprises me since they typically show the party girls instead of the soldiers.

John had me order an 8X10 from the reprint people. He is such a photo snob- when he was scanning in ( Read more... ) -
Birthday Evening
Sarah had a good birthday- understated just like she wanted. I had Rose Get her homework done as fast ( but neat) as possible. Sarah only had to practice her clarinet and when that was done she opened her gifts. The Wii was the last one opened, she started to open it, saw what it was and then hugged the box. She who is stoic and rarely smiles ( Read more... ) -

Nutcracker Auditions For Rose
Of the 6 girls I know that went to the audition today. Three did not get parts. They have had parts in the past but have "outgrown" the parts available. Being "too tall" at 10 sucks. To tall for the kid roles and not big enough to dance the the older "Pointe shoes roles ( Read more... ) -
Sewing
It tells you something when asked about my sewing skills I totally skip ( space out forget...) over the other sort of sewing that I do. Quilting is sewing sort of right? In which case quilting is my favorite thing to do and it requires thread needle and fabric too ( Read more... ) -

I knew that this summer was cool.
Now I get to listen to John predicting either a lot of snow the winter, after all we had a wet summer,

A cold winter after all we had a cool summer
A warm winter after all we had a cool summer.
