The forum/website that I help out with, Piece of Scrap, is having a summer vacation crop. We weren’t supposed to “leave” on our vacation until Monday, but the site owner and myself got a little impatient and started the crop off early with a few challenges for the weekend. Come by and say hello and scrap with us this summer. We are a friendly group, welcoming to every scrapbooker, no matter what your level is. Digi, or paper scrapper, this is the place for you!

Tonight was the launch of the “Dream Flight” for the 2011-2012 school year. Dream Flight is a bus decked out like a space shuttle that travels to all the elementary schools in the district with some hands on teaching for the 4th graders in the district. Andrew loves everything about science so he was very excited to go to the launch.
And…there it goes….

I am now a member of the Piece of Scrap design team. I’m going to try to get back to blogging, but be prepared to see a lot of scrapbook pages and challenges. I will still try to post updates on our life in general.
Ronnie had a horrible day today (well, in his mind anyway). He had to go to the groomers and get a bath and haircut. He was starting to look awfully scraggly, so it was time. He spent all afternoon/evening/night like this:
He is completely worn out after his long morning.
because, you know, they can’t call it Christmas vacation anymore.
Anyway, Andrew was so excited for school today…they were going to have their class party! Everyone in the class was supposed to bring a small gift for all the other kids and put the gifts in their stocking. During the party they were going to open their stockings and see all the goodies. Andrew was excited to come home with candy, granola bars, pencils, erasers, and some small containers of play dough. I asked him what else they did in school, and he said they watched movies. Last Friday (the day Andrew was sick) they could chose which movie they wanted to see. All the teachers in 3rd grade were showing a different movie. Since Andrew was gone on “chose” day, he was put in the room to watch “Horton Hears a Who”. He said it was a good movie and a fun day.
This year, Andrew is joining 4H and is excited to be learning new things and participating in a fun group. Tonight was their annual banquet and Christmas party. After eating a pot luck dinner, Andrew made a reindeer mask. Pics are coming (I hope) from a friend.
Back to the start of another week…although it is a short one!! Not much going on today other than our normal…so I will share a picture of our upstairs Christmas tree this year:
