I can't keep up with everything. Any 'extra' type activities in the week always throw me off.
The 2nd grade play was this week at Harelson. It was '3 of a Kind', the kids worked so hard on it and they did a fabulous job. When they are on stage, I picture that same group of kids just 2 short years ago on stage together as kindergartners. I know it will be just a blink of an eye and they will all be up there for 6th grade graduation, yikes!
The very next day, was dress up as your favorite book character. So we were out late right after the play trying to find stuff to put together costumes. Zachary waned to wear a Star Wars costume, he could not understand that it was a book character and not a Halloween costume. We held our ground, trying to offer ideas to him for costumes of book characters, not movie characters. After about an hour in the store, we settled on Harry Potter. He looked the part, but refused to wear it when morning time came. Can you guess what Grace choose to be? This was after school so the costume is disheveled, but try to picture glasses on her as well (they broke at school), and the socks all the way pulled up, and a headband with a big bow.
When Zachary got him from school the first thing he told me was which kids had star wars costumes on and Why Oh Why did I not let him wear his star wars costume. I guess I should not have followed directions so well and been like the other lazy parents and just let him wear the dang star wars costume.
Phew, finally the weekend is here!
Jason got me a new lens for my camera, we tested it out today at Josh's football game. We got some great pictures of him. He is becoming quite the football player! He is spending the night tonight so everyone is happy.
I have been wanting red skinny jeans. What do you think? I am wondering if I am too old to wear colored jeans. But they are so cute in all the magazines. I have not had a chance to try them on yet, I may be too old to pull them off successfully, we will see.
I am looking for a nice handheld clothes steamer. I hate ironing and avoid doing it. When Zachary was about 3 we were in a hotel room and he got very excited because he thought the ironing board was a surf board. So you see, I really hate to iron. This Roweta Ultra Steamer got some mixed reviews, if you have any recommendations let me know.
I was reading about Beauty Balms. The concept was developed in Asia and it is supposed to even skin tone and improve texture. I see that Too Faced has come out with one. I want to get this, I love their Primer and this looks even better:
