Oh what a day

the last 2 days have been!! I didn't post yesterday because I'd spent most of the day trying to get school supply shopping finished, because today was Dustin's first day!!
We spent a good hour or so in Walmart walking up and down the aisles looking for things on the list. Managed to find everything but 2 or three items, which I finally tracked down at the Office Depot. Then we had Back to School night at Dustin's school. He has 3 teachers this year, so he changes class rooms a few times a day, but that will help prepare him for middle school next year. His home room teacher seems really nice, and hopefully will be a little better at letting us know when his medicine isn't helping him keep his concentration in class than the one he had last year. He seemed to be in pretty good mood when he got home, so I'm guessing his day went pretty well.

Brianna's turn is next week, although she has entrance exams tomorrow. Why a kindergardener needs an entrance exam is beyond me. I did manage to get most of Bri's school supplies yesterday too, all I need is a box of ziploc sandwhich baggies and a package of safetypins..what the safety pins are for I have no idea.

Spent today doing yard work for my grandma. I did good today, I usually only manage to get the lawn mowed, but today I got both the front and back done, and even got all the weeds pulled out front. So needless to say, right now I pooped, and am ready for bed...lol


My LO for today is the one I made my mom for Mother's Day this year. I went through all the pictures I had and scanned the ones of us together. You can tell how often I'm not the one taking the pictures, the most recent one I have of she and I together was taken on Christmas in 2000....


Credits for this go to: Meryl Bartho at DSP for her Arty QC template; and Marlene at SinDiego's Scraps, the papers and elements are from her Daughter Kit. I unfortuantely cannot give the designer the credit they deserve for the word, it's one that I picked up somewhere and can't remember where, so if it is your's or you know who made it please leave me a comment and let me know, so I can give credit!

Hope everyone has a great evening!

Hugs

Michele
