Quiet (ha!) for two more days...

School is out in two days. Finally the "countdown" has gotten so close that I'm paying attention to it. TWO days, Mom! Today is the LAST day of GYM, Mom! ONE more sleep then the LAST day of school, Mom!

I think I must hate change. Because I sit here, wondering what in the world we are going to do all summer! But I know equally as certainly that come August, I'll be wondering where the summer went and be sad that everyone has to go back to school! So, either I hate change, or nothing can make me happy. Pick one, I guess.

Yesterday, I was "Salon Mom". I gave haircuts to Skylar, Kaia and Jeff. I wish I had a picture of the back of Jeff's head because everyone would feel sorry for him and encourage him to get his haircut by someone who actually knows what they are doing... and even when to school to learn those skills. See, I forgot that I didn't have the clipper guard on. And I wanted to even out the back of his hair before I got out the scissors. Can you guess the rest? Maybe I'll get him to pose for a picture. But maybe not... I'm trying to downplay the damage.

Kaia's hair, however, is adorable. We did a short little sassy cut for the summer and she's working it well. Skylar just wanted a trim, so that's what she got.

In other, completely unrelated news, my blender broke yesterday. I must replace it, and soon!! Tis the season of green smoothies (so delicious, and healthy!) and... ok, Margaritas. So, the girls and I are going to go on a search. You'd think finding a blender would be easy, but I have standards, people!

I'm almost embarassed...


The kid in the picture above might learn that emotion sometime during his life. Maybe. But so far: not so much. But back to me...

I haven't updated in a long time. So, embarassed? Nah... that's a huge waste of time, I think I'll settle for something else. Like: Busy. Forgetful. Uninterested. Something along those lines. I just couldn't find my blogging mojo. But I'll try again. It's really been a quiet sort of time, although there were certainly things I *could* have written about..
Like:

My exciting and pain-relieving gall bladder removal... (Wait, should one write about such things?) (Not in great detail, I think...) (And certainly without pictures.) (Enough about my gall bladder.)

Colton's 12th Birthday...

Colton's Lenten Monologue at Church (he was fantastic!)...

Avery having 2 additional laser treatments on her PWS...

Baseball season starting...

My Mom's 60th Birthday Party...

Laura (Aunt Wo) having her first baby...

Me getting a part-time job starting in the September...

So that's about it. And I haven't loaded pictures onto this darn computer for a long time (Like two months!) So, the pictures you've been subjected to are not recent, but still...

Isn't this one worth seeing? Yeah, I thought so.
