Well, well, well...it is the time again folks. The days are already getting shorter, the back to school ads are flooding the papers and school orientations are in full swing. I must tell you now that I have a VERY 13 year old, the school shopping experience is what you would call....extremely stressful. I look back on when I went school shopping with my mom and I cant remember whining about not getting a certain brand or not getting enough....I was just thankful and excited to get 3 outfits!! Seriously. I took Shelbey school shopping and I didn't know who was going to lose their hair first, by either me pulling my own out or intentionally pulling her's out!! Ha ha! I am here to tell you that shopping with a teenage girl is NO FUN AT ALL!!! But we made it through (alive thankfully) and she starts her first day of highschool on Sept. 2nd. Ooooo yes, and the fun begins.
On a different note, I am all moved in to my new home and the decorating and re-adjusting is consuming my free time. Ian is down and will be here for almost 3 weeks!!! I am very excited about this because he is very good company. And as we all know it is nice to be "in good company"!! He has been working endlessly night and day to get things fixed, painted and just comfortable for me. Bless his heart...I really dont know what I would do without him.
Another thing I wanted to touch on is that I just found out that my dad has had surgery because his doctors found a cancerous lesion on his lung. He is in full recovery as we speak but a few prayers for him wouldn't hurt....so please say one for him today.
I have attached a few pics of some random shots throughout the last few weeks....so enjoy and I wish all you parents good luck on the first day of school (especially my sister Jennifer...as I hope she does not have too bad of a separation anxiety attack!!) as I know I will be nervous for my "little mammas" to step her first foot in the world of highschool. Take care everyone!!!!!
