Weekend Events

I use to think that when my kids were teenagers I won't be as busy with them. WRONG! but it's good :) Lucy had an all day volleyball tournament on Saturday. At least this time it was here in CG at her high school. She had to be there at 8am and didn't get done until 6pm! I was back and forth between the house and school. I'd go watch her play, then back to the house to play with them dogs and make sure they weren't destroying the house! The Lady Lions did good in the their tournament. Lucy's had a cold and lost her voice. Poor thing was sound asleep on the sofa before 9! Not how she would have said she wanted to spend her Saturday night, but with 2 games a week, tournaments almost every Saturday, school work and of course Friday night football games, I was surprised she made it past 8:30 at all. This coming week is Homecoming, that means lot's of school events, parades, football and of course the DANCE! Hopefully I'll get lot's of pictures.
Today I spent the day canning pears and picking tomatoes. I'm thinking of trying to can them myself tomorrow since I have to have my car at the dealer after I drop Lucy off and they'll have it most the day. Sounds like a good day for touching up my roots :), canning and cleaning. Look, I got her to smile for this picture!

She played in every game, only sat out 1 play of one game and slide for several plays. Thank goodness for knee pads.

Lucy has lot's of school spirit and painted her face with school colors for last Fridays game. All the animals had to check her out when she got home.

I did manage to scrap a bit. This is my grandfather, grandmother(that I saw in Seattle in Aug), my dad and aunts and uncles as kids. I wanted to scrap this picture in a vintage, fall theme. I like the way it turned out. I used parts of my Oregon Fall kit and made a few new things using Kim B's CU grab bag. It's a great grab bag and so full of stuff I will be playing with it all for months to come. You can find it on her page here. I made a quick page out of this page. You can download it here.


I also uploaded the 2nd QP I made with Jenni's End of Summer kit. You can download the page here. You can also find the whole kit at Digital Candy.
