Another Year, Another Picture [School]
I have forsaken my blogging duties for most of the summer–everyone needs a break, right? But today marks the start of the school in HP, so Speed, Layla, and Emma are transitioning back into their school routines. Predictably, Speed is … Continue reading
New School Year Mean New Header [Administration]
I used to make headers out of random pictures that I just found interesting–and that amazingly enough fit the extreme width/height requirements. But for the last couple of years, I’ve settled on using the first day of school photos taken … Continue reading

The Official Big Graduation Remembrance [School]
Whatever my duties around here, I’ve been quite remiss in fulfilling them at least since Holly ran her Alaskan marathon. And while I’d love to say that it’s because nothing much has been happening around here, I cannot tell that lie. … Continue reading

And Then The Big Graduation [School]
I’ve delayed this for too long. I have to face it. Covering Baccalaureate was not sufficient. A week ago Friday night (on the heels of Emma’s elementary school graduation), Madysen officially graduated from high school. *breathes into paper bag* But … Continue reading

So Close I’m Physically Ill [School]
Today marks the final real day of high school for Madysen as she took her last AP exam. I’m not ready for this.

I’ve been told that Speed’s elective choice for this school year was either Art or Dance. Surprising, at least to me, is that he chose Dance. Throughout the year, he has refused pleas to show us his dance moves (other … Continue reading
Education Cutbacks Lead To Roadkill Projects? [School]

Mardi Gras And Cinco De Mayo Have Something In Common [Dance]
A couple Saturday’s ago, Madysen and Speed went–separately–to the Hi-Lites dance. The theme was something to do with holidays, so Madysen went as, gulp, Mardi Gras, Speed as Cinco de Mayo. Unfortunately, I’ve been unable to locate any pictures on … Continue reading
