It’s the last official day of school this year. It’s a half day, and Jalen said they’re having a disco party. Isn’t that funny? I made some candy bar covers for Jalen’s teachers along with my favorite MK eye products… :) I’ll be posting pictures of that along with directions in a bit… :) My [...]

I can’t believe it’s Wednesday Morning. only three more days of school this year. I feel an urgency to plan our entire summer’s worth of activities. why is it that I am such a control freak that needs a list, itinerary or something before I can do it? I don’t know. Jeanne asked why Jalen [...]

May 21st, 2008 · 19 Comments · sewing
