School starts tomorrow...

So it's that time of year again! It's back to waking up at 6:30 making breakfast, making lunch, reminding the kiddos to grab their books, homework, signed notices etc. I think I'm ready for them to start up again. Lauren is going into 7th grade and Christina is heading to college...wow how time flies!

Now that they are back in school I really need to focus on organizing the house, filing some paperwork, transferring our home movies on to Cd's and just weeding out the stuff we no longer need.

On another note Lauren had a Bat Mitzvah and a 60's/70's birthday party yesterday and another beach birthday party today. Here's a picture of her in her 60's costume. The great thing is we now know what her Halloween costume will be, that is if auntie Yvonne let's her use the wig again. I added some patches to her pants and we made the tye-dyed shirt. I think she looks groovy!

Yummy....


My husband had his wisdom tooth pulled yesterday and I decided to make some chicken soup for us. This is so easy to make because I use one of those ready baked chickens and just add fresh veggies and some chicken stock.

Wow...it's been awhile

I have missed updating my blog because I love to keep life in writing as it makes it easier when I scrapbook. If I forget a date or if I need help with my journaling for a particular event most likely it will be on my blog. Plus I think Dina misses the music...yes, I did update the music just for you Dina.

I have been busy with life...some things that have been keeping me busy are but not limited to: Soccer, purchased another home (rental property), Hawaii trip to update our condo, soccer, soccer, and more soccer. My oldest is also getting ready to attend college in the fall so we have been to orientation and also have been keeping our fingers crossed that our daughter gets into housing there. I was planning on turning her room into a scrapbook room....ha,ha! We have celebrated birthdays, new babies, graduations, and so much more. I will post pictures later and will also post some layouts I have been working on.

I always like to include a picture so here is a picture of the new house we purchased after we did some improvements on it. We did alot of work on the inside and I will post beore and after pics later. The new renters move in today!
