Hello Friday

I had a totally different idea for a post for today (it was going to be a nice mixture of sweet and sentimental and profound...I promise!), but the words just wouldn't come together just right. So, instead, I am holding off on that post until the beginning of next week.

In the meantime, though, how about a quick recap of...

Things (cool, meaningful, non-meaningful, etc.) I've done since I last posted on Monday:

* Spent way too much money on school supplies
* Took Sydney to Kindergarten Camp with Sydney (she's very excited about school starting...me? not so much)
* Received my Alabama football season tickets and have begun the official countdown to kickoff (29 days!)
* Baked cupcakes at 10 pm one night, and had most of them eaten by noon the next day
* Did some scrapbooking for the first time in Forever
* Ordered tickets for all of us to go see an Atlanta Braves game next month
* Listened to Sydney rename most of the Atlanta Braves lineup one night this past week (Brian McCann is now McCandy Corn; Chipper Jones is Chippjon Jones; Jaier Jurgens is Giant Jurgens; Nate McClouth is Clutchy McClutch.) Don't ask me!
* Bought birthday gifts for Mom
* Listened to McKenna happily relate good news about band and color guard camp (she is co-captain of the Guard and they have had 8 a.m.-until 6 p.m. practice everyday). Makes me ready for high school football to start too!
* Slept a little late every day of the week

And things I'm looking forward to...

* Date night with Gary tonight
* Season premieres of "Monk" and "Psych" tonight
* Celebrating Mom's birthday tomorrow
* School starting next week

Have a wonderful weekend, and I will be back much sooner than later!

I bet Sydney is excited about school :] This is gonna be a big year in the Wray household as far as school goes! I myself can't wait to start back on the 21st.

*A side note, I told McKenna last night that I was gonna catch up to her soon on the series! She's read through the 5th one and I'm half way through the fourth one right now :]

Sounds like a fun week and weekend. Have fun at your celebrations, and maybe you can share some of your scrapbook stuff. I've been trying to do some myself.

Marg--I will have to post some scrapbook stuff soon. I'll try and do that!

Adrienne--I gotta find comp notebooks with graphs in them for Delaney. (Did you have to find those?)

Cheryl Wray said...

Laura--LOL Yeah, I know you'd be happy to take any of them off my hands! Seriously...I cannot wait for the season to start!!

Guess I need to watch Psych and Monk on demand. Don't want to miss out on my two soon to be favorite shows (which i've never seen, but I trust you, Girl). :)
