Okay, let’s start with the ‘happy’ first! Check out what Nich0l-dear did with the Autumn kit! Yowza!!!

love.

[Shapes | This & That: Autumn / This & That: Freedom (rooster) / Escape (‘good eats’) / Storyboard 2]

I think one of my favorite parts of this page (there are many) is how she used the ‘good eats’ from the Escape kit with the ‘grown here’ . . . and then wrapped the ‘d’ around the corn cob. It’s all in the details ba-by! And speaking of, don’t even get me started on the stamping of the diecuts. Maaahhhvelous!

Like I said the other day with Shari’s card, seeing the This & That kits used outside of that series?

It tickles me pink.

Now for the ‘unhappy’.

Yesterday was the season premier of Survivor.

I’ve been counting down the time.

I’ve been so excited.

I couldn’t wait.

I had a meeting.

AAAAAACCCCKKK!!!!!

Guess I’ll have to watch it on my computer today (I don’t have DVR anymore).

Don’t anyone tell me what happened or you will be banned from my blog for.e.ver. :)

On the upside, the meeting was a parent meeting for the play Jordan is in this year. Yup. She made the high school play. They are doing Children of Eden and she is in the main cast–she’s a story teller and pretty much on stage the whole time and singing. She was excited to have made it into the finals with only one other junior. The other six are seniors. On top of that, they got an adult (he’s a friend with the director and the music coordinator) to play ‘Father’ (God). He’s from the area and has been in a few Broadway plays, so we’re very excited about that! He sang us ‘Bring Him Home’ from Les Miserables and did a fantastic job!

Sounds like this is going to be a very huge production this year!

Oh, and did I ever mention that Jordan finally took driver’s ed this summer–getting her permit–and is now in the mode of “can we go driving”? She had range last night (she couldn’t do it this summer during play practice) and asked if she could drive home. Uhhhh….okaaay…. It was fine until we hit construction on the main road by our house. Thank heavens for a red light and no one behind us so we could do our own Chinese Fire Drill and change places.

Night time + construction cones + new driver [could] = disaster. ;)
