OK, time for a Timmies!
The end of another week. Semester two is off to a good start. Yay! Everyone loves their teachers and their classes. Yay.
Spencer has a three-hour DYB practise tonight which means one of us will need to try and kill time in North York for three hours. I think I will see if John wants to go see a movie after we drop Spencer off. What else can one do for three hours on a Sunday evening in Toronto?
I know, I know. Pretty boring week around here. ...but trust me ... boring equals good in my house. Boring means things are going well for everyone.
Here's my layouts from this week.
Wow, THREE hour practise, our boys have a TWO hour and they think that it is long. Yeah a movie sounds like a good idea.

I'm glad I don't drink coffee. Please don't tell me that tea is even worse!
ReplyDeleteI love the smell of coffee but I do not like to drink it. Thanks for the education. To keep you going during DYB's three hours, did you get two or three cups of coffee?
ReplyDeleteThe coffee facts are interesting, but I choose to ignore the scary ones. I love my coffee and wouldn't be able to function without it. *sigh*
ReplyDeleteGreat LOs, as usual. Your pages are always so classic and timeless. I love that you journal on every page. Sometimes I look and wonder what the REAL story behind the page is... you've always got a good story to tell on yours!
OH what a cute layout!
