week three of project 365 and still doing good. anxiously awaiting my kit too … i was told it shipped out on friday, so it should be here next week. it's been hard hearing everyone else say they had gotten theirs already … i'm not a patient person with stuff like this. lol! here are my shots for this past week.

day 11 … january 11th. the girls after their soccer game. this was the first time that they've done the indoor leaque … a new thing we have here. i think they have really enjoyed it … such a different game when played indoors. it's really just for fun and to keep them playing after the regular season. so there aren't any practices … and it's just a short game each sunday. and nice to have them on the same team. the team is actually the team that alyssa played on this past season … but they needed a few more players. so two of the sisters joined in. i love to see them out on the field together!

day 12 … january 12th. my pile of ideas books and magazines that sits on the end table in the family room. i usually keep just the current 1-2 issues of each scrapbook magazine at a time … then i clean out the previous ones and tear out any ideas that i like. and i also keep the newest idea books here. and you might find a random rachael ray magazine or us weekly in there. i can tell when it's time to go through and clean some more issues out … because the pile starts getting super tall like this! and for the record … 4 of those idea books are my copies that i got with my returned layouts and cards just last week.

day 13 … january 13th. i snapped this picture as joe was coming up the walkway from work. he usually gets home around 8:00-8:30am. and even after working all night … he is nice enough to stop on the way home and pick me up a starbucks to start my day. and yes, that IS my breakfast … and lunch combined. lol!

day 14 … january 14th. i thought this was funny. i was looking at the top 25 most played songs on the ipod … and this picture shows the "top 5" from that list. and yes … this is MY ipod. lol! "love song" is one of my favorites … and it shows twice on here because for some reason i have two copies of it on itunes. i guess i must play them in a row for it to show up here. i'm big on playing a favorite song over and over and over and over … i will play it 20 times in a row sometimes. and yes, the remaining 3 "top 5" songs are from "high school musical 3" … i really do love these songs and have them on all the time.

day 15 … january 15th. sarah and one of her homework papers. there is really no significance to this paper … something about america's first people … and all sorts of reading comprehension questions on the back. i'm terrible at this when i have to help her. i have to read it several times and hunt down the answers … which means i probably don't comprehend much. lol! and anytime that homework is finished and completed is a good thing … and calls for a picture, right?

January_16_resize 

day 16 … january 16th. friday night i realized i hadn't taken a photo yet … and the girls were out with my brother and sister-in-law. so i was looking for something to take a photo of. this is their bathroom counter. not the greatest picture. bright bathroom lights … and the walls are a light green … gives photos this strange tint to them. i was standing in the bathtub taking this. the far side of the sink is alyssa's territory … and the right side is sarah's territory. why they feel the need to put this many lotions and potions on the counter, i have no idea. i don't even know how many of these they use. and notice they each have a few toothbrushes and a seperate toothbrush holder? no idea why … no idea how. all i know is that it's a pain to clean that counter when you have to take that much stuff off. lol!

January_17_resize

day 17 … january 17th. alyssa has been asking for a haircut this past week. which is unusual … because usually i have to beg her to get one. lol! i knew her hair was getting long and in need of a trim. so this morning, while joe and sarah were at softball tryouts … i took her over to get a haircut. it's not a huge difference … but she likes it. she got about 2 inches taken off the length … and some longer side bangs cut. and when we went in, the lady asked if she was under 10 years old … and alyssa actually looked at me before answering. she could probably pass for 10 years old …. she's a tiny thing. and it would have saved us $3 if she was … but since she's 12, we had to pay the adult amount. lol!
