No Mickey tie John?

Good point Caroline, I really wanted to wear something like that, but DW thinks I look silly when I wear my "novelty" ties. I am usually the only one wearing something like that, and Amy thinks it kind of goes "over the top" and that people will not take me seriously . . .

This was a serious event today so I had to behave.

Have to think about if I will take DDs to see Cheetah Girls. If it were with Hannah I would buy them now. It is OCT 30th, a Sunday, in Philly. Works great, but that may be Trick-or-Treat night here??

Kim . . .

You have ALL the recent photos posted (but they're smilies) on the community photo site!

John1

I thought they were in my gallery. Is this wrong?

 

[tynkerbell]

Got a racingcar wreck Becka?? That is a car, that is racing, that crashed. Sorry, I couldn't resist!

Is this a new game we can play? Try to stump Becka with smilie requests.

 

[becka]

Can anyone convince my DH to

He has a beard right now and has for well over a year and I have never liked it. I wish he would get rid of it. Everyone tell him that he will look better without it. Please!

 

[Jhalkias]

I sure am getting tired but I am afraid if I go to sleep you guys will hit 20,000 and I will miss it!

So I will sacrifice

so I don't have to

tomorrow morning.

I don't think I will make it . . .

Can you believe Sophia will not go to bed if we are still up . . . She is going to be in soooooo much trouble on the first day of school on Tuesday . . .

I feel the same way but I might just have to give up and go to bed. Sophia is still up. We are terrible parents. Tuesday is her first day of school. Oh Boy, that girl will never want to get up!! Tomorrow will have to get her up early so she goes to bed early. (John will have to get her up, because I will be sleeping in, I mean why should we all suffer, right??)

Finally, with the US Secretary of Education, Spellings . . .

John1

She took those silly glasses off for your pic! He He...

 

[Jhalkias]

Yes Kim, they are in your gallery, but when you first go to the DIS photo site, it shows you the most recently uploaded photos.

I started chuckling when I saw that ALL of the most recent photos were smilies posted by Kimerinc!

OK, here are some photos from our new High School dedication today . . .

John giving his 2 minute speech . . .

After the speech with Sophia . . .

With our recently retired Superintendent . . .

Finally, with the US Secretary of Education, Spellings . . .

I'm in the pictures and not Amy because she took the pictures today!

Our new High School is awesome!

We incorporated a branch o the public library into the High School, and it serves as both the public library and school library.

John, the one where you are hugging sophia. Too wonderful! Although it puts a huge dent in the "scary greek look". Not so scary.

 

[waltsgirl]

Aaron AKA Mice Pins, you would look better without the beard. Please shave it and send new photo.

 

[tynkerbell]

Yes, November 8th here. It's a school night, but, oh well!

10/21 in East Rutherford, NJ, I don't know how close you are to there.

10/17 Washington DC

Guess who is touring with them..... Hannah Montana!!

John and I will be rocking!

My kids would love this! Is there a site that lists the tour schedule?

Can anyone convince my DH to

I'd have to see pics first. My dad grows a beard each winter to keep warm, but when he shaves it in the spring he looks 10 years younger! I have always wanted DH to grow one just so I could see what it looks like, but no go.

 

[pyramid2000]

I'm sorry. I probably ruined your cause!

 

[Jhalkias]

John, the one where you are hugging sophia. Too wonderful! Although it puts a huge dent in the "scary greek look". Not so scary.

Yeah, but you should see the other pictures when the other speakers were talking . . .

I am sitting there looking like the scary Greek I am . . .

I just CANNOT force myself to smile all the time when others are speaking!

I am afraid to see the pictures in the paper tomorrow . . . Hopefully they well be close-ups of Spellings, without me sitting there looking like the angry Greek.

BTW - we heard a lot about how wonderful No Child Left Behind is in her speech . . . I think we are probably a pretty representative political cross-section here, and if we are, and I have not heard ONE good word about NCLB from ANY of you, then why does Washington still think it is so great? Not that just we DIS'ers have influence - but that EVERYONE I talk to does not like major parts of it - but Washington acts like they just invented sliced bread.

[becka]

That's OK. I think he is pretty much convinced that he is going to keep it. I have been asking for over a year and no dice. He has such a nice face - I don't know why he keeps it covered up.

[tynkerbell]

No point to this one, it just cracked me up.

John1

Which brings me to my question... Can Becka find a flying pig smilie?

 

[pyramid2000]

I just noticed the picture too. Raven won't be with them??

 

[waltsgirl]

Just google Cheetah girls.
