Are you watching this?

...because you should be. Holy cow. The Greatest Generation.

Hey look!

I took a picture. It's blurry, as I'm still a total dork with this camera. That, and the lighting in my dining room stinks. I'm trying to stay separated from my flash, as my class said it was a no-no. Sorry I haven't been around, and I'd like to blame it on the new job. But that's actually going really well. I'm just lazy! But, rest assured, the mac and cheese continues to flow freely in the Rawlings household.

Artists, Like Grammy!

Being that Grammy is a famous watercolorist, the girls get a good dose of art! In Grammy's painting class, pants are optional! They're just in the way, really.


Here we are, fresh from breakfast:

Time to start buying fall clothes!

While it may not feel like time to wear them, the fall clothes are out! We made a bit of a dent at Target today, and I'm sure there are more to come. I also snagged us a couple of cute pairs of sneakers from oldnavy.com!

I'm sorry that my posts haven't been terribly wordy lately--save for the high school questionnaire. The truth of the matter is: I'm tired! My new job as a literacy coach is wonderful, but I'm definitely in new territory. I am worn out by the end of the day. I was worn out as a classroom teacher, but this is a different kind of worn out. I'm at a wonderful site, though. I couldn't ask for better people to work with. I'm sure I'll hit my stride here soon.

From a while back...

Not going anywhere this weekend, you?

It's so flippin' hot out there, so we're staying close to home. We're getting some home projects done, and HOPEFULLY getting out to see The Bourne Ultimatum! Wanna see my cute September desktop?

You can get one of your own here.
