Last week was a little tough. It was my first full week of school, my first week of softball practice AND dad was out of town for work all week. On the plus side of that, my coach from spring ball is also coaching my fall team and I've been playing for her for years. My pitching is looking a little better and I got a new bat so I'm knocking the snot off the ball so that's good.
My teacher this year seems pretty awesome. She has high expectations of us but leaves it up to us to figure out how to meet them so I have lots of freedom to succeed (or fail) in my own way. That's a good thing. Mom met with her during Parent/Teacher conference on Wednesday and really liked her as well. Then, my school had curriculum night on Thursday. Here are all the parents, sitting at attention, because that's what you do when Ms. Hayward talks. Mom is sitting at my desk in the way back on the right.
Friday was National Dog Day so I hope everyone hugged their pooches. Here's our Ginger without her socks. Her feet are almost all better. Mom found some dog booties at REI for her but they were $80.00. Ginger is not getting $80 booties so she can run around the pool, no matter how much we like her.
So, since we're all tired and a little crabby from a long week, here are a few pictures to meditate on. Our mountains are so green lately because of all the rain we've had and they are gorgeous.
This is hole #8, right by our house after another recent rain storm.
And here's a random cowboy riding his horse down our street. You know, just another average day in the hood.
