Sunday, April 11th

Emily played with Grandma Cathy in the morning. Emily was really sad when it was time for Grandma to go and it was a hard goodbye, but it was encouraging to see that she had really bonded with her Grandma :)

Monday, April 12th

It's good to be home. Even with the mess. :)

Today was a LONG day. (I had rehearsal for "Annie Jr." after school.)

I didn't really have to deal with jet lag when we were in London, but now that we're back home I've been EXHAUSTED around 4 or 5 in the afternoon and waking up in the middle of night around 3 am wide awake and ready to start my day! Ugh.

Tuesday, April 13th.

Is it really only Tuesday?

Today right after school I picked up Em from Kathy's and then went to the park to take pictures of this adorable little boy.

Lots of photographers say that 2 year olds are the hardest age to get good pictures of, and I think I have to agree. We had a lot of fun, and I like a few of these pictures, but let's just say he made me work to get the shots I was able to get! :)

Once I got back home Pete left for an orchestra gig so it was a girls' night in for Em and me.

***Do you use Photoshop and Blogger?***

Please help me! :)

I couldn't get any of the photos that I touched up in Photoshop to open.

The pictures here are all .jpg and the photoshop ones are .psd

What do I have to do to upload them with Blogger???

Wednesday, April 14th.

Today was a long day of teaching. On Wednesdays, in addition to teaching three 45 minute classes at the middle school I also teach 15 private string lessons. FIFTEEN!

Anyway, as much as I love my job, I was GLAD to be home!

Friday, April 16th.

TGIF!!!! I lot of my colleagues said this week seemed to fly by. That was NOT true for me! I am SO glad it's Friday!!! AND we're all home tonight! :) Sounds like a good night to just hang out and relax... or... prep for a garage sale in the morning. It was a bit of work, but we had fun.

Saturday, April 17th.

Jenn came over last night and this morning to set up, and we had a pretty successful garage sale if I do say so myself. This photo is what was left afterwards. Still a lot of junk, but a lot less than this morning, and some extra cash, too! :)

NOW it's time to relax with a girls night again since Pete's at another gig. After Daddy left Emily wanted to go to the park, so we went and took the camera along and I love the pictures we captured!

Have a great week!!!
