Day 84 - Alice... Tim Burton style

Went to see Alice in Wonderland 3D today.  Thought it was awesome!  I didn't have a picture of the real thing... so the next best thing is the Disney book of Haley's with a twist in Photoshop! :)

Day 82 - My New Gig!

OK... time to embarrass myself for a moment here.

One of the girls at work had to do a readers theatre on a story she had read in the "and then it Happened" series (for more info... http://laura-take2.blogspot.com/2010/03/day-71-and-then-it-happened.html ).  I somehow got suckered into being the "old lady". 

Just to clarify... I think it was because I was a "lady" not necessarily "old".

So... thought I would have some fun with it and went ALL OUT!  I had many people in the building fooled as to who I was I think and we laughed about it all day long!!

Oh... and if anyone is interested in reading this hilarious story, "Another Good Deed" from book Seven, feel free to read away here http://www.boysbookshelf.com/another_good_deed.html

Day 71 - and then it Happened...

I discovered these books through one of the girls I work with.  What fun they are!  They are actually "books for boys" but who is really keeping track. ;) 

So today I got to meet the author (Mike Wade) and get a full set of signed books.  He is from just down the road in Strathroy and him and his wife (Laura Wade... yes it is Mike and Laura!  LOL) write the books together.  He is definately not your average author-type as he is a prison guard by day and is very large and bald!  LOL  He is a great speaker if you ever get a chance to see him!

Anyways, now to get reading!!!

Day 33 - New Books!

Haley came home with new books from her Scholastic order today.  She LOVES books and is really starting to enjoy reading more and more everyday!  I came home from work to this picture and after questioning Mike about it, he said it was a page out of her Chester's Back book.  I couldn't believe the resemblance!!!  So... here we have today's picture(s).

Day 15 - Twilight Fun

A couple of the girls at work and I were having fun taking pictures of a shiney red apple that was sitting there.  I just couldn't resist this picture! ;)
