Ripping Into Projects

Well, it's official.  I am NOT making the Belle ball gown.  And that's ok.  

I just don't know how to tell Meri, that the blue dress that I'm making for her to wear in the play will also double as her prom dress...

It's been a hairy morning already.  2 hour delay and no one handy to help pick people up, get Leon ready and fed.  He requested the awesome breakfast for the road this morning when we went to pick up his dad.

Awesome breakfast menu

peanut butter and jelly sandwich made with toast

a baggie of fruit loop cereal

apple juice

In case you were wondering...  

We had a discussion of what college he needs to be an archaeologist or paleontologist this morning on our drive.  It's adorable hearing him garble up those words.

And discussed Meri's love of the Pirates of the Caribbean movie when she was about his age.  I just finished the last one on Netflix and am amazed that we let her watch the first one at such a young age.    She has a thick pirate book somewhere that has all pirate-y things in it with little hidden pouches here and there and treasure maps.  He's not interested in pirates apparently.  

He wants to go to college so he can be rich.  I don't think he understands how that works...

Anyway, the day awaits.  Let er rip!
