TG Bristol Palin LOST to Jennifer Grey!
Bristol was the worst thing I have ever seen cross a dance floor. Yep, she reminded me of a Clysdale. Beauiful, yet solid and sturdy. Graceful and eloquent? NOT!

St Peter Claver Craft Sale - RanHam
We painted beautiful gourds for the craft boutique this year and it was fun to be included again.
the kids loved painting them and finding the hidden gem in each one. They were selling well when I had stopped in. The SPC Quilters are a great bunch of caring, generous ladies.
I spy a flamingo, snake and a lizard.
A giraffe peeks out.
Tony's beautiful lizard.
Kalyans' swan, Blessing's swan, Hnrianna's flamingo.
Maia's graphic art, Cruz's penguin and Luther's apple.
Octavia's beautiful blue art.
Junie loving her boutique gift from Joe. She LOVES her Java cat mat!
RANHAM BOWLING!
Old style lanes
Old fashion scoring
Bowling fun with the family. RanHam needs to tweak the equipment, but they have customer service down!
Lots of fun to be back in the basement.
Not very focused, but still cutie!

Reading, "Push"
So hard to read the brutal words that shape her life. The most brilliant line that brought me to my knees is about coloring. Why care anymore about coloring in the second grade when in the scheme of her life and being abused everynight by her father, does it really matter? WHen her teacher tells her to care, one is not surprised when she says, "really?"
