Summertime adventures

Man, I suck at blogging lately! And here's my lame excuse. I use AOL for email but switched over to gmail as my email reader. And since for my blogger account, I need to be logged in with my AOL account, not my gmail.

So things are kind of crazy at work. Gannett is announcing more layoffs soon. My paper is not going to have any until August, when they plan to announce some new restructuring. It's just a never-ending feeling of dread. I'm glad I have a job.

So let's see, what have I been up too. I'll try to add some photos later.

June 24: Taylor graduated from kindergarten. Sniff, sniff. Very cute and quick ceremony.
(Don't I look like my Dad? Scary! LOL!)

June 27: We had a nice birthday dinner for Grandma. Party of 16 of us at Outback! Kylie was singing for the whole place, and she's usually pretty shy. What a nut.
Grandma's 78 year's young!
Me and my cousin Melissa.

June 28: Got to hang out with my friend LeAnne who I miss so much at open mic night. My friend Dean jumped up to sing with the players a few time. So much fun!
(I wear this shirt too much!)

June 30: I got my new iPhone!!!! I absolutely love it. I have so much fun playing with apps and I love being able to Facebook or Twitter from anywhere. (Another reason I don't blog so much!)
We also took Taylor shopping for a graduation present at Target. She picked out a stuffed doggie that came in a little bag and had an outfit. And we took her to the new Sonic on Rt. 17. We've never been to one so it was kinda fun. Taylor got a big kick out of eating in the car and the servers on rollerskates.
July 3: I went to NYC with Randi so she could get her hair chopped off! It looks really cool. I also picked up a great anti-friz product at the salon and my hair has been looking fantastic! Also had my first bad experience with the phone when we put in the wrong address for Magnolia and ended up in Chinatown!
Doesn't she look good!

July 4: Had an awesome time - barbecues at my friend Lisa's and at Randi's friend Ralph's, where I also got to see one of my favorite teachers from high school. Then we watched the fireworks over the Hudson for the first time in years. Then more celebrating with the gang at the bar.
Nory's cute pups at Lisa's bbq...
Some fireworks...

July 5: Another bbq for my cousin Corinne's 15th birthday. Betty, Fernando and Lucia came along, too, and the girls had Betty running all over and playing with them. Later, Randi and I went to see Whatever Works.

And here's some scrapping I've done lately...
I love Jessica Bolton's new PooChi kit! Seems like it was made for Penny! Credits

This wasn't as hard to do as it may look, even though there are 73 photos on here! I used a great Heart Action from Studio Arisu. Credits

And here's one celebrating the Fourth for a Red, White and Blue play day at SBG. Credits

Robin, it sounds like you need to switch to WordPress! Then you won't have to worry about which e-mail account you're logged into. I made the switch at the beginning of the year and I haven't regretted it for one second.
