Project 365 Week 19

Week 19
And what a full week it was.
Toward the end of the week, I couldn't pick just one photo.
Sunday...(today), I didn't even take one!
Here is how the week shaped up.

Monday, September 21
The first day of Homecoming week for Rebecca - her sophomore year!
Homecoming week in Texas is a great big deal! (as you will see)
This is how Rebecca started her week...
calling in sick.
Luckily, it was just a little cold, but this is a photo of how I left her on Monday a.m.

Tuesday, September 22
Here are a couple of my very best friends!
We get together once a month or so to catch up.
Tuesday night was the night. We talked for over 3 hours!

Wednesday, September 22
The sky looked really cool when I was driving to work.

Thursday, September 23
Homecoming parade
Picture above is part of the football team.
Below, Rebecca and Akeitha, marching.
They have been friends since 6th grade!


Friday, September 25
Rebecca wears her homecoming mum to school today.
These are the big Texas tradition!
Her boyfriend gave her this, and she gave him a garter (see below)

Here is a photo of my hubby and myself at the Homecoming football game.

And a photo of our best friend's son carrying his tuba up the stands.


Saturday, September 26
It was Homecoming Dance night.
This is a photo of Rebecca and her boyfriend all dressed up for the dance!
It was also University of North Texas Parent weekend.
So, after seeing Rebecca off for her dance, we headed up to Denton to watch the UNT football game. This is a photo of myself, my hubby, and my son, as we walked to the stadium from his apartment.


The sun setting on the UNT campus.
and the closest I got to taking a picture on Sunday!
I spent all day uploading, downloading, importing, and looking at Homecoming photos!

Have a fantastic week!
Love,

I Close My Eyes

Well, I did it. I took the writer's challenge at a blog that I have been lurking around for some time. I found this blog through Laura at Wellblog 's place and have been enthralled ever since. I have dabbled in poetry on and off. Written some invitations, cards, and even a few song lyrics (for fun) but have been hesitant to post any. (roaring lion? see below post ) With the encouragement of a friend, I decided to take the challenge on L.L.Barkat's blog, in a lesson on seeing. I chose a subject that is cherished, a memory that was real and something close to my heart. The beach. Many, many days were spent at the beach in the 12 years I lived on the Southern Virginia coast. The memories are real, and when.......... I close my eyes and I can still see the beach. The endless spans of water Sometimes blue, green, or gray. It moves Gently and Violently Bubbles rise and falling forward. On and on. I close my eyes and I can still hear the crash Of tidal movement As earth slowly spi...

Friday Fill Ins

A Promise is a Promise (Grand Canyon)

Many years ago, I am guessing about 19 of them, our family visited the Grand Canyon for one day, on the way home from a trip to California to visit family.  Our eldest son was around 11, our middle one around 9, and our baby was a little over a year old.  Our boys wanted desperately to hike into the canyon, but our oldest one especially so.  He pleaded and my husband and I held firm our "No" as our youngest was too young and we were not outfitted for such an adventure.  I promised that we would return one day. A few months later we moved to the East Coast of Virginia.  Not planned when we stood at the edge of the canyon and that promise was made. And the many times we planned vacation time to the beach, our son reminded me of that promise to go the the Grand Canyon. Time flew quickly and years later we had not returned to the Grand Canyon.  But, we did move to Texas and as we looked at spending time as a family, our oldest son brought this promise bac...
