Maybe I am wrong, but I don't remember life being so complicated when I was in middle school. Everything is so competitive now. Maybe it was back then and I just didn't realize it. Sarah Kate started playing city league softball a couple of weeks ago. We've been encouraged to get her private batting lessons. When I was in third grade I started playing softball and I just did it for fun! No stress at all, as far as I can remember! I just played. I wasn't very good, but I liked it! Ha! Emily started band this year! Before school started, I got a letter from the school district strongly encouraging "your band student to take instrument lessons." WHAT? I bought into it and got Emily private clarinet lessons (which she really enjoys)! But, what happened to learning as you go? I never thought about taking private trumpet lessons when I started band. It seems like most parents are striving for their child to be THE BEST. I guess that's a go

I have been meaning to tell you that I showed my MIL your built-ins that you had repainted in your living room and suggested she do that to her's because they were very similar. She had them painted about 2 weeks ago and LOVES them. They look really good! Her living room color is similar to yours so I knew it would look great! Thanks for sharing the make over!
Lauren and Emily look so cute together!
I know how fun it is when your little to have sleepovers, haha!!
