Empty Mondays

I can't believe that I actually have nothing to do today! All year we have had jam-packed schedules of things to do, and now, nothing on Monday's. All we have is Rachels writing class. I used to have basketball on Monday nights, but not since the season ended.... Speaking of which, I went to my basketball banquet two moons ago. It was very nice, they had a slideshow of pictures that all the moms had taken during the year. We also had a lovely catered dinner (I do wonder where it was from....) containing: fried chicken, spaghetti, scalloped potatoes, green beans, and rolls. We also arrived early and watched the game on a huge screen TV. I don't know exactly how big it was, but it was pretty big!! During halftime, the whole Nighthawk clan went to the basketball courts to play knockout. All of the girls whooped the guys. Teehee! Anway, it was fun. We also got a red Nighthawk shirt instead of a trophy. Signing Out - sourpatch

Memphis Tigers VS Texas Longhorns

Memphis Tigers - Texas Longhorns

Score: 85-67 (favoring the Tigers)

Lazy Sunday Afternoon

We went to church this morning. The pastor actually preached today. He's been sick with a pretty serious illness for the past month or so. Afterwards, I played Super Mario 64 on my DS for a little while during the commericals when Memphis creamed Texas. (By the way, Super Mario 64 is the best game ever!) It really was obvious from the very start that Memphis was better. This is a picture of Joey Dorsey of the Memphis Tigers doing what he does best: slam dunk. He was a star this afternoon along with Derrick Rose. I think he rather enjoys all that dunking. Tomorrow I'll have to post an awesome picture of him playing this afternoon. They don't have them on the web yet.... (:

Rachel just finished her LOVELY apron a few hours ago. I'm going to go get her to post about it. It's kind of a vintage pattern with pink heart fabric and white bias tape.

Well, the day slipped away. Before I knew it, it was 4:00. ttyl, sourpatch

Applebee's Pancake Breakfast

This morning we got out and went to an Applebee's pancake breakfast. Their pancakes are horrible, but it was a fundraiser for Rachel's Honor Society group. Rachel drove part of the way back. It wasn't as bad as yesterday, thankfully. By the way, HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESSICA! What is everybody else doing with their Saturday? Has anyone been keeping track of the Tigers' games and stuff? sourpatch

My Crazy Homeschooled Life

• I hope everyone had a great Easter!! For Easter dinner we had shredded BBQ chicken on top of baked potatoes and green beans with that. I really dislike BBQ, so I didn't have any of it, but I'm sure it was good. We ate that while watching the Memphis Tigers beat Mississippi State by like 2 or 3 points. Did anyone except me watch the game?!? Mississippi state could have beat them if they hit that last 3-pointer at the end of the game. They scraped by though... I wonder how UT is doing in the tournament.
• The other day, I forgot to mention that I got my hair cut. It was getting longer, and I really needed a summer cut. Anyway, now it's about shoulder length now. I also got layers. My hair makes a short ponytail also, but I think it's cute.
• Tomorrow night I am going to the 4-H Demonstration Contest. For my age group, I have to explain my board that I am supposed to put together. But, I am using my science fair project board because I'm too lazy. It shouldn't be too hard, but you never know. I kind of got roped into it...unfortunately.
