My Layouts

Happy Monday!

It's the start of another week. We had quite a busy weekend so I'm more tired now than when the weekend started. The weekend never seems to be long enough. On Saturday, my son Jerman's basketball teammate had his 13th birthday party at the park. It was a nice day... not too hot and there was a slight breeze. GJ played basketball and Halley played tennis. Jerman brought a couple of his Airsoft guns so he and his friends were running around the entire park trying to shoot each other.

Later that night, my friends came over to the house to watch the Sex and the City DVD that just came out to DVD on Tuesday. We had El Pollo Loco and fondue, what a combination, huh? LOL! But to be honest, it really wasn't too bad. Just don't eat them together and make sure to eat on separate plates. And the movie was actually pretty good. I cried a couple of times. Now I'm not a big Sex and the City follower. I don't even think I've watched an entire episode. I'm just not into shows like that. I'm more into shows like Cold Case, Without A Trace and Law & Order - TNT reruns, hehe!

Then on Sunday, Jerman had 2 basketball games. They lost both games. :( Pretty disappointing. Michael and I actually got into it after the game because I got on him for making Jerman cry on the court. Michael is the team's assistant coach. The discussion got really heated to the point that we almost made a scene in front of the other parents so we had to stop before it got out of hand. Believe me, we took it up again when we got home. I had to apologize and admit that I overreacted, which I have the tendency to do a lot. But I can't help it, I had to stand up for my son.

Anyways, enough about my ranting. What I really wanted to share with you was another layout I made for a Digital Freebies Challenge. It was actually for 2 challenges but I incorporated the challenges into one layout. The layout is called "Grandparents are a Gift from God".

I dedicate this layout to my parents. They are such wonderful grandparents to my kids. My kids just absolutely adore Papa and Mama. They were always there and still are here to help me raise my kids. They truly are a gift from God.
