A Week in the Life 2011: Day 7 (Saturday) in Photos

A few of my favorite photos from Day 7 (Saturday) out of 254 (YIKES!):

Early morning drive to Dragon Boat Race festival.

Go Pirates!

Go Team Pirate!!

Opening ceremonies complete with drumming and Dragon dances.

Playing games while waiting for the race to start.

Team Pirate's turn.

Hanging out in the team tent between races.

Played in the sea (right in front of the team tent) between races.

Our team is boat #6 -2nd place!! Even though it looks like we are in 3rd or 4th place, we are actually in 2nd place. The first two boats are adult women racing against each other at the same time as the elementary teams race.

Celebrating their second 2nd place win of the day. Go Pirates!

Heading home.

Art work brought home yesterday from the last day of Summer School. This is the Hungry Caterpillar.

I am now officially done with the photo portion of documenting my week. Next week, I will do my best to get my album done. I hope to post my plan tomorrow.

Playing back silly videos made the day before. Let's go shopping! Released today. Kids want to go see it. Listening to movie reviews on the radio. They pan The Smurfs saying it is insulting to children and lots of product placements. We will skip it. Lunch before shopping. Trying on a bunch of stuff at Nordstrom Rack. Time to check out. Another store looking for shirts and more pants. Waiting...

August OLW Blog Hop OLW BLOG HOP I love our monthly OLW Blog Hop! For those of you that are new to my blog, every month on the 1st of the month, a group of students from Ali Edwards' One Little Word class at Big Picture Classes, share our monthly assignments on our blog. It is a fantastic way to get inspired and root on other classmates. It has been a fantastic way to keep me accountable. It is often the only thing that keeps me from flaking on my assignments. That being said, I had to be really honest with myself this month...
