Parent-Child Night

Last night was parent-child night at the dudes' school. It was a delightful evening. Each boy showed us a couple of works they enjoy. I felt very proud of my smart men as I watched them demonstrate all they have learned.

Their teachers had nothing but positive feedback. The boys are doing wonderfully with the classroom routine, making many new friends, and overall, being awesome dudes.

Here are a few pictures.

Fitness Class, Here I Come!

Don't expect me to show up in an outfit like this.

So, Facebook has this thing where it tells you what your status was 1 year ago today. Well, friends, 1 year ago today, I "wanted a cheese coney." This was preceeded by yesterday's 1 year ago today status of, "Allison Gastright made caramel popcorn." Have I always been obsessed with food? Could be worse, I reckon. But, there is hope yet, children. I have enlisted a few friends and we are embarking on a journey of physical fitness. Monday nights we shall attempt Zumba and Thursday nights we shall attend a beginners' workout class. I will let you know if I survive.

On another note, I have turned into my husband. I am now obsessed with cars. Why? I do not need another unhealthy obsession (and I do not need another car). Why can't I be obsessed with cleaning my house? Or eating vegetables? Or doing my homework?

Speaking of homework...it's that time again. First day of class is tomorrow. Wish me luck! Prepare thyself for a 4-month long period of bitching and moaning from yours truly. Here's to hoping I can pull it off and actually graduate in December!
