Happy Graduation!!

 


It's here, it's here, it's finally here. The day my son graduates from High School. I could not be more proud. School has not always been my son's favorite thing, but he loves the socializing so he would go everyday. But now, on to the next chapter.

    Melony and Greg have been planning this party for a couple of weeks now. They got all James' favorite foods, invited his closest friends, and all of his family. 




And what's the theme? An outdoor barbeque. We secured the park in Shedville and drove over from Hometown. Greg's on the grill and Melony is in charge of getting tons of pictures, and Aayla needs to greet the guests.


It makes me remember my own graduation party. I had to plan it myself, but my Dad did make the invitations. I wish I still had one of them, but I remember it said, "Bring lots of gifts and make sure your pockets are lined in cash. My daughter's graduating!" That's just my Dad's sense of humor. I remember that we had a water balloon fight as entertainment during the party. That was a lot of fun. 

I hope James has just as much fun at his party.


Happy Graduation, James!!

Shedville Academy 2024

  While on Spring Break, Shedville Academy got a make over. The classrooms got cleaned, they added a music/AV room, and they got an entire new gym where they eat lunch. Here's the tour: Those kids ran out of here so fast for Spring Break that they left behind a huge mess. This locker got tucked behind the AV room. This little area next to the lockers is getting set up for the upcoming Science Fair. Then the AV room goes in front of all this. Students are going to be able to vote for a class president when they return. The Gym/ Cafeteria The school just keeps growing and growing, but to save on space they set the gym up as a Cafeteria. It's a little messy right now, but it's still under constuction. There's still boxes from the schools Toy & Book Donations over Christmas. The bottom shelf is a great place for kids that brought their lunches to store them. But it's gotten a little overloaded with snacks. The basketball hoops also fold up, getting them out of the w...

I'm back!

 As some of you know, I started out here on Blogger. But when they updated a few years ago, things got glitchy. I decided it was time to just pay for a domain. And AnAmericanGirlMom.com was born. This was expensive but fun. I also thought that I could make money from my blog (like they say online). I never made a dime. I followed all the "make money" tips and followed YouTubers advice for setting up the blog, and nothing. Good thing I don't do this for the money. Why do I do this? I love sharing my dolls and their stories with the world. I love posting on Facebook and Instagram. I love making short stop motions for my YouTube channel. Having my own domain really helped to share my stories. The unforeseen problem is that once my domain expired, so did all my content. I really hate that. I feel like everything I spent my money on should still be available, but it isn't. Years of content gone unless I renew it. This wasn't true with Blogger. For the 1st year with ana...
