This One Time At Band Camp...




Okay, so I'm doing it. I want YOU ALL to write me a band camp story. Try to keep it PG-13 please. 500-1000 words. Email it to me before June 30th at christa@christadesir.com. I'll post your stories on my blog throughout the month of July. And then maybe people can vote on the stories and I'll give you a MAJOR AWARD for getting the most votes although it is unclear what it will be. But it will be MAJOR.

Keep in mind that all stories must start with: "This one time at band camp..."

They do NOT have to be true. Although if you want them to be because you have an awesome band camp story, then go for it. You do NOT have to be a writer. Just do it. It'll be fun and get your creative juices flowing. Stories will be posted ANONYMOUSLY.

Go forth....

When I Caught Julio Playing With Toys...

So a few nights ago, I came downstairs to find my husband with a camera, messing around with several of the kids' toys.

Me: Do I even want to know?
Him: Nope.

This morning, he brings us all to his computer for this:

Happy Memorial Day, lovelies!

I'm Co-Hosting a Blog Hop




You're invited to join the 
My So-Called Teenage Life Blog Hop
June 21, 2012 
hosted by Amy L. Sonnichsen & Yours Truly

This is going to be so fun!
  
Step One: Sign up on the linky below
Step Two: Dust off those old sappy journals or high school notebooks filled with bad poetry*
Step Three: Skim through them until you find something share-worthy
Step Four: On June 21 POST IT on your blog
Optional: We all love seeing old photos, so if you have one lying around of you as a teen, post that, too.
 
We'll all be hopping around peeking into each others private teenage lives on June 21. Can you imagine a better way to spend the first day of summer?

*Didn't write in a journal or compose poetry as a teenager? Have no fear! Counterfeit entries are welcome! Pretend you're a teenager and write whatever you feel. Just make sure you're using your teenage voice.
And if you're still a teenager, hey, you're going to basically rock this blog hop.
