Ok, so I have decided a little while ago that whenever the kids were in the newspaper (which acutally happens a lot in a small town) I would clip it and put it in my blog...part of our family history. My husband reminded me that I was in the newspaper. Darn that! Oh well. Sheesh, I need to do something different with my hair. Any ideas? Here is the article for the Palo Verde Valley Times:
Palo Verde College students named to the President’s List and Dean’s List for the Spring 2008 semester were honored at a special ceremony Oct. 21. Present to receive their certificates of recognition were (from left): Rachel Barnard, President’s List; Nereida M., President’s List; Cassi S., President’s List; Christina B., Dean’s List; Elizabeth C., Dean’s List; and Daniela M., President’s List.

One hundred eighteen Palo Verde College students were honored Oct. 21 for achieving grade point averages (GPA) of 3.5 or higher for the Spring 2008 semester.
Sixty-one students were named to the President's List for maintaining a GPA of 3.8 to 4.0. Of that number, 54 had a perfect 4.0 average.
Fifty-seven students were named to the Dean's List for maintaining a GPA of 3.5 to 3.79 for semester.
Diana Rodriguez, PVC Vice President of Student Services, noted that a number of the honor students were married, some with up to six children, some worked full-time in addition to attending classes, and several were now full-time employees of the college.
She thanked "family members, friends and loved ones" for their support of the students.
Dr. James Hottois, PVC Superintendent/President, in welcoming students and guests said all three of the college's vice presidents were Palo Verde College graduates.
He told the audience that he would "like to return to PVC in 20 years and see that current students had become administrators, vice presidents and even president" of the college.
Dr. Hottois was joined by Willie Smith, Vice President of Instructional Services, in presenting certificates to the honor students.

Good job, Smachie!! I honestly don't know how you can juggle all of these things. That is incredible. I didn't get very stellar grades in college, and I didn't have a household to run or any kids! Hm. As far as what to do to your hair... I don't know. Maybe an a-line to your chin? I think that's a cute haircut.
