Random and Odd…on the street

This is proof that I am the best mother that ever lived. I let the 12 year old take a couple pictures with the BAMF camera. AND further proof (not that we need any in this department) that I am the bestest girlfriend. EVER. I let Shaun take the BAMF camera to work today to get some pictures. Pick the jaws up off the keyboard people…it was bound to happen.

Everythings been on a low range simmer in the house lately. Progress reports, softball games, casts, fingersplints, Shea dropping her camera and then TRYING TO HIDE IT FROM ME, driving back and forth from school three times each morning, allergies, old people, little people…i’m starting to crack.
I went to the school the other day and decided to grab a few pictures. I went into the the older girls classroom this certain day for a purpose. I wanted to get a picture of Marina’s boyfriend. What I found was a wonderland of cool things to take pictures of. Did I mention that 6th graders are camera whores?

It’s been almost a whole school year that I have been hearing stories about the sixth grade boy wonder, Ty Po (that’s not his name…just a version of it)
Ty Po is like, OMG, the most popular boy in all of sixth grade. There is the constant chatter of what Ty Po did today, what he wore, who he talked to and in hushed tones…who he likes.
Ty Po can be found as the first name on any girls *M*A*S*H* ‘boys I will marry’ list.

I am of course curious as to what this kid looks like. I’m thinking we got ourselves a little Brad Pitt or George Clooney on our hands.

I was WRONG.

This my internet friends and family is the most popular boy in 6th grade. I couldn’t figure out why. I asked the girls and they said he was linked to have ‘gone with’ Taylor F, who happens to be the, like, OMG, most popular girl that EVER was. Seriously. omg. yeah.

It was Friday so after school I took the older girls to the pizza place so they could hang out and be cool. This is where I witnessed Ty Po in all his glory. He was hanging out with his friends doing his thang.

No really. To be THIS cool. You should have seen these group of boys just flying off the stairs with their boards. They had ‘looking’ bad ass down to an art form.
I tried to remember what was cool when I was in 6th grade…and then I remembered it and dear God it doesn’t get worse than this…
