Tierra in September

Since Tierra's birthday is this Friday the 11th. I'm going to blog about nothing else but her the rest of this month. She never gets any air time because it seems my 3 hoodlums...i mean boys keep me very busy. As a teenager Tierra spends more time at home while we go out, or out with friends while we stay home. When we are home together she is either doing homework, exercising, dancing or doing her nails in her bedroom, watching something on the "other TV" or her number one favorite thing to do is lay out in the sun. (Mine too) That will soon be ending with fall on the way.

She has done a lot this summer but I will start with her getting a car from her dad last week since she is turning 16 on her birthday.
Phillip just moved to Las Vegas in October but he still has a house here and a huge family that he comes to visit. Since he has a truck and a company car, he gave Tierra his '96 Mazda. The only catch is that when he is in town he gets to use it which means it's still in his name, on his insurance and fully covered by him!! Hallelujah! What a deal!

She has her drivers permit and is taking Drivers Ed at Northridge this semester but she won't be able to get her license until around December. And it will be snowy and icey so I don't see her driving it by herself any time soon! She has been driving the family Suburban so this little car probably seems much more manageable.

She can't wait to get some girly seat covers etc. She already hung a lei on the rearview mirror the day she brought it home!

We haven't taken any pics besides this one on my cell phone which isn't very clear...more pics to come!
