Getty Snaps

Getty recently taught Evee (his friend's Spanish-speaking housekeeper), how to use Skyward to access her son's grades—which turned out to be all F's, except for one A (in Spanish :). She asked, "Is that good?" Getty sent her this text:



(Going back a few months now....)

Earned Varsity Letter and approval for his Eagle project... and is decked out in his scout uni.

Stirloaf forgot a pillow for camp. Bought a new one...

On his way to hang out with Cooper and some cute girls, Getty did a double-take on his shabby, dirt-smeared jeans (bike jumps) and tiny t-shirt (growth spurt), and decided he had a little more pride than all that. But here's the thing (he explained)—the girls had already seen what he was wearing, so how could he change clothes without looking like he was trying too hard?


This is what he came up with... 

 Subtle.

Popping a knee

Stirling, haha

And here's a poem Getty wrote and shared with his English class on the teacher's subject "Paris Afternoon":

Boy oh boy how I wish I was in France
I'd find a fille and ask her to dance

We'd tour around Paris in the afternoon, 
then kiss and kiss until the full moon

We'd have good conversation over a nice cuppa tea,
then go searching for the highest tree

Once we found a tree that scrapes the clouds,
we'd climb and climb til the ground was a shroud

Once on top we'd get lost in our love
until I'm ready to give a good shove

Down she falls falling to her doom
What better way to spend a Paris afternoon?




Nice.


Prepped for the Young Men's/Young Women's Black and White Splat Attack. Wear black (or your red & white Assassin's Creed leather jacket) and battle cute girls with flour bombs.

Driver's license! All business...

A couple weeks later, he was driving (too fast) in his friend's parents' suburban w/ trailer and swerved into the oncoming lane to avoid two skateboarders in his lane at the bottom of a hill. The driver behind him followed him home and reported him with his address to the police for reckless driving. That was the day he received his permanent license in the mail. 

This isn't going so well....
