Outsiders day



So I dressed all up, and didn't manage to get a picture of myself. but I did get some of the teahers and a bunch of the
students. I ahve included some teacher pics but no students as that is a very big breach of the law and we don't want that. It was alot of fun.
the students had a blast dressing up. We watched the movie and had a good old fasstion rumble. Actually there was a trivia game that the Socs won in my class, then there was charades. Watching these kids act out a rumble was funny enough and no one got hurt. Of course there were the usual jokes of takeing them out back and jsut letting them go but we didn't as that would get us all in alot of trouble. But all in all it was great and I think the kids really did well to remember the book this way as they were exposed more and more to it. Living what you read, is a great way to learn it.

Annevsary's and baby firsts

Okay, let see, our 4th annavsary was this week. We have been married four years. It feels a little longer. I guess we have just packed alot into it and that makes it seem longer. I am really very happy/glad, that I married brad. He has been supportive when I have been flipping out. He takes care of me, and needs me, he is calmed by me when he is flipping out, he has created the cutest little bear with me, we have shared laughs, football games, Musicals, movies, TV shows, books, basketball games, tears, hardship, lack of funs... in short, the better and the worse, the richer and the poorer, the sickness and the health, alaughter and the sorrow, I married a very specail man and I am truly blessed because of it. I can't thank God enough that He saved bard for me. As for First, this week the baby slept all night for the first time. We fed her at 9:00 pm, put her down and she doesn't get up til around 7:30. (of course if we get up early and start moving around she wakes up too) but ...

Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Sanity

Okay so this week has been a little wild. Between getting ready for testing at school. Trying to keep students who are ready for summer focused. PMSing, Brad having his huge action research proposal due yesterday and many other little things, I have felt just the slightest bit overwhelmed. I will say that Sanjya finally got voted off American Idol. He couldn't sing, coldn't dance and there and there was really no reason he made it this far above and beyond that people wanted to see what crazy thing he would do each week. Well finally they got it through their heads that he coudln't sing and sent him packing, me and Simon Cowl were thrilled. Please continue to pray for brad, his feet and shins are still bothering him. wE think it is shin splints but we are not sure. He is giving them the 2-4 week rest period that shin splints need and if they don't get better he will go to the dr. as I mentioned above, testing starts next week, here in teh state of Kentucky, and th...
