I'm Baaaack!


Being without the Internet STINKS!  It has been 1 week since we switched Internet carriers.  During that time I was completely shut off from society.  I have not been able to blog, check email, or see what's going on in the news.  It's been awful!  But I'm back and ready to blog stalk all of my friends and family.  So much has happened this past week.  Let's start with Brody's first grade program last week.  It was called The Unity Tree.  Being that I taught 1st grade, I have strong opinions about what goes on in Brody's class.  Enough said,  don't want to hurt any one's feelings or start a riot!!
Brody was a cat in the program.  He did a super job.  

How do you like his whiskers and nose?  The teacher had me paint the kids faces with REAL paint.  I'm glad it's not my day job!

Valentine's Day was perfect this year.  First we went to church.  I was in charge of sharing time which was fun.  After church, Jeremy the kids and I headed to the grocery store where they got steaks and potatoes for our Valentine's dinner.  They all gave me flowers that they picked out.  It was wonderful.  We ate dinner outside and played Valentine's Bingo.  It was perfect!
Look at these LOOONG stemmed roses my boys got me.  They were taller then them.  Ledger is missing from the picture because he was throwing a fit so we made him go to his room.
I wasn't able to get any pictures of Miss B. in her cute handmade Valentines Day skirt and shirt. She looked adorable in her red leg warmers, red onesie and vintage skirt.  Here is a funny picture of  her and Case.  He loves to hold her while standing.  I can't tell if she likes it or not?  She looks a little frightened!

Oh I bet your boys teachers are so glad to have you as a mom in their class! Brody looks like such a cute cat!

Your valentine's day sounds perfect and your lesson was wonderful. I was so impressed with the great way you taught such a big concept to little kids. I'm so grateful to have you to teach our primary kids, really! :) And I second that Berkley looked ADORABLE in her Valentine's outfit- too bad we usually stuff our cute, dressed up girls into baby carriers, haha!
