Creating our walkway


We are creating a walkway to our garden and camp area. We had a bag of cement lying around so we thought we would try it and it was fun. We ran out of cement and were able to do 2 1/2 molds. We are going to make more this weekend hopefully. It will look cool by the end of the summer. I will post pictures then.

We planted our garden on Saturday. I hope that I can actually grow something in it. It is my first experience with a bigger garden. I kind of suck at gardening as I give up or I forget to water it..But I am determined to make this garden grow..darn it! I still need to plant some cucumbers, watermelon, and my gigantic pumpkins.

Clay and I also spread out some more grass seed today on more of our acre. We have about 2-3 more bags to go and we will be done. We decided to skip putting in some sprinklers which will be on our list for next year. (Maybe) We decided to put grass in our campground. We were going to leave it bare but my other sprinklers hit so..might as well seed it. I really hope this grass grows or I am not going to be a happy camper.

Busy week

Sorry no pictures. I have been so busy this week to a point where I am sure to have a nervous breakdown. First, I have a student teacher in my room over the next 10 weeks. I thought it would be a welcome relief to give her things to teach but I am more exhausted and it is tiring work. Then grades had to be put in and it was down over the Christmas break so I had a huge pile to get in. Parent teacher conferences were on Thursday. I didn't meet with alot. I met with most of my students'  parents. The one that I wanted to talk to of course didn't show. My own children are doing great in class. Brayden is started to read more and more each day. He is reading near the end of his grade level. Lyndee knows all of her alphabet and sounds. They finally let her check out a library book. Yippee! Sometimes I wish that they would treat Kindergarten with more rigor toward the middle of the year to get them ready for first. Just my opinion. My house is feeling very neglected and wil...

Day 5 -- Vacation

On Wednesday, our last day in the land of the heat. We went to the Mesa Southwest Museum. I guess it is call the Museum of Natural History. In all my years living in the valley and in Eagar, we never went to this museum. It rocked! I wished that I could take my students there. This room was all black with flourescent lighting. The kids could write on those white board with light wands. Whatever the kids wrote would be gone in about 20-30 seconds. It was pretty cool. I loved the interactive the stuff. I have been wanting to do this for years with my classroom. I have wanted them to create their plays. Then act them out in front of a green screen and then use a computer program to put their scenery in. I think I am going to find a grant and write one! Sister Lou loved being on T.V. We would couldn't drag this little starlet off it. Isn't this cute? They got behind the TV and now they are projected into an old western. They had a part of the old territorial prison in th...
