RanDoM PoSt--With God, all things are possible...

Random post here! The reason for my randomness is the post below. That cake was hideous and I am not proud of it but I still need to keep it there for my journal. I don't want that to be the first thing seen on my blog.

Anyways, I went to my friend's (who I visit teach and just adore) little baby celebration thing last week and it was kind of like a movie night with the movie above. First of all, I couldn't stay too long because I did not want my husband to think that I abandoned him because it was his birthday so I stayed for a couple of hours and left. They put this movie on. As it started, it brought in the problems that the coach was facing. Of course, the main one..a losing season and things falling apart/other problems. One of the problems was how the wife was unable to get pregnant. I thought to myself, "Great, another movie to remind me that "I" can't get pregnant. Can I just leave now, really..come on." I know that I have adopted two great children but sometimes that just isn't enough and it should be.

Back to the movie, I thought I would half watch it and half do lesson plans in my mind. I wanted time to go by fast. It turned out to not focus solely on that but the football aspect/putting God first which I was thankful for. I was unable to finish watching it and I figured that I would buy it.

So the next day, I did buy it after a glorious time shopping ALONE and we all watched it at home. Husband enjoyed it (I think for the football party) and me..I enjoyed it for the religious part. The film reminds us all that we serve a higher purpose and never to lose faith even in the toughest of times. It really humbled me. I really loved the scripture that they used in the movie.

I always like to look for things that uplift and bring me up. It is hard to do sometimes when your head in buried in the ground.

I liked that movie, too. Except we laughed at some quote at the end, about him being on the "daddy team".

Have you seen the Kirk Cameron one-- I think it's called Fireproof?

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...
