I’m done with floor hockey and on to dancing.  This is our new unit in gym and I’ve been learning how to do “The Hustle.”  Yah, you know it…..”do the hustle….da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da”.  It’s quite funny seeing a male gym teacher trying to do “the moves” and having third [...]

Yesterday I played a game of floor hockey.  It was the teacher’s vs the sixth graders.  We played two, 10 minute periods and that didn’t sound like much, but we teachers sure were huffing and puffing after those ten minutes.  Luckily we had subs to go in for us, especially if you were playing offense.  [...]

Today the girls participated in a piano competition called “Festival.”  They have to play two memorized pieces of music in front of a judge.  They aren’t competing against anyone, it’s just to challenge themselves.  They score points and work towards a trophy.  This usually takes about three years to earn a trophy.  This was their [...]

Today I celebrated George Washington’s birthday by having the day off.  It just worked out that the teacher’s had a workshop today, so the rest of us benefitted by enjoying a Friday off.  The girls and I declared it  ”pajama day.”  I, however, ended up taking a shower and getting dressed.  They have kept on [...]

Happy Presidents Day!  Today the girls and I enjoyed our day off by going to the movies.  Both Megan & Kelly brought a friend along and we saw, “Enchanted.”  It’s a cute movie with some good old fashion laughing to go along with it.  After that, we came home and Kelly’s friend stayed over to [...]

I’m glad you enjoy my new blog-site, Sister2U.  I was just playing around with this site and figured out how to do this on my own!  I couldn’t wait to show Nate what I had done without his assistance, for once. 
I’ve had such a nice weekend.  I didn’t get to my scrapbooking, but I did nearly finish [...]

It’s been a long week and I’m so glad that it’s Friday.  Another reason to be happy, is that I have a three day weekend!  I have no plans, and plan on doing nothing.  Is that lazy or what?  Maybe I’ll get some scrapbooking done for a change or even finish my book.  See, I [...]

You guys didn’t wait until I posted a Valentine title to start talking about it!  Okay, I spent my entire day with lots of children very excited that it’s Valentines Day, meanwhile supplying them with sugar cookies, candy hearts, frosting, suckers, and chocolate.  I also had to watch parts of E.T., Beauty and The Beast [...]

I watched the finals last night of the Westminster Dog Show and it was fun to see a Beagle win.  It seems those darn poodles are always finishing first.   This dog, named Uno, is so darn cute and is just a normal looking dog rather than being all shaved, puffed, and combed to death.   Snoopy fans [...]

I’m done being a baby.  Going out last night wasn’t so bad after all.  I guess I’m tougher than I think I am.  Nate & I decided to park in the River Center parking ramp to avoid going outside.  It turned out, that we had to park outside anyway.   But it was a short walk [...]
