Comfy Day!

Posted by: cathincolor on: February 27, 2009

Today at school was “comfy day.”  This is a fun day where the kids can wear their pajama’s, bring blankets, stuffed animals, snacks and even a pillow (as long as they don’t fall asleep).  Most of the grades scoot the desks out of the way and the kids just lay on the floor and read [...]

Festival!

Posted by: cathincolor on: February 21, 2009

This morning, Megan & Kelly performed at the annual Piano Festival.  This is where they are to play two songs, which they have memorized, in front of a judge.  They are scored on things such as dynamics, rhythm and missed notes.  They have each done this for two years now and have scored a perfect [...]

I had such a nice Friday.  It started out by not having to go to work.  We had the day off because of a “professional” day, which meant that all the teachers had meetings to attend.  I got a few things done around the house this morning, took a 15 minute nap this afternoon and [...]

Lewis & Clark

Posted by: cathincolor on: February 19, 2009

Tonight we went and watched Megan in her 5th grade program.  They put on a performance of Lewis & Clark.  It was very funny and very well done.   Megan was in a song & dance called, “life’s rough.”  She and nine other kids were dressed in puppy ears and paws and performed a fun and cute [...]

Be My Valentine!

Posted by: cathincolor on: February 14, 2009

Today is Valentines Day and I am having a nice, relaxing one.  In the morning I cleaned the house so that I could relax on the couch all afternoon and read my new book.  I have just finished baking a batch of brownies so the house smells wonderful and now Nate is making Ciabatta bread, [...]

Friday the 13th

Posted by: cathincolor on: February 13, 2009

I’ve been having a tough week, health wise.  I’ve had three migraine headaches in four days.  And being that it’s Friday the 13th, I was doomed to get one this morning as I awoke.  Not cool on party day at school.  I was able to get rid of the pain before I left for school, [...]

Scrapbooking

Posted by: cathincolor on: February 8, 2009

I had a successful weekend of scrapbooking.  I started Friday afternoon around 2:30 p.m. and I finished up around 2:00 this afternoon.  I went with my friend Dawn.  We stayed at the Archer House Historical Hotel in Northfield, MN.  This is our third year of attending this event and we really enjoy it and get quite a few [...]

Late Start

Posted by: cathincolor on: February 5, 2009

Today we have a Late Start day.  I enjoy having these two hours extra in the morning.  I took Kelly to the orthodontists, got a crock pot meal ready and still have time to check emails and blog.   I feel relaxed.   Tomorrow, I am off to a scrapbooking retreat in Northfield MN,  with my friend [...]

Netflix

Posted by: cathincolor on: February 3, 2009

I feel as though we’re ‘keeping up with the Jones’ because the Solberg’s have now joined Netflix.   We’ve been toying with this idea for about a year now and this weekend, Nate hit the buttons and signed us up!   All four of us chose some movies that we were interested in.  Not knowing what one [...]

Weekend Fun

Posted by: cathincolor on: February 1, 2009

The weekend’s not over yet, but it sure has been a fun one and the weather has been great!  Yesterday it was 40 degree’s!  It felt like a spring day.  On Friday night, Nate & I went to my work party at the Principal’s house.  There was a good crowd of people and then the [...]
