Don't read this mom!

I know that I have done some crazy things in the past, and you would think I've grown out of it. Well not exactly! Cassidy decided that she needed a Twilight T-shirt. We looked all over the mall and couldn't find anywhere to buy them. She really wanted one to wear to the movie the next day. So being the good aunt that I am, when I got home I googled Twilight T-shirts to see if I could find somewhere to buy one before the next day. I found a blog that had a lady who was trying to sell Twilight T-shirts to take her family to DisneyWorld. She said she would be around Layton Hills Mall selling shirts. On a whim I decided to call and see if she was still in the area. At this point it was 9:00pm ish. She sounded so nice on the phone and said she would come to my house with the shirts. I was a little nervous about that so I said I would just meet her somewhere. She suggested Tai Pan parking lot. Sure I thought, a well lit busy parking lot why not! CRAZY! I dragged Lori with me and met some strange lady in the parking lot at 10:30pm to buy Twilight T-shirts! She was nice as can be and the T-shirts where really cute. Cassidy and her friend Kailey loved them.

Early Thanksgiving Dinner

Last Thursday we took the Kindergarten kids into the lunchroom for Thanksgiving lunch. It was so much fun. The kids were so excited to find their placemat that they made. They were even more excited about the yummy food. (yes lunchroom food can be yummy) They all did such a good job getting their food and not making any messes. One of my students said "Teacher, can we do this everyday?" I said "You sure can, everyday in 1st grade!" Good thing kindergarteners don't have a real sense of time yet!

Utah State Hey! Aggies All The Way!

Anyone who knows me, know how much I love the Aggies! Okay, I know I didn't graduate from Utah State, and yes I know Aggie football is horrible! And yes! I know Fiesta Bowl bla bla bla! (thats for you Jeramiah) I still love those Aggies! Recently Sharla and Jeramiah went to the USU vs BSU football game. And, well the Aggies got crushed, as expected. Way to go Sharla and Lauren for supporting the team! I love the T-shirts!

Yea! Lauren! You make your Auntie proud!

Don't worry Logan there is still time! Cute! Cute! Even in orange!

Twilight

I joined the masses! Karen, Cassidy and I will be going to see Twilight on opening day. We purchased our tickets today. I hope the movie is as good as the book! The movies never seem to be as good, but I'm holding out hope! I know people have all sorts of opinions about Twilight. All I can say is that my beautiful niece who hasn't read more than Junie B. Jones in her lifetime was drawn into these books. I was thrilled to see her pulling out her book whenever we had a free moment. So, say what you want about the books, but I've enjoyed them and I can't wait to see the movie!

Top 5 reasons I love October

This has been the best month! I have been so busy, but we have had a lot of fun!

I love everything about October! But here are some highlights

#1 Corn Maze

David looks like he had blast!

#2 High School Musical 3

I went with almost all of my nieces and nephews to High School Musical 3. I wasn't that excited to see it, but I have to admit that I liked it!

#3 Crazy Costumes

This is Jaxson, one of my students from last year. This was at a horse costume contest. He was a battery and the horse was the Energizer Bunny. It was so cute and he WON!

#4 Birthday Fun

My parents and sisters came to school on my birthday. It was so fun for them to meet all of my students that they hear so much about. They brought cupcakes for the kids and they LOVED the ones with black frosting!

#5 Class Parties!

This has been the first year that the students have been able to wear costumes to school and have a costume parade. It was so much fun. Thank goodness for great room parents who took on the challenge and created a really fun day!
