Birthday a bit Late!

I usually hate when people post things in hindsight, but my birthday was awesome and I never told you all about it.

The best part was having the day off to spend with my cute little family. Such a good relaxation.

We first bought a car. Soon the little Nissan just won't fit two car seats comfortably. We went with a Honda Pilot. It has lots of bells and whistles including my favorite the sunroof and Ellis' future favorite, a DVD

We then headed to lunch and I ate a delicious cheeseburger. Then it was off to the aquarium in salt lake. We all had a great time there. And Ellis didn't want to leave. And the coolest part was it being free because of a really nice family offering us to be their guests in their membership that day.

Crossing the rope bridge..

                                                                 I love the smiles on stingrays.

Funny turtle.

 We were there for the penguin feeding.

A few friends also stopped by for ice cream and cake, later that evening. A perfect end to a perfect day!  Only one more year until I face 40!

A Few Haikus

I wrote many, many haikus during testing this week at school.  Here are a few of the best ones:

Zombie Testing

Standardized testing

Like a room full of zombies

But eating own brains.

The Zombie Walk

Zombies walk to school

Slowly, slowly, slow they go.

Too Late, school's over.

If Zombies Took Test

Zombies taking tests

With much different standards

Brains and flesh eating.

Zombie Baseball

Zombies play baseball

Hitting eyeballs with leg bones

No crack of bat; splat.

Zombie Billiards

Zombies shooting pool

Nine-ball would be nine eyeballs.

Sticks would be Femurs.
