"I going to toot in your face!"--Henry
oh and another Henry quote: "If this were an elephant dance, would you give me a peanut?"
I also said something very cool as I snuck up on a student in the hall: "Yeah I took the sneakret way." Nice combo of sneaky and secret, no? And I didn't even mean to say it. I rock.
It's Good Knowing You. Is it Friday, Yet? See Ya In The Future. Living the dream. Whatev. Live. Laugh. Love. Plant Smiles. Grow Laughs. Harvest Love. You Can Take The Girl Out Of Wisconsin But You Can't Take The Wisconsin Out Of The Girl. Glimpses. Love Generously. Praise Loudly. Live Fully.

The rest of the weekend.
I had a great weekend. It was nice to just be around the house and enjoy it. I also did some cleaning which was very nice.

I had a great time at a church activity on Saturday. I wish I had taken more pictures but the one above is the only one.

I went hiking after the activity. It was pretty and I had a blast!

I hung out with the Hageys on Sunday. Spencer thought it was majorly funny to have his sock in the picture.

Here is me and three of the four wee cute boys. Notice the helmets? This was the brainwashing contraption Henry came up with. That kid is a nerdy funny genius!
Monday is over. Only two days until Fall Break. Yipee!

Why don't people post on the weekends?
Hi guys. Have you noticed that people do not post much on their blogs on the weekends? I have totally noticed that. I think I need to be a person who blogs at least once on the weekend. I have been pretty poor about blogging lately. I need to change that as well. I think I am going to publicly pledge to be better at blogging. I totally stole what I will be posting from Jill and Kate, who happen to be Kelly Clarkson's backup singers and actually have their own music too. You should check them out because they are groovy. Here is a like to their post on their BLOG that gave me the idea for the following rambling! (If you are a novice, click on BLOG in the last sentence to be taken to their blog! :) Basically, this is a bit People magazine does each issue for random celebrities called "One Last Thing". I think of myself as a celebrity most days so here goes:
THE LAST TIME I LAUGHED OUT LOUD...:
I laughed out loud at my Relief Society meeting at church today because I was making a happy journal and found this really cool animated bear on some scrap book paper who had a really weird look on its face and then realized later that the face was due to the fact that said bear was flactuating. I find that hilarious. Silly potty humor.
LAST VACATION...
The whole summer! The last one I am remembering is the trip to Chicago this summer but I think I also count the road trip back to Utah as a vacation. I also was in Manila, Utah for a long weekend a few weeks ago and that felt like vacation. Thanks Sarah! :)
LAST CARD I SENT...
My mother's birthday card. I sure do love that lady and really need to get a hold of her this weekend! Where are you mother?
LAST THING I BOUGHT ONLINE...
A new iPhone case. Mine is starting to have that old beat up look and I really want another Body Glove one. I had one on my iPod Touch and loved it. It should get here on Monday. It was a fiasco to get it because I ordered one a few weeks ago and the people sent me the wrong one. If it is wrong again, I may cry a little.
LAST SHOW I WATCHED...
I have been watching The Doctors religiously lately because Jillian Michaels is now on there and I think she is amazing. Sometimes watching that show is irritating because some of the things the docs think are important are not and they are often very pro health care and I sometimes feel like a hippy and want more natural medicine. Jillian makes it very balanced though and I have been finding that I really have a lot of the same views as her. We totally would be friends if we knew each other!
That was fun. Maybe I should make that a weekly bit on here. I hope you enjoyed it. I also hope you are enjoying your weekend. They only come once a week afterall!

Have I Mentioned that I Love Fall?

My friend, Helena and I decided to go hiking yesterday on a whim. Sometimes the best things that happened are unplanned!

Rock Canyon is so pretty this time of year. Well, most places are pretty this time of year. I am loving it!




I really do live in a pretty place. I also have cool people to hang with. I am a blessed kid!
I also ran a 9 minute mile yesterday. My students were running for their first fitness test for PE and I decided to join in. Makes me feel pretty darn good to have run a mile about five minutes faster than I did in high school. It's been an amazing journey!
I am very glad for the weekend and that next week is short due to fall break. Life is good!

Hi from my couch.
Hi. This post comes to your from my couch. I have been here much of the day. I caught a blasted cold from some infected individual. I decided that I would rather get sub plans ready quickly at three this morning and be able to head back to my bed rather than suffering on my feet all day and infecting others. Aren't I so very selfless? Basically, I slept tons and watched a movie and read. It was nice. Too bad sick days cannot be filled with cleaning and laundry because I would be ahead of the game today!
The weekend was a nice one looking back at it. The Hageys moved about 45 minutes closer to me which makes my life so much better because I do not have to drive and hour and a half to get nephew time. They were very good during the moving process even if they had their moments. Here they are giving crusty faces in the van prior to heading to the new place:

Ezra rather liked being carried around all day even though I thought he looked rather pathetic.

Morgan is a trooper and one of the most amazing people on the planet. I don't think there is anything that she can't do! She amazes me each day with her motherly instinct and brains!(and yes, Morgan, when I wrote "brains" I heard it in my head like on Plants vs. Zombies!)

These amazing teen boys were on the Salt Lake end of the move and we were so glad they were around. What workhorses they were! Very much worth the 8 pizza payment! Little bro, Josh, is the second on the right.
I was glad to help move and am wishing Morgan and the crew luck on the box unpacking weeks ahead. I hate moving and glad that this time it wasn't me!
The rest of the weekend was filled with church, giving my number to boys, eating lasagna with The Salt Lake family and watching football. Here are the boys while watching "Green Packers:"

Be warned, football viewing may encourage and fester violence in young children, just sayin'.
Yesterday was a typical Monday.
Today was a non-typical Tuesday and I am ready for a typical Wednesday tomorrow. Here is to less snot and more energy for future Alice!
How has your week been so far?
