Busy is good, right?

This week is going fast, but now that I said that, it will probably slow down. It was a nice day. Worked(the kids were good), prepared for tomorrow and then headed to Salt Lake for the Bees game. Great night for baseball.



It was fun to go with my friend, Emily. I was glad she wanted to go, even on a school night(she is a teacher too). I have fun friends.

I also have a nice bed. I am off to it!

Sunday.

Seeing I am conscious I thought I'd post twice in a day. Seems like the right thing to do when I am a major slacker during the week and don't feel exhausted right now! Here is to having a quick week with less exhaustion. I like that idea!

Chilled with the Hageys in Layton tonight. We know how to party. Sodastream mixers and butterscotch chip chocolate heath cookies. Party animals. They were also kind and made me dinner which is typical of most Sundays. And the organic grass fed beef hamburgers with special seasonings were divine! I am spoiled. Thanks Morgan and Derek!

Here's some pics of the kiddos because they are pretty much dang cute:



Ezra was ecstatic at dinner.



So much so he was drooly.


He would kick his little legs and screetch. So cute!



Oliver was stylin' with the boots and big as him backpack!



O as Captain America. He told me to "punch it!," so I did!



Another version of Captain America.

I love these kiddos. I think they help recharge my batteries. Spencer gave me a ton of hugs. Henry, Spencer and Oliver let me be the pony outside. And Henry thinks I should come visit every Sunday except when they are away, of course. So funny.

Well. The bed calls. The question is: will Alice get up early to run in the cool weather? Odds are 40%. ;)

Oh Weekends How I Love Thee!

The weekend is almost over. It has gone much too fast, but that is what happens. This week felt like five. I was so exhausted by Friday night. I just hung out at home and vegged.

Yesterday, I headed to Heber with my friend and co-worker, Sharri, to visit our friend, Kristi, who had a baby in the end of July. Here are a few pics of cute Ky:



A confused look



Me and the tired one.



Sharri had the magic touch and got him to sleep.



He's a cutie.



So sleepy.



Here are Kurt and Kristi's first "kids". Their chickens always make me smile. They also gave me some veggies from their garden. Yum!

Now off to church and then up to Layton for some quick hugs from the wee boys and back to sleep for Monday. Where did this weekend go?

Hard to believe that on only the third day of school, that I have a funny story to tell you.

My students were finished with an assignment and a student decided to collect them all and turn them in. Instead, he takes them and throws them in the garbage. He then realized that he threw away his own assignment an was holding onto another student's assignment!(he thought he had saved his own). I told him that he was going to make the blog and here it is.

It is fun getting to know the new students and getting into the swing of things. I do have a great job! Life is good!



Location:A class funny.

Does it feel like September in here? Or is it just me?

Hi. Life is good. School has started and it has been going well so far. I forgot how exhausting it is to be a teacher and excited all day long. It has been hard to get up in the morning and I am already so tired at night! It feels like we have been doing this for two weeks already! Is it September yet?

I went to The Despicables last night as part of Provo City Park's Movies in the Park. It was fun to be outside on a nice night. Glad I went even if it made getting up today a bit harder!

It was a pretty night for it and I saw two shooting stars.







I am glad for this school year and today even felt like this is what I am good at. My students are already making my life fun. What a great job!

Now for sleeping. So tired!
