Just Weird
This was one that I did not know was a picture but Kassidy had told me they saw a dead animal on their field trip. Just weird.

Karina had this photo on her camera when I downloaded it today. I thought it would be fun to share.

Trip to Federal Way
I had a great trip to Federal Way and the snow came while I was there. It doesn't stay long there though.
On the 2nd we went to Lacey to the Shipwreck Bead store. I really have enough to do lots of things now. I almost have them sorted. It was fun, someday I wouldn't mind going back.
They even had a snack bar if you spend to much time.
In Lacey they also have a Cabela's it is almost as good as the zoo but the animals are stuffed except for the fish. It was fun to see all of them. The fish were big and we all would like to catch them.
I made it home with a purse full of beads. They had to inspect my purse, all they could see was a big ball of black. After he got them out he said you've got a lot of beads there. The plane from Seattle was late leaving so we got to Salt Lake late but the plane to Cedar was delayed so I made the plane and got home to everyone at the airport. It was fun to see them all. We went to the house and emptied the suitcase that was full of pants from Julie. It was a good trip and everything went well. It did snow today but I did get all the Christmas decorations down and put away. Yay. I hope it does get warmer, it was cold in Federal Way but not as cold as here. The ice is thick and getting thicker. 
Gwen's Birthday
We had a fun party for Gwen she had a hard time getting the candles blown out. I think she was to excited.
Back to the Swing of Things
I guess its time to get back into the swing of things. Today was my first day back to school with cold and all in more ways than one. Meaning that I have a cold, it is freezing outside, and it is freezing in the school. They can't get it warm enough in here because it is so stinking cold outside. So it is really cold in many ways. I guess that just makes it even nicer to go home and have a bath or snuggle up in a blanket. It makes me excited to get home. I am always excited to get home but even more now. This first day back has been pretty casual my kids have just had mostly a free day playing The Game of Life and what not. It has been nice for me hopefully them as well! Tomorrow we are getting back into the whole "learning" scene so hopefully it was nice before they do that. Some of my classes have to take tests so this week my students will just be studying away. Fun for them I hope I just taught them the things they need to know for the test because I can't see what is on the test at all. I can see what the standards are and the number of questions that go with them but that is it. So hopefully it all works out for them because in a sense that reflects on what kind of teacher I am or how good I am doing. Things are good so far. It was actually nice to get back home and sleep in our own bed I actually slept last night for a change. I guess I slept when we were on vacation but not really through the night and not really that well at all so its nice to be back for that reason and it feels that it was time even though breaks are always great! Joe and I were talking about how great really the fact that I am a school teacher is because they have such great breaks. How many other jobs get that long off from work. Anyway I was just thinking how blessed in so many ways we are! Especially, to have a job and one that helps us out quite a bit. To have food on the table, money in the bank, roof over out heads. The list goes on and on! Anyway, sorry for my long spill. I just noticed nobody has posted on here for awhile. Lea
