November School Days :)

I LOVE love love me some fall school

pictures!!!  Hadlee's kindergarten picture

just might be THE sweetest school pic EVER.

And when did my nine year old

turn into the next Justin Beiber?!?  ;)

Little Man doesn't have a school pic yet,

but I swear this is how he rides around

in the back seat of my car.

Just smiling...always smiling! :)

Hadlee was her kindergarten class

scientist and chose to do "Magic Muck"

for her class with Daddy to help! 

They did a great job and

the kiddos loved the magic muck!

Thank Goodness Daddy loves science...

poor girl would have been out of luck if

this experiment had been left up to mommy! ;(

Hard to believe "Little Brother"

will walk down this hall in a few

probably short years... :(

Look who we ran into in the hall way!!!!!!

Our lucky day:)

Also felt really good to see Hadlee's

picture on the Star Student Board!

And even better to see BOTH

Walker AND Hadlee's picture:)))

Makes Troy and me so very proud:)

Hudson loves going to
brother and sister's school!  :)

So does mommy :)

Walker was Student of the Week
in his third grade class!!!

Walker chose his own hero with

absolutely no prompting from me

AND he wrote exactly what he

wanted to say...

I love Walker's handwriting

and the way he draws...

He and I had fun coming up with his "story"!

He did NOT like my idea about telling

how he cried in the dug-out after his homerun.  ;)

This good lookin' boy and

EVERYTHING about him

melts my ever lovin' heart. 

Student for the week
 in Ms. Swafford's class!  :)

We also received second six weeks

report cards and Walker's was EXCELLENT

(how that boy reads as much as he does...has

to have 20 AR points each six weeks...
he's such a reader:)))

and keep up with everything amazes me!
I think third grade math is hard!  ha!)

Hadlee's kindergarten report card

was perfect, too, and I just loved

what Mrs. Decker wrote on it...

My co-teach Stephanie and I had the

priviledge of each having a Baylor teaching

assistant this year.  Their last days were

at the end of November;  so, we had

to celebrate!!!  :)))

Stephanie and Jessica

Ms. Fulton and I on her last day :(

I recently taught a lesson on writing

a personal narrative and I shared

all about Travis and his story. 

This was the picture I chose

to share because Trav's story is
one of hope and love more than anything.
I think this particular picture exemplifies that.

Quite possibly the best lesson

I've ever taught my students. 

We also had FALL Open House

at South Bosque!  Sweetest little

turkey I've ever known (on the left!)...

We are SO thankful for Mrs. Decker :)

Hadlee could not wait to show us her

POWER POINT PRESENTATION!!!!!!!

In Kindergarten :)))

Then it was up stairs to third grade...

My handsome & sweet turkey...

As soon as Walker showed us this replica

of his family visiting South Bosque, he

pointed at "me" and said, "Sorry you were

having a bad hair day!"  HA;)

We are SO thankful for Ms. Swafford

Walker also had a really cool

power point to show us...

It had really neat sound effects ;)

We heart Mrs. Flowers,

their music teacher!

Huds wanted his picture with her, too!!! ;)

My life............

My loves............

And look at the e-mail I get the

next day from Ms. Swafford!
Sweetest teacher EVER:)

Poor baby girl Hadlee had the stomach virus

the week of Thanksgiving...and had to miss

her Thanksgiving party :( Since Mommy was

in charge of it, I still had to go and set

things up.  Sweet Girl was so sad to miss :(

I was SO thankful for awesome moms

who stepped up and took over the party

so I could get back to Haddie. 

My new, dear friend Amanda really

took one for the team by

doing the Indian Fry Bread!

Mrs. Decker sent home Haddie's

Indian vest and necklace she

had made to wear at the party. 

To cheer Hadlee up,

 I put it on! ;)))

Every aspect of my life is a blessing!

Even in the very difficult, very sad

aspects there are STILL blessings

all around!!!!!!!!!!!!
