attention to all students

please

1) put your name on your paper

2) turn in your work

it's not that hard. i am pretty sure you learn how to do this in kindergarten, maybe 1st grade.

my mother loves me

and bought me 3 pairs of shoes!

say goodbye to the hobo named kali who wears shoes with holes in them to school.

its raining, its pouring

and i love it! that monsoon storm this morning was lovely!

what is the most disgusting place on earth?

high school bathrooms.

seriously you know it is true.

early mornings, awesome husband, and some sweet golfing

its been a week of student teaching. good thus far. mostly just observing introductions and all the boring beginning of the year stuff. one down side= a hour. i have forgotten how bad waking up for a hour is. waking up at 5:30 is just not for me. i know its not really that early, but i am so not a morning person. i am really dreading the days when 5:30 means its dark and cold and getting out of our warm bed. on the brighter side of things i don't have a fifth or a sixth hour so i get done early. still i am gone a lot and i kind of feel bad leaning kason home everyday. though i do love having someone to come home to. i better enjoy it now before his school starts. he has been so great doing things for me while i am gone. one day i came home and the house was totally clean. i love the smell of cleaning products as i walk in the door. knowing everything is disinfected makes me smile. i hate leaving to do lists for him and i love that i don't need to. another day kason decided to take me to the driving range. i have never golfed before and i really was terrible at first, but i really liked it. i even had some good shots and impressed the hubby. i think i liked it because i am not limited by my knees. if i stink at golf its just because i stink not because my physical body is limited. so i like golf. who knows maybe i will get good at it.

sorry for such a long post.

sorry to those who actually read it.

back to school

yesterday was my first day of school as a teacher. a student teacher that is. i am so excited to finally start student teaching and really learn how to be a teacher. i love that i am going to be working with judy cotter this semester. its going to be fun. woo hoo! graduation here i come!

one fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish

last week kason's dad took us fishing up at lake mary {near flagstaff}. we left at 3 in the morning and i slept the whole way there. it turns out i really like fishing. i caught 8 fish! kason caught 1 and dave, well, he did his public service and cleaned up the bottom of the lake. i guess i am just a natural fisherman. actually they gave me the best lure. all i had to do was put it in the water and wait for a bite. i let kason take the hooks out of the fish. that is one job that is definitely for the husband. thanks kason and dave for a great fishing trip!

5 pike + 3 perch + a beautiful day on the lake = a great fishing day!

p.s. if you are counting you will notice there are only 8 pictures of our 9 fish. one got away as kason was getting the hook out of its mouth before we could get a pic.
