*SIGH*

Wow, I am terrible at this!

Happy Spring Break! I am busy working at the scrapbook store and catching up on school stuff. I am also scrapbooking a lot this week.

I will try to post pics and be better at adding to this blog!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and a great New Year. As always, being the old married couple that we are, we stayed up watching movies (actually it was the Heroes TV Series on DVD) then paused it to watch the ball drop, made a toast, finished our DVD watching and went to bed. So thrilling!

I have been enjoying these last 2 weeks being off of school. Nathaniel has taken some days off to spend time with me as well. Needless to say I feel accomplished because we have gotten a lot of things done around the house.

I hope everyone is well.

Happy 2008!!

'Tis the Season!

I love December for the holiday lights, Christmas trees up in my house, and for the weather starting to cool off.

We put up 3 trees this year (only because our tallest one is 4 ft.). So we have a 4ft tree, a 3.5 ft tree and a miniscule tree.

On the 3.5 ft tree I have all of my ornaments that my grandmother made me. Every year, she give all of the cousins (and her children) a ceramic ornament that she painted. So I have one for every year that I have been alive. She also recently gave me the ornaments for the next 8 years.

I wrapped those and I am going to put one under the tree each year. Check it out!

I hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and Holiday season!

Autism Walk

Today I participated in the Walk Now for Autism at Tempe Town Lake. I raised $281.00 thanks to help from everyone! Devine Memories (scrapbook store) walked together for Autism (we are in the red shirts). We had a great time. The walk was a 5K in beautiful Arizona November weather of 90 degrees. It was fabulous! I got to meet Luis Gonzalez (now with the Los Angelas Dodgers) and Orlando Hudson (Arizona Diamondbacks). There were out there supporting us as well!

Ahhh.. School

Well, I guess you can tell that school has started. I have not put a post since before it started. Well, we are now on fall break. I was hoping to update my blog more than that.
School is in full swing. I have a great class this year. I have 24 kids which is less than I have had in a while.
Nothing much new on the home front. Nathaniel and I are planning a trip with some friends to Six Flags at the end of this month. Just surviving until then!
Hope everyone is doing well.

Harry Potter Geek

I did it! I went last night to Borders and got my copy of the final Harry Potter book. I went with my sister, who dressed up like Luna Lovegood. We had a blast. They gave us wrist bands so we didn't have to stand in line and then they called us by the colors at midnight. I didn't get my book until 1:15am. I also got the box that the books were shipped in. They did costume contests, trivia contests, and raffles for a signed poster and 1st spot in line. I tried to read the 1st part of it in line but I couldn't concentrate on it. Who knows how long people were there!

A New Beginning

Well I did it, I finally started a Blog. I have a friend all the way on the other side of the country who asked if I had one yet and she wanted to see pictures from my last trip, but no way to show her.
Now I can!
Also, now that I have a digital camera, I will be able to show off my pics!

I hope you enjoy.
