First Day

Our first day was great!!! I have pictures but i am on the wrong computer. Well here are a few pictures of the family! We all started the year off in our City View Shirts as one happy family!
For those of you who do not know Todd is the Technology director and I am a teachers aid in the special Ed department. The kids love the idea we are there all the time. And so do I. There are only a couple of teacher work days in the year that I have to get someone to watch the kids. Its great!!!! Hope everyone is starting the year out great!

New Room!

Here are a few pictures of my room at City View Elem. The teacher Kari and I have really hit it off. We are a great team! She is the teacher for the behavioral room and I am her aid. We only have a few kids. And they are not in our class room full time. When they are in regular class we go in to their rooms and work with the other teachers. I am a little scared about helping the 6th grade algebra teacher. I told her that I would be her oldest student in the class. She laughed and of course said, "oh you will catch on". Oh how I hope I do!!! I am willing to learn :)! School starts Monday so my blogging maybe brief until the weekends. I am very excited about the new year and what God has in store for me at my new job!

Fun with the Cousins

Well after a day of rest from the birthday social! We headed for Houston to take the kids to the Childrens Museum! We spent the night in humble and had a blast! Here are some pics of the musuem. We did everything from painting portiats to launching rockets. We built forts and sailed boats! These museums are a blast! Here is few pics to get you strarted. I am falling asleep so I better go to bed.

Be watching I am home and plan to post happy b-day Lauren(my niece) and fun at the Houston museum!
We had a great and safe trip. Got home and walked in the church doors to a wonderful service!
The poor kids were tired they had been in the car since noon and we stopped by the house, picked up Todd, and the sandwiches he made and drove straight to church. The music was starting as we walked in the door at 7:30. Thanks Babe for the sandwiches! It usually takes us 5-6hrs to get home but today it took 7 1/2 hrs there was a lot of wrecks & construction on the road. We only stopped one time n our side of Dallas for a quick break. Glad we are home!

School starts in 19 days! The kids are excited! I have class all next week and then start at my new school the next week! And we are buying our house from my parents and are hopefully going to close on it next week! Busy next couple of weeks I will try to keep you posted!
