Ten on Thursday

1. Today marks the 3rd snow day in my student teaching career, out of the two weeks I have been there! Tomorrow marks the fourth! (Not that I mind it at ALL, since no matter what I only go until May 6th. All other years when I'm an actual teacher I will have to make it up.)

2. Zach had his first math test last night and he got an 87! I am so proud of him!

3. It was awesome to just watch the snow fall all day long! I also got to make snow cream and Nellie tried a little!

4. My little sister, Suzanne, went to her orientation at Western today and is moving the rest of her things in on Saturday or Sunday. I can't remember which!

5. I taught my first lesson yesterday! I am starting with math and I didn't really think it went that well, but my teacher said it went fine! Yay?

6. Zach found out this week that his Grandma Scheller has Leukemia. They think it is a treatable kind and if they can get rid of it, it will stay gone. Please keep all of us in your prayers and that the Lord would be with her and the doctors as they treat her!

7. We got to take supper to our friends from church, Justin and Kristin, who just had a baby last monday, January 10th. Baby Jackson was perfect in every way and had the cutest little nose! He was also a very well behaved little guy and wanted to sleep the whole time we were there! Too bad his Mama and Daddy are wanting him to sleep at NIGHT instead of the day! Ha! : ) I can say though It makes me more anxious for a little bundle o' joy. But don't any of ya'll worry, because the sensible part of me still tells me it is SO not the time for that yet! Plus, what would poor Nellie girl think?!

8. Speaking of our dog-child, she was l-o-v-i-n-g the snow today! She was so happy as she ran around in the snow. She would dig her face down in the snow and then have it all over her nose and eyebrows. Sadly, I could not get her to take a good picture today!

9. This weekend I am babysitting over night for some of my favorite little kiddos! Seeing as they may or may not sleep through the night, I may repeal my want for kids even soon! (Especially since one loves to display the terrible twos!)

10. We got Nellie a doggy bed at Bed, Bath, and Beyond last Friday! She is still sleeping in her kennel at night of course (why break a good habit,) so it is just for her to lounge around in during the day! She does loves it though! It did take her a while to warm up to. It was so funny because she started out by sitting beside it, then half-way in it, and then finally she slept in it. Now she knows it is hers and she knows exactly what its used for!

Also, I know this is a picture less post! (Somewhat boring, right?) I just don't have the energy to upload them tonight, so I may upload them on here tomorrow (since it's a SNOW DAY after all!) : ) So if you really, really care, check back later!

Valentine's Day and the Quickest Weekend Ever

Valentine's morning I treated myself to a heart-shaped chicken biscuit from Chick-fil-a.  They were BOGO free AND I got a survey for a free chicken sandwich.  That in and of itself made my day! : )                                                       Friday evening Zach and I tried to go out for Valentine's Day.  We thought we were early enough to beat the rush, but it turned out we weren't.   We ended up going back home with a quick stop through Donut Bank to get dessert and then we had a DiGiorno pizza and watched the Olympics.  Can you feel the romance? Haha.                                                                                                     Yummy Whoopie Pie!                                                                                          My Valentine! Saturday morning began gloriously at 9:20 a.m. It seems like it's been forever since I slept that late, but it was wonderful!  I met my friend, Jennifer, and he

Christmas Eve

Our Christmas festivities started with Zach's family on Christmas Eve!  We opened presents and ate!  I'll let the pictures do most of the talking!  As you can see, Christmas is so more magical when there are little ones to spoil! : ) Mrs. Claus house shoes from Nana and Poppy!  Mmmmm, paper!  We got Zach's dad a long magnet on wheels.  We hope he liked it!! Haha, it was one of those gifts that was more of a necessity I think!  She was excited!  We are glad she liked it!  We got Zach's mom a record player that is a 5-in-1 system!  Isaiah's sweater we got him!  Its pockets are in the shape of monkey hands too, so I couldn't resist how cute it was!  He is a cute little monkey too!  Book set from us!  Love If You Give A Mouse.... series!  He is saying. "Ohhh, paper!  I love that!"  Make-up set from us!  He looooved the paper!  Isaiah opening his Leap Frog laptop from us!  He lik

Ten on Thursday

1. Zach is on Spring Break this week! Even if it is just from his one class, we still enjoyed it! I actually got to have him with me all last night! 2. I am almost done with my first week in third grade. So far, so good! The kids seem to really like me and I'm becoming rather fond of them as well! 3. I was working out last night and accidentally kicked Nellie in the side of her head. She is okay, but Zach may still be dying of laughter! I felt awful and was trying to pick her up as she was trying to scurry away from me. She must have thought I did it intentionally! Poor baby! She got lots of hugs and kisses after that though! 4. We have kept our sink free of dirty dishes for over a week now! This may not sound like such a feat, but trust me, when you don't have a dishwasher, it is! 5. Tomorrow is the "Spring Fling" carnival at my school. I am going to help set it up after school, which should be fun! 6. Warrick County School Corporation announced this past week that t
