My SPRING BREAK!

This last week has been SPRING BREAK for me. I have enjoyed it but I am excited to go back to teaching. I realized that I just might miss the kids when I get done. Student teaching has had its ups and downs, but overall I have really enjoyed it. Thank you cooperating teacher for being so supportive and helpful. They have been wonderful.

I will return to teach the students for 2 1/2 weeks is all, then ..... dun, dun, dun GRADUATION!
Now I just hope to land a good teaching job.

Things I have done during the break
  • cleaned the apartment
  • worked at GEAR UP
  • started planning our trip to PERU!! - got some mean shots -
  • worked out! Haven't done that in a while - want to keep going
  • read a good book "Teaching with Love and Logic" - still have 200pgs to go
  • Applied for teaching jobs! -- what a project
  • Spent lots of time with Justin, even if it was just being by him while he studied
  • sent my little missionary bro some cookies!
  • Enjoyed productive scripture study - need to continue!
  • tried some new recipes and checked out food storage blogs
  • fixed our bedspread that has been falling apart - 6 months! it's got to last 10 yrs. :)
  • Checked out some banking options for us
  • bought a pot to plant something in it -- need to do something with it -- ha ha
  • pulled weeds in the dirt we do have :)
  • caught up with a few friends
It may not seem very fun to you -- but for me I loved it. And I can't believe that I ran out of time --- life is wonderful!

I had an interview today with Box Elder School District. I was more myself than any of my other most recent interviews. I definitely had help from above.

Justin and I have been so blessed! We have so much -- especially family and friends who are loving, supportive and a ton of fun! Thanks!

Engineering Lab vs. Hawaii

It's Friday night of Spring Break and we are sitting in the Engineering lab ...... Justin watching March Madness and me blogging.  Some people may think it's a little on the boring side, but I have to say we are both quite enjoying ourselves.  As Spring Break approached we were under the impression that we just might be welcoming our baby boy sooner than later. On March 6th, I was dilated to a 2 and 70% effaced..... the Dr said he could be here in 2-3 days or 2 weeks. Justin and I had a couple of sleepless nights after hearing this. Jumping at any sign of labor -- makes me laugh now.  The days have passed by with few contractions and no real progress. I have to say my emotions have been all over. At times I so want to be done being pregnant and have this little boy in my arms and then the next minute I am soaking up the time Justin and I have left to easily (well 9 months pregnant easily) hop on the motorcycle for a ride up town. After reading, learning, and practi

Happy Halloween

Thanks to the Schmidt pumpkin patch  I have several cute little pumpkins I've always wanted and thanks to the Daniels party for the cute carved pumpkins that really set the Halloween tone! The Schmidt Sisters!  October 23rd we had the annual Grandpa Jess Birthday Party get together! I felt like it had been forever since the Daniels family had been together.  Not enough catching up happened for me, but it was sure fun to be around family and carve pumpkins. It helped me start to get into the Halloween spirit. Bummer that I did not take pictures at the party. But these pumpkins made me smile each day I saw them on our porch. Halloween was so much fun when you were a kid, but as I have aged the holiday has lost it's excitement. For Halloween this year we happened to be in Salt Lake with the Schmidts. Justin was presenting his IHC idea and I had the day to myself. The Schmidt family gathered at the pumpkin patch for pictures before the night of trick or treating would

Going to the park with Sam has always been enjoyable, but lately it has become a lot more fun! Sam is a thrill seeker for sure! He loves going down the slide head first! Sam screams when we walk away from the swing - He loves swinging! He loves when we peep through the different holes Yes, he is crawling right to the slide, letting himself down head first
