Spelling Tuesday

Okay, so Caleb and I had such a great valentine's day. If romantic stuff makes you barf, you are probably going to want to stop reading this now. He he. Okay, so first of all, I had to work on ACTUAL valentine's day, so we had plans to go out on Friday the 15th, but Caleb surprised me at work with a dozen roses and chocolate. I don't care if it is cliche, I still love it. Then on Friday, we got all dressed up ( I looked hot, by the way. I even had fake eyelashes!) and we went out to a fancy dinner at Piropos (which is a lovely resturaunt with incredible views and great food). During dinner I gave Caleb his valentines day present. I made him a crossword puzzle, and everytime he correctly filled in a word, he got a different present. Like when it said "I love _________ into bed with you!" The answer was "Climbing" and he got a gift certificate to go rock climbing. Some of the presents were totally dumb and funny though. Like I took some of our ...

I told my principal a few days ago that I don't plan on teaching next year. I don't really think he was surprised (he seemed like he might have already known, I am sure someone let the cat out of the bag). I will know a lot more in about a month, as to wether or not we have gotten the loan we need to start our business, but I think that either way I can't teach kindergarten another year. It is just way too much stress. So pray that our business has a smooth start and that we open on time (Fall of this year). I really can't wait to start it. I think about it all the time!

the original GHOSTBUSTERS movie- 1984! I love the 80's! Caleb and I are going to an 80's party next weekend. I am pretty pumped about it. I got my outfit. It is a stone-washed denim mini dress (long sleeve and shoulder pads) and the best part it- it is BEDAZZLED. He he! I can't wait! Oh crap! What the heck is in this lady's closet!!!!

Those of you that know me, know that I love to sing, and that I know a freakish amount of songs. I have decided to put that to good use and win myself a million dollars. I am making the audition tape today for the show "Don't Forget the Lyrics". Have you ever watched it? It's pretty much like karaoke but then you have to complete part of the song. It's kind of set up like "Who wants to be a millionaire" in that you have "life lines" which will be my parents, and eliminate two answers and stuff like that. So pray that they pick me, cause I could really use that million dollars!

Is that you have a whole day off with no plans! I literally stayed in my pj's until 4:00pm today! Hey, I couldn't drive anywhere, cause it was way too icy! He he. It was great! I did do some laundry, and I worked out, but that was about it. Movies on the couch! Woo Hoo!

We had such a great Christmas. Calebs mom and dad, sister and brother came up from Bolivar and my parents came over for Christmas dinner on the 23rd. It was really nice this year because I only had to make the green beans, potatoes, and blueberry cobbler. My dad brought the ham, and Caleb's sister Michelle brought the rolls (yum). It was fun to get everyone together. The next day we went to Nebraska furniture mart and browsed (that was fun) and then went over to my parents house to play games and just have fun. Then Caleb and I went to church and had our own quiet Christmas Eve together (watching it's a Wonderful Life by the fire). On Christmas day we opened our stockings from each other (I got the world's best robe from Victoria's Secret!) and then went over to my parents to have lunch with them and my brother and his wife. They brought their new Wii and we played a lot of tennis, bowling, and boxing. My arms are so sore! The day after christmas we hit the st...

’ This little poem just about sums it up. 'Twas the days before Christmas,And all through the school,The teachers were tryingTo just keep their cool.The hallways were hungWith Christmas art.(Some made in NovemberTo get a head start!) The children were bouncingOff ceilings and walls,And seemed to forgetHow to walk in the halls. When out of the teacher's loungeWith "holiday shirts"And "jingle bell jewels,"The teachers looked festiveEnforcing the rules. There came such a chatter,The principal went inTo see what was the matter. The teachers were hidingAnd trying to refuel,On coffee and cookiesAnd treats from the Yule. When what to their wonderingEars do they hear,But the ringing of school bellsIt's the children they fear! More rapid than reindeerThe little ones came,And the teachers all shoutedAnd called them by name; Walk Vincent! Walk Tanner!Walk, Tyler and Sammy!Sit Jamie! Sit Laura!Sit, Tara and Tammy! To your desks in the room!To your spots in the line!...
