Facebook is the place to stay connected!!

So I checked out facebook for the first time today....ya I know... Oh my gosh! Everyone is on there. The school actually encourages the teachers to have a facebook account and doesn't block it on the school server. (My space, not so lucky.) It was really cool to see some people from a lifetime ago. It was way fun to see who was on and where they are.

So, the snow is gone. It has been in the fourties for the last few days. We've had cloud cover, but no rain so there were a couple of days that I didn't bother with a coat or even a jacket...(I can hear Mom gasping now....yep, there was my entire name escaping her lips....wonder when I'll get a phone call.) The wind has been pretty uptempo which has cut off a lot of phone calls....ya, that's the story I'm going with...the wind. ;) Today brought a bit of sleet and tonight it is clearer so there will be lovely ice tomorrow...so much fun!!! Hopefully we will be able to see the Aurora Borealis (northern lights) this season.
K, enough with the weather. Had our Holiday Concert last Tuesday and It went really well... My band and choir both went well and our actor was fabulous. We had a song called The Chritmas Present and we had one of the 6th grade choir kids unwrap gifts with the vocal cues...one of the gifts was my empty Wii box. When he unwrapped it you could hear the kids in the audience ohh and ahh, it was great. Both groups are growing and I am excited for their progress.

The last day of school for the calendar year includes dancing performances for the kids that they learned during pe. the 7th and 8th grade students are doing line dancing and the pe teacher in the 6th grade was informed he had to come up with something different. So, we're tininkling. It is fabulous!! (6th grade pe only meets every other day when the 7th and 9th have it every day.) We decided to combine forces (poor kids) so the kids go during their general music slot from Wednesday on. I am so excited about this. (We are using a Bob Marley Christmas song.)

Talked to Clint this week a couple of times...he finally got a phone for his birthday. (An envy.) Today the phone called me all on it's own...smart phone. Reece really sounds like he is growing up, I can't wait to get pictures...hint, hint. I am sad to miss Clint's first time passing the sacrament, I can't believe how much both Reece and Clint are growing up.
