Since you asked about the island...

at 11/16/08 1:55PM

Well, it's not as impressive when you know the details...

We were camping on an island with a large group and the day we were scheduled to leave, it was too windy for the boats to transport us back, so we were stranded for a few hours until a larger boat was able to "rescue" us.

:)

good to talk to you the other day:) glad you're doing well!

LOL!

Oh, that's good! So you didn't do anything like forget to light the signal fire or fall in a pit with Daniel so they couldn't find you. In other words, nothing Gilligan-ish? ;-) I'm glad you were "rescued".

haha! that's awesome.

CAN I GET THREE (HUNDRED) CHEERS FOR THE RAYS?!?

at 10/22/08 10:56PM

Right now they're down by one in the bottom of the ninth, but that's beside the point. :/

So...we got stranded on an island last weekend...

...for a few hours.

I'm a regular Gilligan! :)

Do we get anymore details about being stranded?

by hmjmom at 10/23/08 5:56AM

by emmybear at 10/23/08 7:25AM

Things teachers love...

at 09/07/08 2:51PM

...finishing a chapter in a book just in time for music class, then hearing students complain that they'd rather keep reading.

...calling a stop to independent reading time to begin teacher-directed P.E. and hearing a couple students say, "But this book is SO good!"

...ditching a science lesson right before teaching it and teaching it another way, seeing students actively engaged and understanding the impromptu lesson, brainstorming solutions to a real-world problem, then gathering them all around the computer to see how real scientists solved the problem.

Sounds exciting! Itis SO wonderful when kids want to read.

by hmjmom at 09/07/08 5:14PM
i want to read a book right now...

by emmybear at 09/08/08 10:12AM

Birthday!

at 08/16/08 4:08PM

So after a crazy week of preplanning, Daniel and I are headed out for dinner with my mom and sister (dad's out of town) to celebrate my birthday. Daniel gets a call on the way there from his brother telling him that he needs to get over there...something urgent. I was worried and asked if I could come with him. Instead, Daniel drops me off at dinner and leaves. I apologize to mom and jen. After dinner they drop me off at the apartment (b/c dan had the car) and, long story SHORT, it was a surprise party! Mom and Jen were in on the whole thing!

My sweetie is so sweet! I am very proud of all of the effort he put into it! :) Wish you could've been there.

I love surprises that are really surprises! Happy Birthday. I would have loved to have been a part of the celebration.

by hmjmom at 08/16/08 5:13PM
You will be a great teacher!

by hmjmom at 08/16/08 5:34PM
