CANTATA DAY
Our church choir performed the cantata "O Holy Night" that we'd been practicing since August.


I had a solo.
I didn't do very well.
Luckily, everyone else did.
Molly got to play a shepherd.

GROCERY SHOPPING SURPRISE
My lovely friend from Down Under had mentioned awhile back that she'd heard the US was now carrying a favorite cookie (or "bikkie" as she calls it, I think)from her homeland.
Well...I found them!

Now, to go back and buy them since the kids are gone and I might could actually try one!

LAST MINUTE DAY
Finished up shopping with the hubby and had a date night.
Then home for Christmas Eve with my kids since they would be leaving on the real Christmas Eve day to go to their dad's.

Molly starts off our Christmas Eve by reading the Birth of Christ story from Luke chapter 2. (I love that I didn't even have to mention it...she just went and got her Bible and announced that she would do it this year.)

CHRISTMAS EVE/OUR CHRISTMAS DAY
The kids were up and at'em early, of course.
Presents to open.
Everyone seemed happy.
They were more excited about what they'd bought for me, with their own money!

CHRISTMAS DAY
Dinner at the mother-in-law's = success!



And now..for a busy week.
Cleaning, visiting with friends, getting ready for to get back on schedule at school...
kids are gone to their dad's all week so hopefully I can get a lot done!


I am participating in the 2010 Mommytography 365 Project!
For this year long project I will be posting an image a day.
I am hoping this will...
• help me find new things around me to focus my attention on
• share my world with my friends and family more
Anyone interested in photography can join, no need to be a Mommytographer.

So..it's a new year. And I haven't posted here since..umm..May. I have been thinking of deleting this blog..or at least all the entries in it, and starting over. Maybe a school blog. I see tons of cute ones everyday when I'm perusing pinterest. I could do that. maybe. no...probably not. But I might try. This place did not turn out the way I wanted it to. I have my personal "diary" blogs/journals elsewhere. This one is too public for that anymore. I should make it something fun. I don't want to lose it. Erica made it so cute for me. I don't even know how to do that... or, for that matter, delete the entries I have here. I can't find the "dashboard" button that use to be there. hmmmm.. This may take more time than I thought.

Alphabee Thursday: E is for Expectations

Image
Today is Alphabee-Thursday. That means my blog is brought to you by the letter E. is for yep...that's right. Expectations Such a big word. Dictionary.com defines it as Something expected. hmmm....kinda vague, so I looked up "EXPECT": 1.to look forward to; regard as likely to happen; anticipate the occurrence or the coming of 2. to look for with reason or justification: There are certain things I just expect in life: * I expect the light to come on when I flip the switch. * I expect the microwave to pop my popcorn perfectly in about 3 minutes. * I expect whatever I'm plugging into the electrical socket to work when I turn it on. * I expect to be given correct change when paying for a purchase. I also have expectations of people in my life. *I expect people to do what they say they will do *I expect my children to do what I ask of them, when I ask it *I expect kindness instead of rudeness in public *I expect honesty from others. *I expect my dog to jump all over me as...

C is for Crayon

Image
Today is Alphabe-Thursday. That means my blog is brought to you by the letter C...so let's get right down to it. is for ahhh...the simplicity of crayons! An essential tool in my profession, and yet such a vital part of our lives. Crayons have the ability to color our world. They add life to simple drawings, brighten up the darkest of pictures, and create rainbows on rainy days. After completing a writing assignment my students will often ask...."Do we have to draw a picture?" "Of course you do!! And use your crayons!" I will reply. And then the real feelings of their topic show through. Without color, how dull our lives would be. No yellow sunshiny days. No pink cotton candy. No blue skies and green grass. Lollipops would be tasteless and lemonade would be just water. The fashion industry would go bust and movies would not be worth seeing. Crayons add life. They add spirit. And they make me smile. Even tho a wee little piece of one was the bane of my world on M...
