Classroom Makeover

Does this look like a room in need of a makeover? I was growing quite of fond of the carpeting on the walls!

I found out yesterday that my classroom was going to be remodeled and I wasn’t too happy. By looking at the pictures, you may wonder why I wouldn’t be glad to have my classroom redone. There is one “tiny” problem. School starts in two weeks!! That is supposed to be enough time to gut my room, redo ceiling tiles and lights, install new electrical outlets, drywall, paint, and have everything back in the room and ready to go. Seems like a lofty goal to me but what do I know about construction!! I spent all day today cleaning my room. Keep your fingers crossed for Aug. 12th. It should be an interesting start to the school year to say the least.

New House Pic- Take 2

Sorry, you will actually need to copy that link in a new browser! It didn't work out like I intended.

Another New House Picture

You can click on the link below to see a colored picture of the new house we plan on building. I tried to add the picture to the blog but it wouldn’t let me.

Happy Birthday, Karter!

Our nephew, Karter, celebrated his first birthday on Sunday.
As you can see from the before, during, and after pictures, he really enjoyed his cake!!

Birthday Gifts

The gift that Kyle and I got him was quite a hit. It inflates and has balls in it (like at the McDonald’s play land but on a much smaller scale). He did a good job of sharing it with big brother. He also enjoyed playing on his new toy fire truck.

July 4th Canoe Trip

We went canoeing with family and friends over the fourth of July weekend. Then we had a cookout when we got back. It was a lot of fun. Hopefully it will become an annual event so mark your calendars for next year!!! I didn't get a lot of pictures because I couldn't take my camera with me on the mighty Eel River. There is one of the canoes that White's loaned us and a picture of my brother Kyle with his girlfriend Becky. Also, I didn't tip the canoe once! For those of you that know me this is quite an accomplishment!
