Happy Memorial Day!

We have had such a relaxing weekend! It has been nice! I did not do good with my diet though! :( It began Friday night when we went out to dinner with my bil and sil. Saturday they came over and we had dinner together again! My sil and I both did one page from our fishing trip last weekend! That is the lo I am sharing.


Yesterday we went to my parents to have dinner with them. Today we were going to make steaks but on our way home from checking out my brother's new condo we decided to have Chili's for dinner! Bad, bad, bad! I feel bad, and so I need to get back on track tomorrow!

So glad this week is short! We have a lot going on at school being that it's the end of the school year! Tomorrow is a super minimum day so that us teachers can do some work on our smart goals that we set for this last trimester. Wednesday I have a planning day and I will be working on report cards. That evening we have a retirement tea for our districts retiree's. Each school gets up and sings/dances. We are doing the hula! Should be funny!!! Then only 2 days till the weekend again!
Have a great week!

Our fishing trip!

Last Thursday was my open house at school and it went very well. Lots of parents came! I did something new this year, we made a caterpillar with grass seeds. We used woman's knee high nude socks, filled them with soil that had grass seeds mixed in and let them grow. Then we glued on some eyes and such and this is what we ended up with. The parents and the kids loved them! Some of my students kept asking when they would turn into real butterflies!!

Friday morning at 1:45 am we left with my my husband's family and we headed to the mountains. It was way too early for me!! We made it to Rock Creek by breakfast time and met my parents and one brother. We fished the whole weekend. I caught 5 fish on my own!!! Joe caught a lot more! It was fun, very beautiful and relaxing!! Here are a few pictures from our weekend!



Have a great week!

It's Monday!

The weekends always fly by so fast! On Saturay Michelle and I had a great time at our crop. I finished 5 los. I thought I would get more done but I really love all of them. We had a really good time and they fed us well, we had Baja Fresh for lunch, one of my fav's! Yesterday was a busy day starting with weighing in at our ww meeting. I lost another 2 pounds! Then I ran to the grocery store, Wal-mart, Sam's club and my classroom before heading to the in-laws. We had a great bbq lunch with tri tip, chicken and lots of salads. Can't forget the cake! Then we head to my parents for dinner, it was another round of bbq skewers and salads! And my mom made her famous srawberry pie, nothing like the store! It was all so yummy! Here are a few lo's!


This week is going to be busy with Open House on Thursday and then heading to the mountains on Friday for a weekend of fishing!
Have a great week!

Too long!

It's been too long since my last post! I can't believe it's already May! Were do I begin...our trip to Monterey was great! We went to the aquarium, did lots of walking, sat on the beach and drove on the 17 mile drive(it's where Pebble Beach is)! It was a really relaxing trip and so beautiful there!
This was taken on the 17 mile drive.



The last few weeks have been super busy, I haven't had any free time to scrap. I have so many pictures from our trip that I can't wait to scrap!! I hope to make time this weekend.

Last week I went with a friend to Sacramento for a 3 day teaching conference. It was good. There were lots of good workshops. The food was horrible though! We walked to the Cheesecake Factory the last night with some other teachers from our district. It was yummy and nice to eat something other than hotel food! There was also a mall in walking distance so after dinner we went shopping and we all bought shoes at Macy's. They were having a great sale!

Thanks for reading and I hope to get some pages done this weekend!! Have a good rest of the week.
