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!
